JSDA BCP GUIDELINES Q&A BRIEFING


(This session was conducted in Japanese with consecutive English interpretation.)

 

Recent frequent earthquakes that have rocked Japan, the New Orleans floods and the London terror bombings are all daily reminders of how large-scale natural and manmade disasters can have a significant impact on the operations of financial institutions. Based on the release of their recent guidelines, JSDA representatives have outlined for attendees their own BCP framework plan and their expectations for securities companies in the event of a disaster. Following this discussion, one IBA member firm also shared their domestic approach to BCP on how it mitigate risks. The overall aim of this discussion was to share ideas on how to better prepare for disasters and to increase dialogue between both associations on an important issue that affects all market participants.

 

This meeting was open to IBA Member financial institutions and domestic securities companies.
