Benefits of the NICE Trading Recording – Teams Approach

As a unified communication and collaboration platform that enables chat, online meetings, calling, file sharing and provides other tools and applications, powers a new world of productivity for front, mid and back-office employees across the financial services spectrum. But as FSOs roll out Teams, they must pay special attention to recording, archiving and retaining all modalities of regulated employee communications. Through its certified integration with Teams, will address these requirements and more.

• All-in-One Compliance Recording Solution: Already adopted by most of the world’s leading banks and investment firms, NTR enables unified capture of a variety of communication modalities in a single platform. This includes all modalities of Teams’ unified communications (voice, screen sharing, video, chat) and other communication systems (turrets, mobile phones, PBX desk phones, etc.). FSOs can now confidently add Microsoft Teams recording into their existing NTR infrastructure and easily adhere to regulatory requirements. At the same time, it supports remote employees, allows for a seamless user experience, lowers TCO, improves economies of scale and significantly streamlines administration and the compliance work process.

• Complete Compliance Assurance: As an added benefit, NTR’s application helps FSOs streamline mandated compliance assurance processes through automated provisioning, system health checks, bulk call extraction, transcription, compliance assurance reporting and monitoring dashboards, real-time recording reconciliation and daily recording checks.

• Automated Trade Reconstruction: Rapid trade reconstruction is mandated by a host of regulations. In some cases, firms must adhere to a demanding 72-hour turnaround time to respond to regulators. NTR is the communication capture backbone behind NICE’s automated trade reconstruction which uses AI and advanced analytics to help FSOs reconstruct trade conversations and complete investigations in a fraction of the time.
