Case Study: Investors Bank strengthens business continuity with Weidenhammer Consulting Group

Investors Bank is an independent, full-service community bank operating over 100 branches across New Jersey and New York

Investors Bank, a community bank with over $16 billion in assets, faced an outdated and incomplete Business Continuity Plan (BCP) after a period of significant growth and a disruptive blizzard. To address this challenge, they engaged the consulting services of Weidenhammer to develop a new, comprehensive plan based on a complete risk assessment.

Weidenhammer's solution involved conducting a business impact analysis with 34 departments, facilitating the creation of departmental recovery plans, and identifying alternate operating sites. They also implemented an ongoing BCP awareness program. The result was a robust BCP that provided critical direction and confidence during Hurricane Sandy, which affected 75% of the bank's branches and required major relocations, ensuring staff knew exactly what actions to take.
