Sumario:Purpose: The purpose of this article was to review the book of Christoph Lütge and Matthias Uhl (2021) entitled Business ethics. An economically informed perspective (Oxford University Press). Design/methodology/approach: The approach followed is to give an overview of the book’s content, appraise the positive contribution followed by some critical questions for further discussions. Findings/results: The key finding is that the book, indeed, contributes to establish ethics with an economic method as a novel approach. Practical implications: Practical implications are found in both the approach to global ethics and especially to risk management design. Originality/value: The value of the book lies in its use as a handbook at a graduate level and as a guide to managers to implement corporate-level ethics.
