When you have selected your company, research and cover the following points in a well written essay. Use APA7 format and topical headings.
Selected company: Wells Fargo
1. In an introductory paragraph identify the company, the topic and a well crafted thesis statement.
2. Briefly describe the company and the nature of its business and corporate business environment. Do not spend a lot of time on the history of the company, but do describe sufficiently to create meaningful context. This should only need to be a paragraph.
3. Research, define and discuss the legal issues and regulatory environment for the companys consumer or antitrust issue. (i.e., What are the specific laws involved?) Include case law.
4. Ethical dilemma and two ethical frameworks: Identify the ethical dilemma that the company presents with respect to its antitrust or consumer problem. This should be encapsulated in a single sentence.
5. Evaluate two ethical frameworks with respect to the companys managements decisions that led to the situation. One of these should be the ethical framework you identify as the framework the company followed in its decision-making. The other should be a contrasting ethical framework that might have produced a different situation for the company.
6. Other legal topics that relate to the companys business: Also, clearly define and evaluate three (3) additional legal topics (NOT antitrust or consumer protection laws) that we covered this term and that are explained in your text and required readings, and apply them to the companys business. (Hint: Review the legal topics in the textbook and cite to the the text in your analysis. We covered many subjects. Examples: contracts, torts, product liability, bankruptcy, securities & stocks trading, employment issues, defamation, privacy, ADR, etc. Include illustrative case law.)
7. General recommendations for business leadership and managers that you have learned from this study (not just for the company you have selected, but for operating and managing a business).
8. Conclusion.
9. References list
