DataParser Leverages Microsoft’s Azure Analytics to Meet  FINRA E-Communications Collection Requirement 

Also allows companies to monitor and compile text messages, instant messages and other e-communications to identify phrasing that may indicate customer or employee dissatisfaction

17a-4, LLC, a software and services company that enables regulated clients to comply with SEC, FINRA and CFTC requirements, has announced its widely used DataParser that collects third-party messaging and collaboration content now integrates with Microsoft’s Azure’s AI Cognitive Services Text Analytics API. This combination enhances the ability of compliance officers to supervise data in keeping with current regulations, but also makes it easier to monitor and analyze keywords and phrasing that may indicate the message contains a customer complaint or issue, allowing companies to address such concerns quickly and effectively.

This provides a comprehensive view of the dialogue and makes minimal impact on real-time operations.
