Durable Medium Assessment
How does your current document-delivery process stack up?
Choose one important customer communication and work through 10 practical questions based on the FCA's Durable Medium characteristics.
This is a practical implementation review, not legal advice. It identifies areas worth checking against the rules that apply to your own communication.

Use the result as a discussion list
Take the flagged areas back to compliance, operations and technology teams and resolve them against the rule that applies to the communication you assessed.
If the long-term document requirement is creating unnecessary complexity in email, a portal or paper process, Documentd can provide a separate customer-owned delivery layer.
This assessment is a practical implementation aid only. It is not a legal or regulatory compliance determination. Whether a communication satisfies an FCA or other requirement depends on the applicable rule, the information being provided and the way the process is configured.
