Texas Business Services Bond

 

 

 

A Texas business services bond is a type of fiduciary surety bond.

By fiduciary is meant that the purchaser of the bond (the principal) is enacting in a trustee capacity with respect to the obligations of the bond.

 

 

 

The Texas Business Services Bond: What it is…

 

 

 

The Texas business services bond is a surety bond purchased by:

  • A principal (the business establishment);
  • Which protects the property, monies, and securities of the customers of the business;
  • From criminal acts committed by the employees, operators, and managers of the business against the property, monies, or securities of the customer;
  • Upon conviction in a Texas court of law.

 

 

Regulation of the Texas Business Services Bond

 

 

 

The Texas business services bond is regulated by the Texas Department of Insurance.

The obligee, that is the persons or entities who required this fiduciary bond, will be dependent upon the nature and type of business being bonded.

Duration of the TX Business Services Bond

 

 

 

Once issued, the business services bond is active for one year.

Thereafter, it must be renewed to stay current.

 

 

 

Is the Texas Business Services Bond an Insurance Policy?

 

 

 

No.

This bond is a surety bond which is issued as a financial guarantee to protect your customers and their property.

Unlike an insurance policy, it does not protect the business at all.

Rather, it is a policy which the business purchases to protect their customers from wrongdoing by the business.

 

 

 

If a claim were paid on the bond, what is the buyer’s (the principal’s) responsibility?

 

 

 

With surety bonds, any claims paid by the surety are the legal and financial liability of the principal.

While the surety may pay a claim, the surety will seek to recuperate all costs (the claims, plus any type of related fees) from the principal.

It is ultimately the legal responsibility of the principal to reimburse, in full, any claims paid by the surety to the obligee.
