What the deposit bond actually covers
Norwich Public Utilities (NPU) is the municipal utility owned by the City of Norwich, providing water, gas, and electric service. Like most utilities, NPU can require a deposit on a commercial account to secure the bills the customer will run up before payment.
Instead of leaving cash on deposit with the utility, you post a surety bond. It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Norwich Public Utilities (the obligee). If your account goes unpaid, NPU can recover against the bond up to the deposit amount.
You keep your capital instead of locking it up, and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — so keeping the account current keeps the bond a formality.
