Most agencies have records-retention schedules that prescribe minimum and maximum hold periods for each record series. Discarding too early (below minimum) violates state records law; holding too long (above maximum) creates discovery exposure and storage cost. Both errors are routine.
Records litigation typically lands between the minimum and maximum boundaries — the gray zone where the schedule could go either way. A consistently followed schedule is the best defense against claims of selective retention.
MSRB Rule 15c2-12 requires issuers to file notice of certain events within 10 business days. The list runs to 16 categories now, including some (insolvency of obligated person, modifications to rights of bondholders, financial obligations material to investors) that are easily missed without a tracking process.
