Georgia Surplus Lines Broker Bond: The Purpose

 

 

 

In addition to acting as a financial guarantee that you will be in compliance with all laws and regulations regarding being a surplus lines broker, this bond also serves as a financial pledge for the following:

  • That you will promptly pay any taxes owed in connection with your business;
  • That the insurance you place will be in accord with Code Section 33-5-25;
  • That you will give an accounting of any person who requests insurance and how those funds were used in the obtaining of insurance.

The bond’s purpose, therefore, is to protect others, both your customers and the state of Georgia,from any financial or other harm caused by the failure of a licensed surplus lines broker to comply with statutory regulations.

This is regardless of whether the harm was caused by negligence or malfeasance on the part of the surplus lines broker.
