Built for the trust administration.
When the court or the trust instrument requires a trustee to be bonded, the bond has to be in place before you administer the trust. Here is the whole process:
Send us the file
Apply online with the order or trust provision requiring bond, the trust’s assets and value, and the trustee’s details. The value of the trust drives the penal sum.
A surety specialist underwrites it
A specialist reviews the trust, the trustee’s credit and finances, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The amount is fixed by the court — underwriting decides approval and collateral.
Execute & file
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to file so you can administer the trust.
What it is and who needs it.
What a trustee bond secures
A trustee holds and manages assets for the benefit of others under a trust. When the court or the trust instrument requires bonding, the trustee posts a bond before — or as a condition of — administering the trust.
The trustee bond guarantees faithful performance of the trustee’s duties: prudently investing, accounting, and distributing the trust assets as the trust and the law require. If the trustee breaches those duties, the bond protects the beneficiaries, and the surety looks to the trustee to repay it.
Because the surety stands behind the trust assets, the bond is underwritten on the trustee’s credit and finances, and a large trust can require collateral. We tell you what a given file needs before you commit.
