What is a surety bond?
A surety bond is a three-party agreement between the principal (you), the obligee (your client or governing entity), and the surety (the insurer). The bond guarantees that you’ll fulfill your obligations—whether that’s completing a project, following regulations, or honoring financial commitments.
If an obligation isn’t met, the surety helps cover the resulting financial loss, ensuring that the obligee is protected.
How do surety bonds work?
Suppose a government agency hires a contractor to build a bridge. The agency needs assurance that the work will be finished as agreed. The answer is a surety bond. The contractor pays a premium to an insurer to purchase the surety bond. The insurer then pays the necessary compensation to the agency if the contractor fails to deliver. The big difference between this and ordinary insurance is that the insurer can and will go after the contractor to get this money back. The point of the surety bond is that the agency gets the assurance that it won’t have to chase after the money itself.
