Case Study: Ensuring Financial Security During Crisis – The Port-au-Prince Evacuation

Background:

In the volatile environment of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, a city known for its challenges ranging from political instability to natural disasters, one of our clients found themselves facing an immediate need to evacuate for their safety. The client, a successful entrepreneur with both local and international business interests, realized the importance of having instant access to funds in a crisis situation.

Challenge:

The sudden decision to leave Port-au-Prince meant our client needed immediate financial resources not just for travel and relocation expenses but also to ensure the continuity of their business operations without liquidating long-term investments at a loss. The primary challenge was to maintain financial stability and access to funds across different jurisdictions, especially in an environment where traditional banking services might be disrupted.

Solution:

Prior to the crisis, our company had worked closely with the client to develop a comprehensive “Financial Liquidity Go Pack.” This bespoke solution included a mix of highly liquid assets, such as money market funds and short-term treasuries, as well as access to multi-currency accounts to ensure flexibility across borders. We also integrated digital banking solutions that allowed our client to manage their finances remotely, ensuring that they could execute financial transactions without physical access to local banking facilities.

Demonstrating the Importance of Planning an Escape Plan or Plan B

Outcome:

When the need to evacuate arose, our client was able to immediately access the necessary funds to cover emergency travel for themselves and their family, secure accommodations in a safe location, and support their business operations remotely. The financial liquidity go pack not only provided a safety net during a time of crisis but also minimized the impact on their business, allowing for a smooth transition without the need to liquidate long-term assets under duress.

Conclusion:

This case underscores the importance of proactive financial planning and the value of a liquidity go pack, especially for clients in unpredictable environments. Our client’s ability to swiftly adapt and maintain control over their financial situation during the evacuation from Port-au-Prince highlights the effectiveness of our tailored liquidity solutions. It serves as a testament to our commitment to ensuring our clients’ financial security and resilience, no matter the circumstances.
