Email Archive SEC/FINRA Compliance Users: Compliance Efficiency
Driven by the needs for email archiving compliance with increasingly stringent federal laws and industry compliance regulations, the need to invest strategically in email archiving storage technology is becoming more compelling and urgent every day. Within financial services, keeping up with new SEC/FINRA compliance requirements, multiple sets of new rules imposed under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act, and international developments such as the EU Data Privacy Directive has become a full time proposition. Achieving SEC/FINRA email archiving compliance with inflexible legacy solutions has become an increasingly difficult task.
Email Archive for SEC/FINRA Compliance Users Key Capabilities:

Robust supervision review features allow organizations to automate review processes, thus enabling greater productivity of compliance staff and improving effectiveness in identifying and routing potential SEC compliance policy violations that require further review or escalation. Self-service search and near real-time email retrieval – uniquely backed by a performance guarantee – significantly improves the efficiency of the compliance audit process.
