We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm’s books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business.  In short, our business continuity plan is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption. 

Our business continuity plan addresses: data back-up and recovery; all critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; an alternate physical location of employees; critical suppliers, contractors, bank and counter-party impact, and regulatory reporting.

While every emergency situation poses unique problems based on external factors, such as time of day and the severity of the disruption, it is our objective to restore our operations within approximately 24 hours.  Your request for service and/or information could be delayed during this period.
