Best Surety Bond Company & Insurance Nationwide

The surety bond is the contract between three different parties: the obligee (entity requiring the bond), the surety (company issuing the bond), and the principal (person applying for that surety bond). As your surety company, we review the licenses, credit, and experience of the business and owner before issuing the surety bonds.

Your application is given a risk category number and a premium based on the review from the underwriters and surety company’s rating system. The premium is what the principal pays once the application gets approved.

Overall, the obligee could file a claim to recover their losses if the principal doesn’t perform whatever act is agreed upon in the surety bond. Likewise, surety bond companies work with the obligee and principal to ensure the claim is valid.

Sometimes, surety bonds will protect the public instead of the principals. For instance, a notary bond protects the people from misconduct, negligence, and other non-performance issues caused by the notary public. If the notary is found at fault, a notary bond is the financial guarantee for reimbursement to the harmed party.

The surety bond covers an obligee, protecting them from financial harm. However, we are not an insurance company in the traditional sense. Insurance is a contract for risk management between the business/person being insured and an insurance company. Overall, the insurance policy guarantees the third party gets compensation when a loss occurs that’s covered in the insurance contract.

Though a surety bond is a contract to help manage risk, it’s between three parties. The bond promises that the principal performs the act. If they don’t do so, the obligee recovers their losses from that surety. Overall, surety bonds must get paid back by the principal if surety companies are forced to pay the obligee’s claim. Insurance isn’t repaid by the policyholder.

The best surety bond companies have surety bond costs that are fair and transparent. Usually, the price is determined by multiplying the coverage amount by the rate. Therefore, if you have a one percent fee on $100,000, the principal pays a $1,000 premium.

However, there are variables that can affect how much surety bonds cost. For example, different types can have varying prices. Some contracts and industries are higher risk than others. This could affect the premium and rate. Likewise, the applicant’s financial history, experience, and credit score can influence assigned rates.
