Chiron Securities LLC Business Continuity Plan
Client Disclosure Statement
Chiron Securities LLC has developed a Business Continuity Plan for how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will have to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind, we are providing you with this information on our business continuity plan.
Contacting Us – If after a significant business disruption you cannot contact us as you usually do at 713−929−9080 or email at sjohnson@chironfinance.com, you should call our alternative numbers 713−929−9081 or 713−305−5951, or go to https://www.chironfinance.com.
Our Business Continuity Plan – We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm’s books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business. In short, our business continuity plan is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption.
Our business continuity plan addresses: data backup and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact; regulatory reporting; and assuring our customers prompt access to their funds and securities if we are unable to continue our business.
Varying Disruptions – Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as only our firm, a single building housing our firm, the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the whole region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary from minimal to severe. In a disruption to only our firm or a building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to one or more local site(s) when needed and
expect to recover and resume business within 1 – 2 hours. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site or sites outside of the affected area and recover and resume business within 1 – 2 hours. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, and notify you through our web site, https://www.chironfinance.com or our customer emergency numbers, 713−929−9081 and 713−305−5951 how to contact us. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we will assure our customer’s prompt access to their funds and securities.
