Pope Francis on Thursday told finance students to "remain free from the lure of money, from the slavery in which money locks up those who make it a cult".
He said he hoped the students from Institution des Chartreux, a Catholic school in Lyon, France, could "acquire the strength and the courage to not blindly follow the invisible hand of the market".
The pontiff told the students to build "bridges between men rather than walls".
