Bonds Insurance

Surety & Fidelity Bonds

Surety bond insurance is a contract between those who are performing certain tasks, the principal, an insurance company, the surety, and the person or organization requiring the bond, the obligee. Essentially, surety bond insurance is a written promise that an insurance company will protect the assets of the obligee and back up the promises made by the principal. They’re guarantees that specific tasks or obligations will be fulfilled. If not, the obligee can recover losses by filing a claim. Assuming the claim is valid, they’ll be paid reparations as high as the bond amount. With surety bond insurance, obligees get a legal contract that helps protect against losses caused by a certain party not meeting the agreed-upon contractual obligations.

Fidelity bonds are a form of business insurance and are very similar to surety bond insurance in the sense that they grant an employer protection against losses caused by an employee’s dishonest or fraudulent actions. The protection offered by fidelity bond insurance extends to both criminal actions an employee takes against the company itself and the company’s clientele. Fidelity bond insurance in Colorado protects against both monetary and physical losses and is considered a crucial component of an effective risk management strategy. It also protects a company from being subject to certain legal or financial penalties. In the event that an employee, or employees, commits a wrongful act. This makes fidelity bond insurance especially important for large companies with thousands of employees that put them at an increased risk of being subject to such penalties as a result of their employee’s wrongdoing.
