VATICAN CITY (CNS) — When Pope Francis condemns a “cult of money” and the “dictatorship” of a faceless economy, he isn’t trying to damper entrepreneurial spirit or shutter business.

What entrepreneurs and leaders need, he has emphasized, is having a proper relationship with wealth — that their money serve, not enslave.

Given the pope’s call for a more ethical economy of inclusion, the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, Catholic Relief Services and the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business held a two-day conference in mid-June to look at how financial markets could respond.
