Bank for International Settlements (Basel Committtee)   

"In response to a request from the Financial Stability Forum in September 2004, the Basel Committee’s Joint Forum decided that there was a need for a compilation of accepted high level principles on business continuity. The Joint Forum set up a formal working group in early 2005 to develop such principles and has now published a consultation paper containing the result of its efforts. The paper is intended to support international standard setting organisations and national financial authorities by ‘providing a broad framework within which more detailed business continuity arrangements might be developed that are more closely tailored to unique sectoral and local circumstances.’ The principles also promote a ‘common base level of resilience across national boundaries.’

IT executives in the financial services sector should immediately evaluate, and modify where necessary, their disaster recovery and business continuity plans in light of this draft. Financial services IT executives should expect to expand their commitment to and expenditures for business continuance plans in 2003, in order to support what will likely be mandated expenditures. Moreover, all IT executives should remain aware of the status of pending federal regulations, as these tend to become propagated across the entire IT industry, and plan accordingly."
