Investment Advisors, Hedge Funds and Broker-Dealers face stringent requirements to comply with SEC Rule 17a-4 (Electronic Records and Record-Keeping) and NASD Rule 3010 (Supervision of Communications). In a nutshell, these rules require at a minimum the following guidelines be met.
- Retention of email and IM communications for a minimum of three years
- Communications must be easily accessible
- Electronic records must be secure
- Communications must be indexed, and stored on non-erasable, non-rewriteable media
The NASD rules also require supervision of all employee communications with customers.
