Compliance bedeutet, grundlegend und allgemein betrachtet: Tun, was man muss, weil man es soll. Integrity hingegen: Wollen, was man soll. Beide Seiten hängen zusammen und bedingen einander: Compliance braucht Integrity - Integrity braucht Compliance. Diesem dialektischen Zusammenhang ist bislang zu wenig Beachtung geschenkt worden, da Compliance und Integrity als Gegensätze begriffen werden. Am Beispiel der Investmentbank Credit Suisse First Bosten wird die Notwendigkeit der Etablierung einer unverkürzten, positive Sanktionen (Belohnungen) einschliessenden Compliance aufgezeigt, ohne die eine ethisch-integrierte Unternehmenssteuerung nicht gelingen kann.

Compliance and Integrity - Two Sides of Ethics Integrated Management
In general, compliance means: Doing what one must do, because it ought to be done. Integrity means: Wanting what ought to be done. Both sides are connected and call for each other: Compliance needs integrity - integrity needs compliance. So far though, too little attention has been given to this dialectic interrelation, since compliance and integrity typically are understood as polar approaches. By the example of the investment bank Credit Suisse Boston, the necessity for establishing an unbiased concept of compliance is elaborated, which includes not only penalties, but also rewards. This concept is the prerequisite for directing the organisation towards ethically sound behaviour.

Es wird auf die Gefahr hingewiesen, dass sogenannte "Risiko-Dialoge" zu Sachzwangdiskursen werden.

The philosophical reflection on the essence of what we call the market has largely disappeared from the textbooks of the economic discipline. This paper intends to contribute to a renewal of this discourse by explicitly looking on basic concepts of mainstream market theory from an ethical point of view. There are not so much new information given; rather, a different, ethically conscious light is shed on the information we already have on the market. With its philosophical emphasis on the frame of reference, which is always normative in nature, the paper contributes to the new emerging approach of "integrative economic ethics" (integrative Wirtschaftsethik), introduced by Peter Ulrich (1998a, 1998b). After touching the interrelationship of (descriptive) theory and (normative) ethics, the outlines of a brief and, as I claim, complete theory of the basic structure of the market are sketched. Central to this theory is the view of the market as a system. This systemic view allows to explain phenomena like economic growth or unemployment as well as to discover ethical problems and to raise normative questions that are often overlooked and passed over.
