New York, US- Large US banks have begun testing crisis measures in case of a broader coronavirus outbreak that prevents staff from going to work, banking sources told.
JPMorgan
Chase, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup have asked hundreds of
workers to work from home as part of emergency preparedness.
"We
are asking some employees to work from home over the next two weeks just so we
can test systems and remote access," said one person familiar with the
process, characterizing the step as "typical contingency stuff."
JPMorgan
has undertaken tests at a disaster recovery site in London and two in the
United States, in Brooklyn and the state of New Jersey, a source told AFP.
Citigroup
has undertaken a similar process in London and New Jersey, while Goldman Sachs
has done tests at a site in London.
"We
have recovery sites and we continually test them," said a Goldman Sachs
spokeswoman. "As you can imagine, we are enhancing our testing in view of
the coronavirus."
The
banks want to be able to assure consumers that services won't be affected if
employees must work from home.
The
companies have added computer programs to simulate remotely the systems used by
financial traders, sources said.
There
has also been extensive testing of disaster recovery sites to ensure the same
quality of service as at the office.
While
working remotely is relatively straightforward for administrative staff, there
are more challenges for traders and sales force employees.
These
include issues with the quality of home Internet service, as well as the
sophistication of information security systems and whether networks are shared
with other family members.
There is
also a need to maintain sufficient oversight of traders and commercial workers
to meet regulatory requirements.
Banks
must keep records of phone and written communications of traders and they can
be fined if they don't follow the rules.
Firms
have asked US and British regulators for flexibility on the rules, sources told
AFP, confirming a report in the Financial Times.
US
authorities have relaxed rules in early disaster-type scenarios, as in 2012,
when Hurricane Sandy battered the New York region.
The US
Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, a private self-regulatory body, did not immediately respond to
requests for comment.
