Business Continuity Planning
Champlain Advisors LLC has developed a Business Continuity Plan (“BCP”) on how it will respond to events that significantly disrupt its business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will maintain flexibility in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind, we are providing you with this information on our BCP.
Contacting Us – If after a significant business disruption you cannot contact us as you usually do at 212.686.7949, please visit our website atwww.champlainadvisors.com.
Our BCP – In the event of a significant business disruption, we plan to quickly recover and resume business operations and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm’s books and records. In short, our BCP is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the business disruption.
Our BCP addresses: data backup and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; regulatory reporting capabilities.
Varying Disruptions – Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, impacting either only our firm’s office building(s), the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the entire region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary significantly. In a disruption to only our firm or our firm’s office building, we will transfer our operations to a local site when needed and expect to recover and resume business within approximately one week. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area, and recover and resume business within approximately two weeks. In either situation, we plan to continue business.
For more information – If you have questions about our BCP, you can contact us at info@champlainadvisors.com.
