Surety and fidelity bonding provides critical financial protections

Surety and fidelity bonds are an essential risk management tool and public policy function. While the types of bonds are different, the overarching purpose remains the same – to provide financial protection to businesses, families, and consumers by guaranteeing contractual obligations are met through the securement of a bond.
With these protections in place, businesses are able to grow and flourish, critical infrastructure developments are successfully carried through to completion, and companies are protected from wrongful acts of their employees – all of which positively support the economy.
