Compliance and review

Review support for advice-firm content, without pretending to approve it.

Arc Echo helps teams apply proportionate editorial and advice-boundary checks while retaining the firm's authorised human approval process.

No account, payment or workspace access is created.

The clear boundary

Arc Echo supports preparation and evidence, not regulatory sign-off.

Financial-promotion requirements apply across media. Arc Echo therefore connects the source draft, final rendered asset, reviewer checks and approver decision instead of treating a script as the whole review.

The firm remains responsible for ensuring each communication is accurate, balanced, appropriately approved and suitable for the channel in which it appears.

Compliance and review questions

Does Arc Echo approve financial promotions?

No. Arc Echo supports editorial review and records human decisions, but it does not provide regulatory approval or replace the firm's authorised compliance sign-off.

What are Arc Echo's review levels?

Standard review covers routine educational content. Enhanced review adds factual, date, balance and accessibility checks. High-attention review adds separate script, final-asset, disclosure and re-sharing checks for sensitive formats.

Does a shorter social post always receive a lighter review?

No. Arc Echo assigns attention according to claims, format, channel and timing rather than length alone. A short time-sensitive or technical post may need more scrutiny than a longer evergreen piece.
