Conflict of Interest in the Professions
The notion of conflict of interest is more relevant today than ever. Ethical sensitivities about the relationship between professionals and those they serve is a source of constant debate. This book sets a new standard for work on this perennial topic, collecting a set of practical essays by top applied ethicists on a wide variety of professions and occupations. Some conflicts of interest arise because a profession takes on many roles while serving one goal; others take on one role but serve multiple goals.

Conflict of Interest in Global, Public and Corporate Governance
Conflict of interest occurs at all levels of governance, ranging from local to global, both in the public and the corporate and financial spheres. There is increasing awareness that conflicts of interest may distort decision-making processes and generate inappropriate outcomes, thereby undermining the functioning of public institutions and markets. However, the current worldwide trend towards regulation, which seeks to forestall, prevent and manage conflicts of interest, has its price. Drawbacks may include the stifling of decision-making processes, the loss of expertise among decision-makers and a vicious circle of distrust. This interdisciplinary and international book addresses specific situations of conflict of interest in different spheres of governance, particularly in global, public and corporate governance.

Management of Conflict of Interest in Selected EU Agencies
"Conflict of interest situations can occur almost in any work¬place at any time. If they are not handled correctly they can negatively affect the decision-making process, give rise to scan¬dals and cause reputational damage. The court evaluated policies and procedures for the manage-ment of conflict of interest situations for four selected agen¬cies making vital decisions affecting the safety and health of consumers, namely the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). The court found that none of the selected agencies adequately managed the conflict of interest situations. A number of short¬comings of varying degrees have been identified in agency-spe¬cific policies and procedures as well as their implementation." -- P. [4] of cover.
