Bond Referral

Non-Standard Surety Bond Referral

Bond Referrals to CCI Surety

Standard markets are designed to give the best possible bond rates on contract bonds to clients that have strong and sophisticated financials and favorable credit reports. When a surety is unable to extend a bond program, there is a secondary market for contract bonds. CCI Surety focuses on this type of business and may be able to write bonds for contractors with weaker financial preparation or low credit scores.

Agents Shop Accounts

Sometimes the account may only need a non-standard market bond line for a short time while they reorganize or strengthen financials. Once your account is ready, it will likely return to the original standard surety for consideration.
If you decline an account and the agent brings it to market that handles non-standard accounts as well as standard accounts, then a new relationship begins that may provide more competition for that agent’s standard accounts as well. CCI Surety is a non-standard-only market, and we will not have the capacity to compete on standard accounts with your agent.

Quick Program or Fast Track Bond Referrals

CCI Surety can also be a home for accounts that have been declined by your standard market quick bond programs. Quick Programs often have minimum credit scores and other standards that must be met in order to write the bond. CCI Surety has similar programs that have no credit score minimum. The size of each program may vary but CCI Surety does utilize non-standard quick programs that may not require any financials up to $400,000. In some cases, more financial information may be required, but typically in-house financials may suffice.

Start Bond Referral Process

CCI Surety can start from whatever submissions and applications agents have already filled out for your surety. Your agent starts by getting in touch directly with an underwriter that will be making a decision on their account. They will follow up with any information they may need to keep your account moving forward.
