Instant Messaging: One of the Most Effective Business Communication Tools
Instant messaging is critical for success in today’s highly-competitive corporate landscape. In fact, research has revealed that instant messaging is among the most effective business communication tools out there. But you can’t simply install any random messaging app. You need an app that’s designed for business use. Consumer-grade messaging apps can actually bring more harm than good, especially in highly-regulated industries such as the financial sector.
You could find yourself in hot water if you use an off-the-shelf messaging app to communicate with customers or clients. Nearly a dozen major banks were fined a combined sum totaling nearly $2 billion dollars after employees communicated with clients using apps such a WhatsApp, iMessage and Signal. The use of these apps created a situation whereby the financial institutions failed to comply with record keeping laws. This ultimately prompted the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to issue $1.8 billion in precedent-setting fines.
