Enabling Security and Compliance for Financial Services Firms

The financial services industry is one of the most regulated industries in the world.  Regulators have turned their attention to how the financial services firms are using and managing real-time communications. 

This includes:
- Instant Messaging
- Unified Communications
- Social Media

Among the regulators who have issued specific guidance are:
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
- Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)
- Financial Services Authority (FSA)
- Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC)

However, financial services firms want and need to use new communication and information tools to make decisions more quickly and gain a competitive advantage.
