7. As a Financial Institute we are Part of a Highly Regulated
Industry
We need to Archive any employee communication on third-party platforms
such as Twitter/Facebook
Our global presences in over 50 countries have to be inline with cross boarder
regulations and reflect banking secrecy
We are restricted in what we can say / sell to our clients

Focus on category leaders as primary platforms
Select the best matching platform per target group and activity
e.g. for Private Clients:
− Broadcast:
− Dialogue:
− Relationship:
Comply with the channel strategy per platform:
e.g. for Twitter: one channel per region and further channels only for specific
target groups/topics assuming at least one tweet per day and for individual
accounts.

23. Lessons Learned so far
The business demand for social media initiatives is high – alignment with social
media platform strategy challenging
It is a long way from a high level idea to a detailed concept and support by the
SMCC is indispensable
To gather all the required risk assessments is a cumbersome process,
particularly for global social media initiatives
For client service initiatives risk requirements can be a major road block
To define and measure meaningful KPI with the business remains a challenge
It is difficult to draw a line between personal and professional employee
activities
