Unprecedented Challenges Due To COVID-19

Banks are familiar with business continuity planning to address emergency situations that are short in duration, limited in scope, and specific in geography. Pandemics, on the other hand, are long-lasting, widespread, and can occur in multiple waves.

The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic is presenting unprecedented challenges to our nation, and the banking industry is on the forefront of ensuring that normalcy is eventually restored. Accordingly, banks need to be fully prepared for the spectrum of issues that they may encounter as they plan and prepare for, respond to, and ultimately recover from the current pandemic, and any future ones we may face.
