But the rules surrounding electronic record archiving have remained consistent since their inception.
SEC Rule 17a-(4) and 17 CFR 1.31 have made it clear that if your firm is governed by one of these regulations, and your firm uses electronic records, then you must follow their guidelines for how those records are to be handled or face possible repercussions.
If you are a Broker-Dealer, Registered Investment Advisor, Futures Commission Merchant, Swap Exchange Facility or Swap Dealer then chances are you generate a lot of records related to your business activities and those records may be subject to the requirements of SEC 17a-(4) or 17 CFR 1.31.
If you are subject to one of those regulations and your records are in electronic format, then you understand some of the challenges associated with the long-term archival and retrieval of those historical records.
