Thankfully that's illegal herearound. And I work in finance.
There certainly are automated controls on all communication systems and all mails (and relevant phone calls) are recorded and retained. This being a regulatory requirement.
I'm also pretty sure that there's pattern detection software running on those systems to flag potentially problematic communications.
But indiscriminate email monitoring is illegal without a very good reason (suspected fraud, circumvention of regulatory or compliance requirements, etc) is illegal.
This still doesn't mean that I would mix the personal with work on my personal device but I'm glad there are such protections in place.
