Keep the materials inventory current and watch the market against it
Marketing Compliance policy, §4.1, §5.10, §8
The Compliance Officer maintains an inventory recording, for each material, its identifier and version, title, channels, review history, the sponsor bank submission and approval record, active or retired status, and its use period. A material whose use period has ended or whose underlying claim, rate, fee, or disclosure has changed is retired from every channel and resubmitted before reuse. Materials in market, including partner, affiliate, and influencer content, are monitored against the inventory and the pre-approved language, and non-compliant content is corrected or removed. Materials, drafts past internal review, approval records, review checklists, and revisions are retained for at least seven years from retirement.
Continuous
Inventory updated at each workflow step; expiry checked daily; in-market sweeps ongoing; retention seven years from retirement
