Sirius has developed a special disaster recovery service, in collaboration with Broker Continuity Planning (BCP), especially for Sirius 21 brokers.
The software provider said that in the event of a physical disaster that stops companies from being able to access their office, Sirius 21 brokers can be up and running again within 24 hours using a fully prepared modern BCP office within reach from where they would normally work.
The company said Broker Continuity Planning will provide Sirius 21 brokers with everything they need in the event of an emergency, from telephones, PCs, printers & photocopiers to high-speed internet access, kitchen facilities & reserved parking.
The service has been developed in response to a recent working paper by the FSA that stated "the FSA already expects all authorised financial institutions to consider the need for a risk-based BCM framework including an appropriate business continuity plan".
Sirius will offer the service as a value-added option to its existing broking services.
