Global System Services Corporation (GSS) - The leading provider of email and messaging, directory services, and groupware consulting and professional services

SEC and NASD regulations related to
e-mail are increasing the burden of e-mail management on IT and compliance professionals. Securities firms are facing new regulatory requirements while e-mail volume continues to grow.

While government regulators are focusing on e-mail the SEC offers no specific technology guidelines for managing e-mail. In recent years major firms have been fined substantially based on e-mail.

In the past, firms archived e-mail but today compliance professionals must manage far greater numbers of messages and review them for a growing number of reasons. Existing solutions are technology-centric and are not designed for business users.

Technical requirements for e-mail in the financial services industry are unique. Increasing monitoring and review of e-mail due to regulatory requirements has presented a major challenge to broker-dealers.

The role of non-technical compliance professionals has become both more proactive and mission critical. Compliance and IT professionals agree that traditional e-mail surveillance and archiving tools by themselves are simply not up to the task.

GSS E-mail Manager (GEMM) for IBM Lotus Domino solves a major problem while helping broker-dealers reduce overall technology costs for regulatory compliance.

With GEMM compliance professionals can easily manage, search, inspect and analyze very large numbers of e-mail messages selected for review.

GEMM specifically addresses the user interface and message management needs of compliance professionals and provides IT departments with a necessary tool to manage e-mail review.

GEMM provides much needed functionality to broker-dealer compliance professionals and IT departments.

GEMM is easy to use for compliance professionals but powerful enough for IT. Features of GEMM include:
