MiFID II AND THE REQUIREMENTS FOR CALL RECORDING
WHAT IS MiFID II?

THE BEST WAY TO MEET MIFID II CALL REQUIREMENTS
For businesses operating under MiFID II, all trade-related communications must be documented. This is valid regardless of whether or not a transaction eventually takes place. This phone call must then be stored in an accessible format for a minimum of three years and must be able to be retrieved upon request.
However, what are the practicalities of call recording? How can you introduce this in your workplace and ensure that you follow MiFID II requirements at all times?
For many financial services organisations, the introduction of MiFID II is the perfect time for your business to move to a cloud-based UC (Unified Communications) platform.

CLOUD-BASED UNIFIED COMMUNICATIONS PLATFORM
Moving to a cloud-based UC comes with many benefits, including high-quality, built-in call recording that will keep your business compliant with MiFID II regulations.
Our cloud-based Unified Communications platform allows you to record conversations from a variety of devices and locations, as well as providing a safe, secure and accessible point of storage so your files can be retrieved whenever necessary.
Our Unified Communication solutions are affordable, bespoke and ready to transform your business operations in the best way. Get in touch with Your Comms Group for more information.

Why should I switch to a UC solution instead of using another means of call recording?Other call recording solutions are often expensive, and provide your business with low-quality recordings that may be difficult to access in an emergency, as well as requiring both physical and virtual storage space. Alternatively, our UC platforms are all-encompassing and guarantee a secure and high-calibre form of protection.
