Information Density — The Lens

Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.

Info Density Power-words vs. Substance ratio.
28 Impact Weight: 30 / 100

The site exhibits high information density with a near-total absence of power words like revolutionary or world-class. Instead, it uses functional nouns and specific entities such as Government of Canada and named institutions like Prospera and Sunshine Coast Credit Unions. The body text is composed of specific regulatory descriptions, such as the statement that coverage is free and automatic when you bank with a member institution.

Information Density is read straight from the body copy: how much of the text carries grounded, checkable substance versus hollow filler. Below is the clean text the engine analyzed, then the industry’s known generic-claim patterns to weigh it against.

[H2] What happens in a failure?
Canada’s financial system is strong and stable. Canadian financial institutions must meet robust prudential standards to maintain their safety and soundness but like all businesses they can fail at some point.
If a bank does fail, CDIC has tools to resolve them while protecting depositors and contributing to the stability of the financial system.

🧭 Industry Context — common generic-claim patterns in Financial Services, Banking & Insurance to weigh the text against
Generic Claims: securing your financial future, trusted with billions, personalized financial solutions, your money is safe with us, expert guidance for every stage of life, financial freedom starts here…

Semantic Drift Patterns: homepage claims independent advice but services page shows restricted panel, claims bespoke solutions but offerings are standard off-the-shelf products, homepage targets high-net-worth but minimum investment is low, claims whole-of-market but only distributes own products…
Proof Expectations: FCA registration number with link to register, specific qualifications (DipPFS, ACII, CFA, CFP), published fee schedule or charging structure, named team with verifiable regulatory record, FSCS protection status and limitations, complaints data and FOS referral information…
