(ADR) $3.75 million for systemic failures that prevented it from making sure certain instant messages, emails, and electronic records are preserved in the way they are required be for at least a decade. The financial institution is settling without denying or admitting to the findings. It has, however, agreed to an entry of the SRO&#8217;s findings.<\/p>\n<p>According to FINRA, between 2002 and 2012, Barclays did not preserve a lot of records and electronic books in WORM format, per regulator mandate. This included trade confirmations, trade information, order and trade ticket data, blotters, accounting records, and other records. WORM (Write-Once, Read-Many) Format is the non-erasable, non-rewriteable format that business-related electronic records are supposed to be kept in-per FINRA rules and federal securities laws. The Securities and Exchange Commission says that this format and the preservation of records are essential in protecting investors and ensuring that compliance with securities laws is taking place.<\/p>\n<p>In regards to Barclays over this matter, FINRA says that the issues were widespread and affected all of the firm&#8217;s business. It said that because of this, Barclays couldn&#8217;t determine whether all of its e-books and records were kept in an a manner that was unalterable.  Also, Barclays is accused of not properly keeping certain attachments to Bloomberg emails and not properly keeping about 3.3 million Bloomberg instant messages. Also, Barclays purportedly did not set up and maintain a proper system and written procedures so it could comply with FINRA, SEC, and NASD regulations and rules involving the requirements noted in the violations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investorlawyers.com\/blog\/barclays-to-pay-375m-finra-fin\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Barclays to Pay $3.75M FINRA Fine for E-mail Retention and Record Preservation Violations\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority said it is fining Barclays Capital Inc.
