Financial institutions are getting hit with billions in fines — not because of fraud, but because of non-compliant mobile communication. In this episode of the Efani Features Podcast, host Mark Kreitzman is joined by Mark Meyer, Partner Manager at Smarsh/TeleMessage, to break down a growing crisis: why SEC-regulated firms are struggling to archive mobile messages, and how a new partnership with Efani offers a fully compliant, secure, and fast-to-deploy solution.

If you're a compliance officer, RIA, broker-dealer, or manage any business regulated by the SEC, FINRA, or CFTC, this episode is a must-listen.

📲 What you’ll learn:

• Why over $8.2 billion in fines were handed out in 2024 for mobile message violations
• Why traditional archiving solutions only cover email — and miss critical mobile communications like SMS, MMS, WhatsApp, and Signal
• How Efani’s secure mobile service (AT&T-powered) integrates directly with Smarsh’s archiving platform
• What happens during a compliance audit — and how this partnership ensures you pass
• Why most firms still rely on insecure messaging channels, even when they know better
• The step-by-step onboarding process: provisioning, integration, and capture in under 10 days
• Support structures: full 24/7 tech support from both Smarsh and Efani teams
• Why this is built not just for large enterprises, but for SMBs and mid-market firms who lack in-house compliance teams

You’ll also hear about Efani’s game-changing guarantee: if you're using Efani’s mobile service with Smarsh archiving and still get fined for noncompliance on mobile — Efani will pay the SEC fine.

🛡️ One secure solution. One compliance vendor. One fixed price.
