For organizations, especially those in highly regulated industries like financial services, building an effective marketing compliance review workflow is essential. Compliance ensures that marketing content meets strict compliance standards and legal requirements while protecting your strong brand and customer trust. However, if your compliance workflow is inefficient, it can create bottlenecks that kill growth by delaying marketing campaigns and wasting time and resources.

Compliance is necessary for marketing, especially in regulated industries like financial services. However, compliance is often seen as a slow and costly step that holds back marketing teams. Manual compliance processes, siloed workflows, and slow approvals cause bottlenecks. These bottlenecks lead to hidden costs that reduce productivity, increase labor expenses, and delay marketing campaigns.

Balancing compliance and marketing is one of the greatest challenges companies face today. Marketing teams want to run fast, creative marketing campaigns to support revenue growth and build brand presence. Meanwhile, compliance teams work to manage compliance risks and ensure all marketing materials meet strict regulatory compliance requirements.

For CMOs in financial services, understanding SEC and FINRA advertising rules is crucial to creating compliant marketing campaigns. These rules cover everything from disclosures to filing requirements, especially for complex investment vehicles like collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and real estate mortgage investment conduits (REMICs).

Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) in the financial services industry face a complex challenge: launching marketing campaigns that are both effective and compliant. Strict regulations governing financial institutions mean marketing teams must navigate legal requirements carefully. This often leads to delays caused by legal bottlenecks and slow compliance reviews.
