The objective of this article is to contribute to a better understanding of the contribution of ethics in banking governance. The field of investigation is Cameroon. The study covers three subsidiary banks with predominantly Pan-African capital. The empirical material results from an approach marked by documentary study and the realization of semi-structured interviews with managers and bank customers. The results of the analysis show that the banks surveyed see ethics as a governance tool that enables them to improve their image and reputation. They open a reflection on the governance model capable of promoting the consideration of ethics within the banks surveyed.

“…If corruption is a condition for access to electricity which, in turn, improves performance, it is easy to pay bribes to have access to electricity. The solution of the dilemma can only come from a collective behaviour backed by institutions (Vial and Prévot, 2013). Appropriate monitoring and incentive institutions (John et al.…”

“…However, corruption also involves many direct and indirect costs (Doh et al, 2003). At the level of the firm and from the point of view of performance analysis, one of the greatest negative effects lies in the fact that corruption diverts resources which could have been invested in productive activities (Vial and Prevot, 2013). This reduces performance and threatens the survival of the company.…”

PurposeThis paper aims to examine the relationship between the payment of bribes, the access to electricity and the productivity of informal production units (IPUs).Design/methodology/approachThe data used for this study come from the second Survey on Employment and Informal Sector conducted in 2010 by the National Institute of Statistics of Cameroon and representative at the national level. The survey was conducted among 3,560 IPUs. Survey participants reported whether they had been personally affected by corruption in the twelve months preceding the survey. Relying on the data of this survey, the recursive trivariate probit model was used to study the correlation between corruption and access to electricity.FindingsThe results reveal that the payment of bribes positively influences IPU access to electricity, and consequently access to this infrastructure has a positive impact on company performance.Research limitations/implicationsA main limitation of this paper is the environment of study in which corruption appeared to be institutionalised. It would therefore be interesting to extend the results obtained by conducting research in other countries and also including other infrastructures such as telecommunications.Practical implicationsThe main contribution of this research is to highlight the effectiveness of the fight against corruption and its impact on the access of some basics resources that affect the performance of certain companies. Indeed, the fight against corruption would be easier if economic actors had access to certain resources and fundamental infrastructures for their activities. Thus, improving the supply of resources and infrastructures can be an important lever in the fight against corruption in Africa.Originality/valueThis research addresses a vulnerable sector vis-à-vis the pressure of the actors involved in the provision of a service essential to the activity of companies. It highlights the justification for accepting the use of corruption. Indeed, entrepreneurs are faced with a dilemma between moral standards on the one hand, and economic imperatives on the other. If corruption is a condition of access to electricity which, in turn, improves performance, it is easy to pay bribes to gain access to electricity.
