Automate Content Compliance requirements including disclaimers

Replace manual compliance processes with digitised compliance requirements for marketing and sales documents.

PROBLEM

Marketing compliance remains a key industry challenge because 80% of factsheet and pitch book content is related to complex and changing compliance requirements. Front-office teams struggle to quickly deliver compliant and up-to-date documents.

Compliance-related tasks when creating marketing and sales content take on average 45 minutes per document.

Final compliance approval of pitch books, factsheets or similar content takes on average 5 days per document.

Regulatory requirements for content compliance need to be updated manually in cumbersome disclaimer spreadsheets.

Country-specific content compliance requirements are difficult to obtain and implement in existing content creation processes.

SOLUTION

Redefine disclosure management by replacing manual compliance reviews with a digital library of pre-approved Content Compliance guidelines.

Always distribute up-to-date Content Compliance requirements across the whole organisation.

Approve changes, specify rollout dates and review disclaimers and other content requirements for all scenarios, products, customer types and markets.

Perform changes once and apply updated disclosures and disclaimers to all marketing documents in any language.

Efficiently manage Content Compliance requirements across your organisation

Apiax Content Compliance guidance and tools can be applied to a variety of different use cases. Learn more about the use cases our customers are addressing with Apiax.

  • Content Compliance

    Streamline your content creation process with automated compliance checks

    When engaging with clients, prospects, or investors, your relationship managers, portfolio managers, and distribution teams rely on marketing brochures, slide decks, personalised pitch books, as well as other materials to showcase your services and products. These assets not only communicate your values but also reflect your brand's professionalism.

    However, creating and distributing compliant marketing materials in the financial services industry is not an easy task. From company overviews to detailed investment strategies, every document must meet strict regulatory requirements, which vary e.g. by regulatory licenses, by region, or by client classification. Adding specific content such as product performance, peer comparisons, or benchmarks comes with additional complexity—requiring tailored disclaimers, footnotes, and risk warnings. On top of that, consistency in tone, branding, and formatting are essential to maintain credibility.

    Non-compliant materials can result in severe legal, regulatory, and reputational consequences. Especially when marketing and sales content is distributed directly to clients, where these documents can serve as evidence of non-compliance. Despite the high stakes, many firms still rely on inefficient, manual processes for content creation and compliance reviews. This outdated approach is slow, resource-intensive, and prone to errors.

    Smarter, faster and fully compliant content creation

    Streamline your content creation workflow with the Apiax Content Compliance Briefing App and Content Compliance Check App. Or build an Embedded Compliance workflow by integrating the Content Compliance Briefing API directly into your existing content management system.

  • Email Marketing

    Effortless Compliance for your marketing campaigns

    Financial institutions regularly share product ideas, research, and investment proposals with clients and prospects. Marketing teams play a crucial role in creating compelling content and distributing it electronically to the relevant audience. However, ensuring that these communications comply with country-specific regulations is a constant challenge.

    Country-specific regulations impose strict restrictions on promoting financial services, even when targeting only existing clients or professional counterparties. Non-compliance can result in severe legal, regulatory, and reputational risks, making it essential for marketing teams to navigate these rules with precision.

    Yet, understanding compliance requirements for email campaigns for every jurisdiction is often complex and unclear. Many firms still rely on spreadsheets and static handbooks, leaving marketing teams to manually interpret regulations, an inefficient, error-prone, and time-consuming process.

    Seamless and fully compliant marketing campaigns

    With Apiax, financial institutions can ensure that every email campaign and marketing activity is automatically checked for compliance before being sent. By using the Apiax Cross-border App and the Apiax Content Compliance Briefing App, or by embedding the respective Compliance API into your existing mailing process, you can eliminate guesswork, reduce risk, and streamline compliant marketing efforts.

  • Social Media Compliance

    Smart social media Compliance for financial institutions

    Social media is a powerful tool for financial institutions to engage audiences, build brand trust, and share valuable insights. But navigating strict regulatory requirements can turn every post into a compliance challenge. Even a small misstep can lead to legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.

    Marketing teams often struggle to balance creativity with compliance, ensuring the right disclosures and disclaimers while keeping up with fast-moving product campaigns. Outdated compliance processes buried in spreadsheets and static guidelines often slow teams down, increase uncertainty, and leave room for error.

    Stay compliant, market agile

    With Apiax, compliance is no longer a bottleneck. Our Cross-border App and Content Compliance Briefing App provide real-time regulatory guidance, ensuring every post meets compliance standards before it goes live. By embedding the Compliance API directly into your publishing workflow, marketing teams can create and distribute content confidently—without manual checks or delays.

    Unlock seamless, risk-free social media marketing with Apiax—so you can focus on what truly matters: engaging your audience and growing your brand. [Read our integration guide here]

  • Website Marketing

    Effortless Compliance for your website

    Your website is a powerful tool for marketing your service offering and showcasing the performance of your investment products, but ensuring compliance with country-specific regulations can be challenging. Many firms rely on static disclaimers or ask visitors to manually select their domicile, a limited and outdated approach that fails to address regulatory complexities.

    Country-specific regulations in most jurisdictions restrict the promotion of financial services through online channels, even when a visitor accesses a website without prior solicitation (so-called 'reverse solicitation'). Non-compliant marketing can expose financial institutions to serious legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.

    To stay compliant, firms today often either limit website content, reduce their reach, or manage complex, manual frameworks, which are all inefficient and resource-intense approaches.

    Smart Compliance through dynamic website offering

    With Apiax, financial institutions can ensure that only permitted content is displayed dynamically based on a visitor’s location, eliminating the need for static disclaimers or manual selections. By using the Apiax Cross-border App or integrating the Cross-border Compliance API, firms can seamlessly embed regulatory compliance into their website framework.

    Expand your global reach while ensuring compliance with country-specific marketing restrictions without the inefficiencies of manual processes. [Read our integration guide here]

  • Client Reporting

    Effortless Compliance for your client reporting

    Financial institutions rely on complex client reporting processes to provide account statements, portfolio overviews, and investment insights to their customers. Operations teams are responsible for ensuring these reports are accurate, timely, and compliant, but navigating country-specific regulations adds a significant layer of complexity.

    Regulatory restrictions apply in a number of jurisdictions even when communicating with existing clients, and non-compliance can lead to severe legal, regulatory, and reputational risks. Yet, many operations teams struggle to interpret evolving compliance rules and integrate them into their reporting workflows. In many firms, compliance data is still managed manually in spreadsheets, requiring IT teams to translate regulations for reporting engines through time-consuming and error-prone coding.

    Smarter and fully compliant client reporting workflows

    With Apiax, financial institutions can automate compliance checks within their client reporting workflows, eliminating manual efforts and reducing regulatory risk. By leveraging the Apiax Content Compliance Briefing App or integrating the respective Compliance API into their reporting engines, firms can ensure that every client communication meets regulatory requirements without operational burden.

    Deliver accurate, fully compliant reports seamlessly and efficiently. [Read our integration guide here]
