The Financial Services Authority, the Treasury and the Bank of England have launched a joint website on the UK financial sector's continuity planning.
The three authorities have been working with public and private bodies to co-ordinate business continuity planning in the financial industries.
These issues have never been more pertinent. The website introduction explains: "The events of 11 September 2001 have greatly heightened awareness of the risks and potential consequences of terrorist attacks and shown the importance of co-ordinating contingency preparations."
The website gives an overview of the main organisations involved in business continuity planning and the issues they are addressing.
