Most of them are claimed to be technical in nature such as the use of financial engineering, absence of sophisticated, reliable an innovative hedging and risk management instruments. Recently, especially after the 2008 global financial crisis , the focus is shifting to ethics.There is increasing awareness that the unethical behaviors of companies and investors are the main culprit to the crises.There is quite a volume of literature that has discussed this ethical subject from both conventional and Islamic perspectives. The present study has focused on the areas of commonality in both types of literature. It has employed content analysis method to identify the causes of financial crises due to unethical behaviors cited in selected literatures under review.
