Abstract
Business ethics are not only an effective method of competitive struggle but also measurable economic benefits. The sense of responsibility allows to limit arbitrariness and develop a concept of freedom that will take into account the needs of others. In the face of a crisis of values, the ethical attitudes and moral issues are of particular importance, both in the professions of public trust and in the economic sphere. The analysis confronts two separate groups, those who enter the market and establish their business and those who already are in the market and have to manage. The attitude of the people involved in the market depends on the atmosphere on it. Due to this, the authors analyze the beliefs of the students to ethical issues and their views on the rules which control the economy because they will be responsible for the local market.
