Year 2000 Compliance Position
Magna has committed what it
believes are significant resources to meeting its goal
of achieving full year 2000 compliance by December 31, 1998. A
dedicated internal
task force, supplemented with outside consulting resources, has
worked to evaluate
the scope of the situation and developed a comprehensive action
plan. The task
force has completed a number of portions of its plan. Areas being
addressed
include: in-house developed programs, PC and client services
applications, hardware
upgrades, mainframe operating system and banking applications,
third-party vendor
assessments, and compliance testing.
Magna envisions compliance of its
systems to be in line with the following Federal
Reserve definition:
Software and hardware systems
are defined as compliant if they can demonstrate
correct management and manipulation of data involving dates,
including single-
century and multi-century formulas, without causing an abnormally
ended scenario
within the system of data exchanges via applications interfaces,
as well as data
spanning the period before, during, and after the turn of the
century.
Should you have any specific
questions about our Year 2000 activities, please contact
your Magna Relationship Officer.
We look forward to serving you in this century and the next.
