Actually that's a pretty big deal. Financial institutions have far more stringent rules than an average company regarding communications.
Analysts must be shielded by "Chinese walls" from traders. Just imagine what a trader can do if he gets a 20 minute head start (or just a few pertinent bullet points) of an influential report, which is about to be published. Look up 'front running' for details.
Communications within financial companies and between banks and outside entities are pretty heavily regulated. And for very good reason.
