CFP: Archival Legislation for Finance in Europe

From the EABH:
Because a common urgency for harmonisation of international legislation on financial archiving preservation has arisen, the European Association for Banking and Financial History (EABH) will organize a series of workshops to compile a survey on a European level regarding this subject. The general topic of the first workshop will place special emphasis on the legal periods for data retention and information of the financial sector in Austria, the Benelux countries, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, and Switzerland. Further workshops, which will elaborate on Great Britain, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Malta, Cyprus, Turkey, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, the Baltic Republics, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, and Slovenia, are scheduled to take place in 2013. The series of workshops will provide the groundwork for a comparative approach for a Conference on Archival Legislation Harmonisation in Europe in 2013/2014.
   Submissions are now invited for the Project: Archival Legislation for Finance (ALFF) in Europe, which will hold its first workshop on November 23, 2012, at the Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt am Main. For a list of suggested issues, please see the full call for papers. The deadline for submissions is August 1, September 1, 2012. Submissions may be sent via e-mail to info@bankinghistory.de.
   
The “Archival Legislation for Finance”(ALFF) in Europe project aims to:
  • Identify the archival legal framework of financial institutions in Europe;
  • Document the financial institutions´ perception of the legal framework for archiving records and historical data;
  • Understand financial institutions’ internal structures, periods and processes for archiving records and historical data;
  • In the short run, to propose practical guidelines for financial institutions regarding records retention periods.
  • In the long run, to qualify the most practical framework for archival and records retention periods in Europe in order to structure a harmonised legislation.

The Exchange is changing platforms! Please read to continue receiving our messages [working links]

  Dear subscribers to The Exchange: I am happy to announce that our blog is moving platforms. For almost a decade, the Business History Conference has used Blogger to publish and archive posts. However, in early 2021, the blogging site announced that their email serving service would be terminated. In addition, we noticed that many of our subscribers had stopped receiving the blog’s emails, and our subscription provides very limited reporting. In agreement, the Electronic Media Oversight Committee , web administrator Shane Hamilton, and web editor Paula de la Cruz-Fernández decided to move our web blog from Blogger to our website . We now write to you to request that if you wish to continue receiving announcements from the BHC, please subscribe here: https://thebhc.org/subscribe-exchange   Interested people will be asked to log into their BHC’s account or open one, free. If you have questions, please email The Business History Conference <web-admin [at] thebhc.org>...
