The Logical Choice for New York City Financial Firms
After September 11, 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission recommended that financial services firms establish reliable backup operations outside New York City and Philadelphia to enable recovery and resumption of the U.S. financial system within two hours. The cascading, multi-state power outage in August 2003 reaffirmed the need for remote operations.
In April 2004, the SEC issued guidelines for NASD and NYSE members to develop business continuity plans and procedures relating to an emergency or significant business disruption.
All of this reinforces why DBSi, with our Bethlehem and Valley Forge locations, is ideal for New York City financial services firms.

Advanced Workspace Recovery Facilities
One of our clients, a large investment firm, is located near a major river that hadn’t flooded in 75 years. All that changed a few years ago when unusually strong spring storms caused the river to crest.The city shut down the entire street in advance of the coming disaster.
Everyone in the company was expecting the disruption to be difficult, and their temporary workspace to be the uncomfortable, exposed, loud and non-private typical with other workspace recovery providers.
Fortunately, all of their data and email was hosted at DBSi. We quickly replicated their environment and for five days, the entire staff of 35 relocated to one of DBSi’s spacious, secure, private and well-appointed workspace continuity suites. Business as usual.
