Ethical Banking versus traditional banking: an inmediate chage of paradigm?

Abstract

After the last financial crisis, social engagement activities carried out by the traditional banking have been seriously affected. In turn, this deficiency has been compensated by the increasingly numerous performances of the so-called ethical banking. The presented work aims to study the impact of bank restructuring and the emergence of ethical banking on the Spanish banking sector. To do this, has been to analyze the behavior of the traditional banking ratios in general, and of the solvency in particular, a sample of 16 entities of the traditional Spanish banking and 16 entities that are part of the Global Alliance for a Banking with values.
