The purpose of this paper is to explore job performance, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) from an ethical perceptive. A great number of studies have extensively discussed the link between M&A and performance; however, most focused on the financial functions and strategy selections. Although ethical issues emerge in the M&A process, it is a less studied area. This study adopted the structural equation modeling approach to empirically test our hypotheses. Based on 264 samples from financial companies, data analyses indicated that ethical conduct in M&A is significantly correlated with employee job performance. Ensuring employment security and caring practices can significantly explain organizational commitment. Organizational commitment also plays a significant mediating role between a company’s ethical conduct and employee job performance. Managerial implications are also provided.

“…A substantial proportion of the literature agrees that top and senior management have the highest responsibility in promoting (dissuading) ethical (unethical) behaviour within a company (Anand et al, 2004;Finn et al, 1988;Fisher, 2000;Gellerman, 2003;Kelly, 2005;Kitson, 1996). Top managers and CEOs should communicate and promote ethics within a company through their day-to-day behaviour (Kitson, 1996;Lamb, 1999).…”

The aim of this paper is to provide empirical evidence regarding the value relevance of Italian listed companies' codes of ethics. The literature describes several studies investigating the value relevance of single non-financial ethic-related variables, but we cannot find any study aimed at examining the value relevance of codes of ethics and, therefore, this paper tries to fill this research gap. The main idea of this research is that a code of ethics, seen as a 'summarisation' of ethical variables, might be value relevant in the same way as single ethic-related information. Our hypotheses state that codes of ethics may be value relevant: 1) if the first adoption of the code of ethics is value relevant; 2) if the quality of the code of ethics is value relevant. We tested our hypotheses on the first 100 companies listed on the Italian Stock Exchange, in the years 2002-2011. Empirical results show that our hypotheses are verified. The paper also provides insights for future research and further developments.
