Reviewers from the branch and home offices, or from brand and compliance departments, are now able to systematically review content to ensure consistency, adherence to brand standards and corporate guidelines while maintaining control to meet regulatory compliance mandates.

“The growing demand for social, and it-s acceptance in highly regulated wealth management and financial services firms, has created a requirement to treat in the same fashion as other forms of communications. Firms applying multiple review steps for email and printed content have driven the requirement to do the same for social,” says Sarah Carter, General Manager, Social Business, Actiance. “FINRA has stepped up attention on social networks by incorporating more spot checks on firms using social. This increased focus reinforces the importance of social as a communications channel in the financial sector and puts it on a level with other forms of communication. We have worked closely with customers and partners within the industry to continue to remove perceived regulatory barriers by delivering this important capability.”

Multi-level review and approval enables multiple reviewers from branch offices, home offices, brand or regulatory compliance to review social content add internal notes and to approve or reject it. Socialite also allows this review to take place over email and further benefits can be realized by utilizing Actiance-s extensive trigger term or lexicon libraries to reduce the amount of content which needs human review.
