Hurricane Florence Update & Information

With Hurricane Florence advancing on the East coast, WST is making preparations to ensure that our personnel are safe and that business proceeds as normally as possible.

All WST offices will be closed on Thursday, September 13th and Friday, September 14th, consistent with mandatory evacuation orders in Norfolk and in the interest of safety in Raleigh and other locations. Where conditions permit, WST employees will be working remotely and the firm’s Disaster Recovery/ Business Continuity protocols will be in place.

We do anticipate disruptions to the firm’s phone service. If you have an urgent inquiry and are unable to reach the office or members of your Portfolio Management team, you are encouraged to email [email protected] and you will be connected ASAP with the proper resources.

While we can’t promise “business as usual,” WST will make every effort to ensure continuity of operations and client service in the coming week. We appreciate the understanding of all of our clients and to those impacted by the storm, we offer best wishes for a safe and dry few days.
