Professional Ethics Network - Unavoidable: tackling the ethics of taxation

Join us on 5th November, for an evening of food, drink and ethical debate. Our PEN events bring together individuals from businesses and professions to discuss a range of current ethical issues.

Location: Chatered Institute for Securities and Investment, Frenchurch Street, London

Abstract
"What exactly is tax avoidance? Is it always morally wrong or can it be morally justified in certain circumstances?"

Recent tax avoidance scandals, including Amazon, Starbucks and Jimmy Carr, have brought ethics to the forefront of financial debates. Presented by Dr Liz Ellis, this event brings arguments from the philosophical literature to the public debate in an attempt to shed more light on the issues.  There will also be an interactive case study session where everyone will get a chance to have their say!

Event information
The event will conclude with refreshments, and attendees are invited to network and ask further questions about tax avoidance and applied ethics.

This event will be of interest to:

  • Professionals in the financial sector
  • Business owners 
  • Individuals interested in Professional and Applied Ethics 

Tickets for this event are available on our Eventbright page
