@jialanw i like how @moniquegoyens put it in a recent tweet: "if you want consumers to trust the (too) complex financial market, dont overinvest in disclosure, but simplify the offer." https://t.co/aVuROyw8zg

[monique goyens @moniquegoyens]

Thank you s omuch for having me on panel, we could have gone on for hours😇. My message:if you want consumers to trust the (too) complex financial market, dont overinvest in disclosure, but simplify the offer.Fully agree w/ Jekaterina that behavioural science is underexploited!

[Matthew Soursourian @msoursour]

@jialanw Reminds me of this paper, which explores similar ideas (and which you might be referencing?) https://t.co/hcppecklgg

[Matthew Soursourian @msoursour]

@pauldadams @stefanhunt absolutely. i imagine you're familiar with this ASIC/AMF report? https://t.co/r82T2EuDh0 great synthesis of research demonstrating the limitations of disclosure, and how it can backfire
