How would religion regulate financial markets? That was the question at last night's JustShare debate.

This morning, on BBC Radio 4, Tarek El Diwany, founder of Islamic Finance, and Dr Peter Selby, the former Bishop of Worcester and author of Grace and Mortgage (DLT), discussed whether and how religious values could influence the debate about market regulation.
