[Corpora-List] Banking discourse corpus: Secrecy vs Confidentiality

[Krishnamurthy, Ramesh]

Hi Nigel
Not banking specifically, but
#1 Wolverhampton Corpus of Business English (10 mwords) was 1999-2000
 http://catalog.elra.info/product_info.php?products_id=627

#2 and COMENEGO has more recent 10mword business corpora in French and Spanish
http://dti.ua.es/comenego
and are, I think, in the process of compiling an English one.

best
Ramesh

        Confidentiality
To: "corpora-bounces at uib.no" <corpora-bounces at uib.no>
Cc: "corpora at uib.no" <corpora at uib.no>

I'm wondering if anyone out there has access to banking corpora. Even better if the corpus is split up into different constituencies - e.g. banking documents, but also journalism, NGO & Govt supervisory (esp. post-Lehman).
A friend teaching banking & company law is researching the differences over time in the uses of the terms "secrecy" and "confidentiality". It seems "secrecy" had a more neutral/positive connotation 1000 years ago than it seems to have nowadays. Can Corpora help make a persuasive case one way or the other?
Any help welcome.
