<p> Annexure A</p><p>INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY an example</p><p>A central server is positioned in a secure environment running Microsoft Small Business Software. Through a Wi-Fi environment, the server is accessed via a network of computers comprising Desktops, iPad and Laptops. A dedicated 24/365 3mbs lease line is used for Internet and Email. Uninterrupted Escom power is supplied, and in the event of power outages, two backup generators are available, with a UPS managing any surges that may materialize. Offsite weekly backup is maintained for all client folders / files as well as all the last 10 years of emails, using Mimecast for email security and Sudemax for data backup. Consideration is underway to effect a daily “online / offsite” data backup system using RSA Web, and once they are in a position to effect same, we will install this improved solution. In the event of a complete reinstallation / restore required, we are assured of being “back to normal” with “no loss of data or emails” within 36 hours. </p><p>PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION</p><p>Insert your process</p><p>SOFTWARE- an example</p><p>Our standard Operating System is Microsoft along with Sophos Anti Virus.</p><p>CLIENT RECORDS</p><p>Each client has an individual hard copy lever arch file as well as comprehensive computer maintained records that provide a history of communication and information pertaining to each client’s FICA, Correspondence, Investment Reviews, and Investment Specific Records</p><p>MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTS & AUDITOR</p><p>Monthly Management Accounts are produced by XXXXXX, P.O.
