    Dear CORPORA Colleagues

    Could anyone point me towards a freely available corpus of
    Business Spanish for linguistic investigation and didactic
    purposes?

    I am also interested to hear about (recent/ongoing) research
    papers/projects connected with idiomatic investigations in the
    area of Business Spanish (from Spain and other Spanish-speaking
    zones). Ideally, the focus should be upon figurative language,
    its description, extraction and other computational processing,
    alone or in contrast with other languages (German & English
    preferred, or with other Romance languages, such as Italian,
    Catalan, etc.).

    Many thanks in advance from any pointers.
