(Reuters) – On Thursday, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission issued a sanction to UBS AG for $500,000 because it failed to keep certain audio recordings in accordance with CFTC regulations.

“The order finds that as a result of failures in UBS’s audio retention systems, the firm deleted over 1,000 hours of audio data after one day, including voice recording files that were required by CFTC regulations to be retained for one year”, the CFTC said in a statement. UBS must pay $500,000 in civil penalties.
