As a FINRA registered broker/dealer, we have developed a Business Continuity Plan to help ensure we continue to operate when a sudden business disruption occurs. In our capacity as an introducing broker dealer, we provide many products and services to our clients directly or through a third party. We have established a plan that takes into account disruptions that may be local to us, our vendors, and the financial system as a whole due to anything from a natural disaster to a terrorist attack. Our business partners and clearing firm, Pershing LLC have processes in place that are designed to restore operations within a 4 hour time span. Pershing LLC provides us with a variety of services that require the provision of continual technological and operational support. In order to accomplish this, our clearing firm has a remotely independent hot disaster recovery site that has resources in place to operate and maintain critical business processes. In the event that Duncan-Williams, Inc. or Pershing LLC experiences a sudden business disruption we will relay pertinent information to you via email and our web site. Should you have inquires about this plan questions can be directed to Duncan-Williams, Inc. Attn: Compliance Department 6750 Poplar Ave. Suite 300 Memphis, TN 38138
