' Pope condemns "Cult of Money" '

"Pope Francis this week charged that certain policies of the global financial system are tyrannizing the poor. In a speech to new ambassadors to the Vatican, Francis warned against a “cult of money.” He said money should serve and not rule. Before becoming pope, Francis was widely known as an advocate for the poor in his native Argentina."

Does this mean that the Vatican Bank will undergo scrutiny and change in its function towards a policy of serving the poor?
