Business Contingency Planning and Disaster Recovery at NobleBridge Wealth Management

For Clients of NobleBridge Wealth Management

The following is a general description of plans in place at NobleBridge Wealth™ Management, LLC (“NBWM”) to maintain business continuity in the event that operations are disrupted for any reason. Because our clients elect to choose the custodian of their account or broker-dealer for trade execution and processing services, we also present general contact information and description of contingency plans for our primary platform providers of services.

Our firm’s policy is to respond to a Significant Business Disruption (“SBD”) by safeguarding employees’ lives and firm property, making a financial and operational assessment, quickly recovering and resuming operations, protecting all of the firm’s books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business.

Contingency planning at NobleBridge Wealth Management

Our process consists of two major components: written business contingency plans and data security along with recovery:

  • Business contingency plans:
    • NBWM designs specific, formal plans to respond to a range of incidents—from worst-case scenarios, such as loss of a data center, buildings, or staff, or occurrences such as power outages or excessive phone volumes.
    • These plans are regularly reviewed and updated to accommodate changes in contingency requirements.
  • Data security and recovery:
    • Data security is, of course, a top priority. To mitigate computer virus attacks and other acts of cyber terrorism, we have implemented controls and monitoring of information security.

Maintaining business as usual

Whether the disruption occurs at our locations, citywide, or in our region, we and our partners are prepared to relocate technology and operations personnel to pre-assigned alternate regional locations.
