Wisconsin Eagle/10060298

MERRICK, N.Y. - WisconsinEagle -- Lenders Compliance Group (LCG), the first and only full-service compliance firm with a suite of compliance solutions for residential mortgage lenders and originators, has issued today a valuable tool, entitled Business Continuity Plan Checklist & Workbook (Includes COVID-19 Pandemic Response).

The checklist is a valuable development tool to chart the progress in developing a Business Continuity Plan. This is a 60-page, form-fillable document that provides the basic compliance elements and due diligence essentials at this most critical time in the outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic.

There are distinct differences between pandemic planning and traditional business continuity planning. Pandemic planning presents unique challenges. Unlike natural disasters, technical disasters, malicious acts, or terrorist events, the impact of a pandemic is much more difficult to determine because of the anticipated difference in scale and duration.
