What the business opportunity bond actually covers
Connecticut regulates the sale of business opportunities under the Business Opportunity Investment Act (C.G.S. chapter 672c), administered by the Department of Banking. A business opportunity is generally a package sold to a buyer to start a business, often with claims about income, marketing assistance, or a buy-back guarantee.
A seller who makes certain income/earnings representations or buy-back promises must, under C.G.S. 36b-64, either obtain a surety bond of not less than $50,000 from a company authorized in Connecticut or establish an equivalent trust account at a Connecticut depository. The bond is in favor of the State of Connecticut, and the Banking Commissioner may require a greater amount to protect purchaser-investors.
The bond stands behind your obligations to the buyers you sell to — if a purchaser-investor is harmed by your violation of the Act, they can recover against it. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount required at a flat 3% with no credit check.
