Business Continuity Plan Summary

 

Americas Executions, LLC (“AmerX”) has developed a Business Continuity Plan on 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.

If after a significant business disruption, you cannot contact us as you usually do at (646) 979-8000, you should call our alternative number (212) 306-2700. If you cannot access us through either of those means, you should contact our clearing firm (if applicable) that maintains your account for instructions on how it may provide prompt access to funds and securities, enter orders and process other trade-related, cash and security transfer transactions.

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; alternative physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact, if any; regulatory reporting; and assuring our customers prompt access to their funds and securities if we are unable to continue our business. We back-up information via Vault America. While every emergency poses unique problems based on external factors, such as time of day and the severity of the disruption, we have been advised by our clearing firms that their objectives are to restore their operations and be able to complete existing transactions and accept new transactions and payments within the same business day. Your orders and requests for funds and securities could be delayed during this period. Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as affecting 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 affecting only our firm or the building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to a local site if necessary and expect to recover and resume business within a 24-hour period. In the event of a significant business disruption that closes the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), we will move our staff from any affected offices to an alternative site designated by the Exchange. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area and recover and resume business within a reasonable time. In either situation, we plan to continue business, transfer operations to our clearing firm if necessary, and notify you through our customer emergency number. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we will reasonably ensure that our customers have prompt access to their funds and securities.
