International disaster recovery services

We have pioneered a range of services designed to allow companies operating in offshore finance centres around the globe, such as the Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Bahrain and Gibraltar, to safeguard priceless corporate information in secure data vaults in Jersey.

We operate world-class internet hosting facilities from our two data centres in Jersey, the quality of which is unparalleled in the world of offshore finance. The island of Jersey has an excellent reputation as a well regulated international finance and ecommerce centre. This unique combination offers significant advantages to other jurisdictions that have an economic reliance on a prosperous finance sector.

Our innovative data backup solutions allow you to insure against business failure as a result of catastrophic disruption. We recently helped a number of our Caribbean clients to mitigate the worst effects of the hurricane that devastated the Cayman Islands in September 2005.

As well as being a contingency against extreme weather phenomena, the type of service we provide is equally applicable to help you manage the effects of any form of potential catastrophe including political or economic uncertainty and, more recently, the threat of terrorist activity. Our services are designed to integrate easily with any existing local disaster contingency arrangements that you may have in place.

Our international disaster recovery customers are typically in financial services, where Jersey’s expertise, reputation and similar sized economy are seen as benefits. This type of activity also reinforces the sustainability, to the local jurisdiction, of financial services which tend to have ’shallow roots’. Compliance with emerging regulations and adherence to principles of best practice are also drivers for more sophisticated disaster recovery planning and these often have regulatory implications. As a result, we work very closely with the Jersey Financial Services Commission and the relevant authorities in the jurisdictions where it currently offers services.
