Business Continuity
Foros has developed and implemented a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) designed to address and mitigate the potential consequences of a significant business disruption, whether the disruption is local to the company, its immediate locale, or more regional. The BCP is designed to enable us to continue or resume key operations in the event of an emergency or significant business disruption within 24 to 48 hours or less.
Our BCP tries to anticipate the various types of events that could interfere with our ability to operate on a normal basis. Critical functions addressed include the storage and preservation of data, alternate communications with clients and regulators, and alternate communications with, and safety of, employees.
Foros maintains its hard-copy books and records and electronic records primarily at its main office and back-up books and records at alternate locations. If records are lost as the result of a business disruption or for any other reason, Foros can recover data from both physical and electronic back-up locations.
In the event of a significant business disruption, Foros will assess all available means of communication and determine how best to communicate with clients. If we are unable to communicate through traditional means we will, if possible, post emergency contact information and instructions on our website (www.forosgroup.com).
Our BCP may need to rely upon the recovery and restoration of services provided by various critical business constituents at both our primary and alternate business locations. We have considered the extent to which we may be able to depend upon these business relationships during a significant business disruption as a part of our decision to do business with these constituents.
We believe that our BCP implements reasonable and prudent measures to overcome or at least mitigate the consequences of an event that would otherwise interfere with the normal course of our business. However, because it is not possible to anticipate the nature, scope, impact and consequence of every possible business disruption, Foros does not represent or guarantee that it will be able to continue or resume business operations within any specified period of time under all circumstances.
Our BCP is subject to periodic modification. A copy of the summary of our BCP is available upon request by writing to Foros, 461 Fifth Avenue, 17th Floor, New York, NY 10017, Attention: Tricia Gross, Chief of Administration.
