Nearly all  decisions by investors  are based on greed to make a profit or fear of losing capital. That is not corruption, that is the way it works.  For centuries, Christians banned lending money at interest, and progress did not exist. Jews were banned from lending money to other Jews (because the Bible banned it) but they could lend money to Gentiles, and that was how Europe eventually developed industry.


Islam bans lending money at interest, and a bunch of clever ruses are used so they can develop, but Muslim nations are far less developed as a result, except for several countries with huge resources and small populations.


Christianity, Judaism and Islam are all opposed to capitalism, based on prohibitions about lending money.
