Commercial Surety
Learn how your organization can benefit from commercial surety.
Today’s competitive landscape, coupled with a volatile economic outlook, demands surety program certainty and sustainability. An efficient bond program can enhance corporate liquidity and maximize working capital.
What is Commercial Surety Bonding?
Surety bonds are financial instruments used between three parties: the principal, the obligee and the surety entity issuing the bond. Surety bonds offer the advantages of helping clients meet capital requirements, optimize their cost of capital, and provide an off-balance sheet solution to letters of credit.
Why is Commercial Surety Important?
-
Provides Financial Security for Organizations
By guaranteeing the performance of contractual obligations, surety bonds protect the business and the parties it contracts with from potential financial losses due to a breach of contract or the inability to fulfill obligations.
-
Can Increase Financial Flexiblity
Companies using commercial surety bonds can increase their financial flexibility and may improve their ability to win contracts or obtain permits and licenses. Surety bonds can also build trust and confidence with potential customers and partners.
