The "FFIEC InfoBase" concept was developed by the Task Force on Examiner Education to provide field examiners in financial institution regulatory agencies with a quick source of introductory training and basic information. The long-term goal of the InfoBase is to provide just-in-time training for new regulations and for other topics of specific concern to examiners in FFIEC's five member agencies.

FFIEC BCP Booklet Revision
The new edition rescinds and replaces the previous Business Continuity Planning Booklet issued in March 2003.
The BCP booklet was revised to reflect technological and regulatory changes with a focus on management’s responsibilities regarding oversight of the continuity planning process for business operations.
While significant revisions were made, the focus continues to be based on an enterprise-wide, process-oriented approach that considers: technology, business operations, testing, and communication strategies that are critical to business continuity planning for the entire business, instead of just the information technology department.
