Emergency Procedures

Register Financial Associates, Inc. has developed an extensive Business Continuity Plan on how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions are 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.

In the event that there is a disruption to our business and we must evacuate our office, we would ask you to refer to our website for further instructions and use the following contact numbers:
