On April 1, the governor of Florida issued an executive order requiring all senior citizens and individuals with a significant underlying medical condition to stay at home. The order also requires all persons in Florida to remain at home unless necessary to obtain or provide essential services or conduct essential activities. The order refers to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce for inclusion of “essential services.”  This list includes financial services institutions and their workers.
