The Simplified blog

Hi all

It's been a busy time for Simplified.

Last month we sponsored two conferences related to plain language in financial services. One focused on consumer credit and protection and was held at the FNB Conference Centre in Sandton; the other dealt with the education and simplification of financial products - this was held down the road from us at the Park Hyatt in Rosebank.

We have posted articles comprising the presentations we gave here (in the articles section of this site).

The first article looks at to start and sustain plain language in large organisations. We look at what's important as well as possible barriers and how to overcome them.

The second article outlines the legal framework for plain language in financial services. It outlines the local and international contexts.

I hope you enjoy reading them,

Frances
