INFORMCompliance is an Internet-based automated monitoring application that allows users to monitor portfolios – or groups of portfolios – for common elements of investment risk. First introduced in 1997, the tool was enhanced in 1999 to offer Internet compliance reporting, including Internet-based report generation and automated email reporting of violations.
