Mr. Vivek Vig
 Ethics in Business impacts the way a corporation organises itself around profit maximisation to nurture an eco-system that creates and sustains value for all stakeholders – the employees, the shareholders, the communities & the environment that the organisation operates. A truly ethical organisation is one that goes beyond legal compliance and operates in a manner that positively impacts all stakeholders each and every day.
Currently pursuing an entrepreneurial role as MD & Group CEO of Destimoney, a retail financial services organisation catering to middle India. An alumnus of IIM Bangalore, Mr. Vig has a rich and varied banking experience spanning over two decades across several emerging markets – Poland, Taiwan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and India. Working in so many diverse environments and cultures, Mr. Vig has been exposed to the similarities in business ethics in corporations across different geographies, cultures and levels of economic development.
This has allowed him to accept that business and ethics can co-exist to create innovation that has the power to positively impact and change lives.
