All companies under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission must comply with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. AdvisorMail SOX meets all of the electronic data management and retention requirements as set forth by the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, commonly called SOX, was enacted in 2002 in response to corporate scandals involving large,
public corporations and is currently law.
Today, the vast majority of organizations use email to communicate internally and as a vehicle for the exchange
of documents and correspondence between businesses and their outside consultants, accounting firms and audit
firms. Since these communications often contain information about business transactions and business decisions, these
email communications must be retained in order for an organization to comply with the provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley.
Basically, any publicly-traded company must follow Sarbanes-Oxley regulations. In addition, private firms that may one
day be merged with or acquired by a public company will fall under these regulations as well.
It is recommended that all such entities implement a data retention strategy.
AdvisorMail SOX can automate email archiving and email management for your firm.
