FINRA distinguishes between static content (unchanging, such as a profile, banner, or post held out for extended time) and interactive content (real-time chats, tweets, comments). Static content is treated as retail communication and must receive principal pre-approval before first use. Interactive content is supervised but does not require pre-approval, though it must still be monitored to ensure compliance with content standards. All communications must be retained according to SEC/FINRA recordkeeping requirements. Options C and D are incorrect because all business communications are subject to retention, review, and content standards. Series 7 candidates must understand how broker-dealers oversee electronic communications, the need to avoid promissory or misleading statements, and the importance of compliance in digital marketing. This reflects how firms seek business while maintaining regulatory standards.
