It's never been more important to get compliance right if you're in the financial services sector.

In 2008/09 the FSA imposed a record £27.3 m in financial penalties compared with around £14m over the previous five years. They also tripled the number of penalties applied personally to key individuals…with more to come:

In the most serious cases the FSA has the power to bring criminal prosecutions against Company Directors. Taking all this into account the costs of falling foul of regulation could be a personal and financial nightmare.

Answer 'NO' to any of these three questions and you risk the penalties of falling foul of compliance:

• Can you easily prove your KYC, TCF and BCP processes meet the most rigorous standards?
• Is all your information intelligently stored and quick and easy to retrieve in the event of eDiscovery?
• Is all your information secure and retrievable in the event of disaster?

Whatever your situation, Neocol can help you bullet-proof your security to meet the most rigorous of standards. With our help you can rely on easy and fast access to all the information you need so you're ready before eDiscovery.

And with all your information stored digitally in a centralised repository, your staff can quickly access the information they need for faster customer service, plus it's safe from almost any kind of disaster – the key to Business Continuity Planning.

• Email retention and control and e-Discovery requests where organisations typically need to keep information for up to 7 years.
• Due diligence policies and regulations such as Know Your Customer (KYC) and Treat Customers Fairly (TCF) where organisations need to identify clients and monitor Anti-Money Laundering (AML) activities which are extremely document-centric and often manually processed by back office, customer and compliance teams.
