Business Continuity: Are You Prepared?

e-mail print

Now, more than ever, businesses must take a hard look at treasury readiness to meet business continuity challenges.

"Chance favors the prepared mind." — Louis Pasteur

The changing landscape of technology continues to boost global enterprise, adding layers of complexity for organizations of all sizes and locales. World headlines heralding both manmade and natural disasters underscore the urgency of preparation in order to survive unplanned business interruptions.

While the events of 9/11 delivered a harsh wake-up call, natural and economic disasters serve as reminders that processes for evaluating and upgrading contingency plans must be ongoing, dynamic and flexible. To maintain normal cash transfers and settlement activities during a disaster, businesses must work hand-in-hand with their banks and financial institutions.

At J.P. Morgan our business continuity commitment extends beyond ensuring the resiliency of our own financial systems to helping our clients, vendors and competitors keep their systems up and running.
