As a former student of Professor Sury, I have experienced the passion and energy that he and the Santa Clara University community exude around SIFIRM. It is contagious. I am confident that SIFIRM will add great value to Santa Clara University’s mission and Jesuit reputation. The research done here will surely aid in solving some of our most pressing global problems, offering a beacon of light for those interested in delving deeper into the ethical issues of the worldwide financial industry.

Sharath Sury, Sanjiv Das, Meir Statman, and Hersh Shefrin: they are all at the top of their fields. As SCU is a Jesuit school, it does seem to make sense that the start of the new "moral compass" should begin there. I'm a fan and supporter. I'm from the industry.
