- How does FundFire fit in with our compliance needs?
We've designed FundFire working with investment managers' compliance departments to be compliance-friendly. Any submissions to the FundFire Web sites automatically generate a copy of what you've written. Our systems send that copy to the email account associated with your username on any communication you make through our site. Your firm's compliance systems capture the email as it arrives in your inbox. This system works when forwarding a story to a friend, submitting a comment in one of our discussions, providing feedback on one of our articles, asking a question in YourQ&A, nominating an expert, and sending a message to an editor.
