This study is to identify that the efforts of business ethics build customer loyalty, and it makes customers lead to purchase behavior in the viewpoint of grasping convergence effect. The survey has proved that ethical management influences consumers' purchase behaviors, and consumers' image perception and trust on corporate play parameter role in that process. This results imply that corporate's ethical management gives increase in revenue and reputation to corporate. So managers must recognize business goes on when the social legitimacy is approved by the public, and make efforts to arrange systems and programs to foster ethical management.

본 연구는 기업의 윤리경영 활동과 마케팅 효과의 융합적 관계를 파악하고자 윤리경영 노력이 소비자에게 신뢰감을 형성하고, 그러한 신뢰감이 실제 구매행동으로 연결되는지 조사하였다. 가설수립 및 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 분석을 통해 제품 서비스 책임, 기업 윤리지침 마련, 사회공헌활동, 고객권리 보장으로 구성되는 윤리경영의 실천이 소비자 구매행동에 긍정적 영향을 미치며, 그 과정에서 소비자의 이미지 지각과 기업 신뢰가 매개적 역할을 하고 있음을 증명하였다. 이러한 결과는 윤리경영이 기업에게 사회적 압력과 비용으로만 작용하는 것이 아니라 기업의 이익 증가로 연결되는 선순환 과정에 있음을 보여주고 있고 있어 기업의 능동적이고 적극적인 윤리경영 실천이 필요함을 시사하고 있다. 향후 연구에 있어서는 윤리경영의 대상 범위와 실행 수준을 보다 세분화한 분석과 최근 대중의 관심도가 높은 윤리 이슈와 연계한 연구가 필요하다.
