Why this playbook

The Marketing Compliance Equation Has Broken

In regulated financial services, marketing content has grown by an order of magnitude in five years. Compliance capacity has not. Senior leaders are managing the gap through three losing strategies — sampling, slowing campaigns, or saying no.  

None will hold. Examiners now expect comprehensive pre-publication review across a dozen channels at velocities the linear model was never built for. This playbook is the response — seven executable plays for moving from sampling-and-saying-no to coverage-at-speed.
