Website & Social Media Archiving
The leading solution for archiving, managing and replaying dynamic web content for the Financial Industry.
Advancing Web Technologies: a Risk for the Financial Industry
Online marketing/communications can present a challenge for securities traders, investment advisors, banks, and others in the financial services industry. The benefits of advancing technologies must be weighed against the risks associated with non-compliance in the area of books and records retention. Failure to meet the demands of industry standards can result in hefty fines and bad publicity.
Web Records Retention & Regulatory Compliance
Multiple sets of guidelines for the financial industry (issued by SEC, FDIC, FSA, SOX, FINRA, and others) demand the preservation of business records (both paper AND electronic) in such a way that the data can be reproduced in a timely and complete manner to a regulator. These requirements are now being extended to include newer tools such as social media platforms, and FINRA has advised that no compliance grace period will be in effect for these new technologies.
