This article disseminates the economic thought of Tomás de Mercado, Spanish scholastic and outstanding student of the School of Salamanca of economists in the sixteenth century. He wrote Tratos y Contratos de Mercaderes y Tratantes (1569), whose purpose was to virtuous business practices and make them consistent with the Christian doctrine. Nowadays, when the sole purpose of many for profit businesses is to make money without looking at who gets harmed, this work is very important because something of ethics is missing in trade. Apart from a few biographical brushstrokes and disquisitions of the author on natural law, the most relevant aspects of economic thought of Mercado are exposed, such as private property; public intervention and the legal and religious superstructure; economic activities; morality in trade; fair price; taxation; analytical tools, among others, the value of the goods, the purchasing power of money, the time and the interest rate.
