In "Emergency Management for Records and Information Management
Programs" (Jones & Keyes, ARMA International, 2000), I quoted as source
as follows:
"A television broadcast, called 'Information Technology Forum,' reported
that two out of five companies that experience a disaster will not
recover from the disaster, and one will fail within the next five
years." The source for the info was Leslie Butterfield, "What Matters
is Not What Happens," System Management 3X/400 23, no. 4 (April 1995):
[page] 40.

I had seen a report providing statistics on the impact of loss of
records/
information on a business. This has statistics like nn% of businesses
failed within 2 years of having lost all their documents/information.
If you have seen this can you please point me in the right direction.
Many thanks in advance
