We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Dear all,

I am looking for literature about communicative conventions in Spanish
letters to shareholders (or annual reports). Are there language-specific
characteristics which distinguish Spanish texts from - say English letters
to shareholders? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Best,
Eva-María Romero Pérez
