August, 2011
As part of Clifton Gunderson Wealth Advisor Holding LLC's (CGWAH) duty to its clients and as a matter of best business practices, we have adopted policies and procedures for disaster recovery and for continuing CGWAH's (and its subsidiaries noted below) business in the event of a disaster. These policies are designed to allow CGWAH to resume providing service to its clients in as short a period of time as possible. These policies are, to the extent practicable, designed to address those specific types of disasters that CGWAH might reasonably face given its business and location.
The various CGWAH entities create backups in essential services and technological areas to mitigate the risk of a single site failure. We store our essential data in two independent facilities. Our main facility is equipped with an uninterrupted power supply and generators that can power the facility and computing equipment for several weeks. This backup facility is located in an area that does not experience typhoons, hurricanes, seismic activity or frequent tornadoes. Critical client data is backed-up on a regular and recurring basis and stored in locations geographically distant from our main data center. We test our documented business continuity plan either annually or as designated by regulatory requirements for our locations. We have other facilities, wired and computerized, which we can occupy. CGWAH has a contingency plan for relocating essential personnel to other locations if necessary.
CGWAH’s current plans are designed to protect our clients’ assets and service requirements, as well as our business interests. We continually revisit and adjust when necessary the dynamic nature of our business and the needs of our clients.
Thank you for the trust you have placed in CGWAH.
