Robin Cosgrove Prize

Description:
The Robin Cosgrove Prize is a competition.
It invites young finance professionals and advanced students to submit a paper setting out innovative ideas to promote ethics and integrity in finance.
There are two Prizes:
The global Ethics in Finance - Robin Cosgrove Prize. Currently the Prize is USD 20,000.
The regional Ibero-American Prize (Etica en las Finanzas - Premio Robin Cosgrove), supported by MAPFRE. Currently the Prize is USD 15,000.
We invite your ideas about how to strengthen ethical behaviour. Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do may seem simple but in many areas of finance, consideration of ethics and integrity are squeezed.

The third edition of the global Prize (and the second of the Ibero-American Prize) was run in 2010-2011.
