A court-appointed receiver, master, or referee takes control of property or a business under the court’s authority.
Under 735 ILCS 5/2-415, the appointing court sets the penalty and approves the security.
These bonds are underwritten, not flat-rated.

The receivership can’t proceed until the bond the court ordered is filed and approved. Here is the whole process:
Apply online with the appointment order setting the penalty and the scope of the receivership. We size from the figure and assets the court identified.
A surety specialist reviews the receivership, the receiver’s background, and indemnity. Larger estates may call for financials or collateral — we raise that up front.
We issue the executed bond so it can be filed and approved by the appointing court, letting the receiver take possession and act.
When a court appoints a receiver — or a master or referee — to take charge of property, a business, or disputed assets, that person holds significant control over value that belongs to others.
A receiver bond guarantees the receiver will faithfully perform the duties of the office and account for the property under their control. If the receiver mismanages or misappropriates the assets, the affected parties can recover against the bond.
Because the exposure is the receivership estate, the appointing court fixes the penalty and approves the security, and these bonds are underwritten rather than flat-rated. Larger receiverships may require financials or collateral. We size and quote once we see the order.
