Question

Not in a general sense, but very specifically...

How prepared is Citigroup in the event of an avian flu pandemic in regards to business continuity, IT, medical and other policies?

Answer 1

I know that after 9/11, Citigroup was part of a larger group of financial leaders and financial agencies (like the SEC) that spent a lot of time on business continuity and financial market continuity in the event of a disaster. I know I saw some reports at some point regarding this but I don't remember where right now. Generally, as being part of this group, I would expect that they are better prepared than most - atleast on the business and market continuity side.

Answer 2

Does all and sundry keep in ideas 1918? Or study it? The flu pandemic of 1918 killed thousands and thousands. a lot more beneficial than WW1. The avian flu virus has a similar capacity if it ought to bypass the species barrier. And even as it does it truly is going to spread in a count number of weeks international huge. it truly is why we should be thoroughly prepared before it/if takes position.
