Итог: | We show that social capital has a strong mitigating effect on financial adviser misconduct in the United States. Moreover, advisers who have committed misconduct are also more likely to relocate to counties with a relatively lower level of social capital than that of his previously residing county.

Our results shed new light on social capital as an informal governing and monitoring mechanism against individual unethical behavior. |
