What are the plans for disaster recovery the day of / immediately after launch? Can we see them?
• A: By the time Proxy Exchange front end goes live, it will have been tested by 850 clients and 5000 users apart from the 90+ person months of testing and certification by internal QA and business teams. As with any large scale implementation plan, RiskMetrics recognizes the need to plan for contingencies. In the event of a failure to successfully deploy and go live on ProxyExchange, contingency plans will be in place to ensure that the systems and processes are rolled back to their original state. The parallel production infrastructure minimizes the risks in this rollback plan. Please contact your account manager for further details.
