Electronic Surety Bond
Electronic Surety Bond – General
An electronic surety bond replaces traditional bonds that are printed, signed and usually sealed by the issuing surety. The transition to various surety bond formats has occurred rather slowly and intermittently across different areas. Eventually most if not all surety bonds will be issued electronically.
What is an NMLS Electronic Surety Bond?
Initially, Electronic Surety Bonds, were associated with only Mortgage Broker Bonds and other mortgage related bonds. Many different entities require bonds including state and local governments and many other various regulatory entities. As more obligees that require bonds began to use the existing NMLS platform to facilitate electronic surety bonds, NMLS started to expand services. In the future more obligees will utilize Electronic Surety Bonds as their primary bond management tool.

Clients Declined for Electronic Surety Bond
Electronic Surety Bonds come in many forms. Not only does CCI Surety have access to Electronic Surety Bonds, we handle accounts that have low credit score or other challenges. Obtaining a Electronic Surety Bond when your client has low credit score can be challenging for contractors and insurance agents that do not have a relationship with a surety that handles low credit score bond situations. CCI Surety handles low credit score bond accounts on a daily basis and our underwriters are trained to look beyond the low credit score to look for opportunities to underwrite the bond. It may take more work but if your client has other strong attributes or experience, then our underwriters will do their best to turn the low credit score bond situation into an opportunity.
