What if your Credit is What if your Credit is Damaged by Natural Disaster? Disaster Versus Credit

What if your Credit is What if your Credit is Damaged by Natural Disaster? Disaster Versus Credit All conscientious consumers build their credit score and are always accurate with payments, feeling free to take new loans. But one rarely can expect that there are circumstances which he can't influence and which can damage his credit and his assets. I'm speaking about natural disasters – hurricanes, floods, volcanic eruptions.

Can you imagine your credit cards, financial documents, assets – all attacked by, say, a hurricane? You can lose much more, but let us not speak about loss of home or dear people, rather of humane considerations. Let us focus on how you can resist or recover from the financial losses in a natural disaster. … [Read more...]

Natural Disasters Asset Preservation and Business Continuity

Natural Disasters Asset Preservation and Business Continuity http://tony-ridley.com/2010/05/10/natural-disasters-asset-preservation-and-business-continuity Ask yourself, do you remember more details around the Union Carbide leak, the Exxon Valdez spill, World Trade Center attack or the Sichuan Quake, Myanmar Typhoon or PNG Tsunami which all singularly killed more people than the 3 prior events in total?

Let’s Look at Natural Disasters

Let's Look at Natural Disasters There is certainly an order in the world. The planets move around the sun in precise orbits; the earth turns on its axis accurately; the moon orbits around the earth; these are just a few ways. The list is infinite. From the vibration of atoms, to the orbiting of the planets, there is an order in the universe. How then do devastating natural disasters occur? Immediate thought about them seems to reveal that natural disasters are freaks of nature. It does not seem sensible to see weather running berserk. Rain, which has been helping nature in its cycle, suddenly sows havoc. There are floods; thousands of plants, animals and humans perish. It looks as if a usually kind and gentle person suddenly become violent and kills for sport. Natural disasters come in many shapes and dimensions. Some natural disasters are easily predicted, others occur without warning. There are of course countless studies which show how natural disasters such as … [Read more...]
