In addition, we want to remind members of the BCP Resource Center that is available to them on ICI’s website. While much of this information relates to pricing, valuation, and unexpected market close issues, you can also find meaningful information, including a “comprehensive checklist for pandemic planning,” on the site.[1] The BCP Resource Center is available at: https://www.ici.org/continuity. Also, since 9/11, ICI’s Technology Committee has had a BCP Subcommittee that, over the years, has dealt with a variety of issues triggering our members’ BCP plans. Peter Salmon of ICI’s Operations Department, who coordinates this Subcommittee and its calls, will be participating on the call to share his insights.
