Missouri receiver bonds.
Security for the assets you’ll control.

When a Missouri court appoints a receiver, master, or referee, it usually requires a bond before that person takes control of the property.
Under the Commercial Receivership Act (RSMo §515.530), the bond runs in favor of everyone with an interest in the receivership.
The court fixes the amount to the assets, so the bond is underwritten, not flat-rated.
Tell us the value under control and a specialist quotes it, usually within one business day.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What a receiver bond secures

A receiver is a neutral person the court appoints to take custody of property in dispute — a business, real estate, or other assets — and manage or liquidate it under court supervision. Because the receiver controls assets that belong to others, the court requires security.

Under the Missouri Commercial Receivership Act (RSMo §515.500–§515.665), the receiver gives bond as the court directs. Per §515.530, unless the court orders otherwise the bond runs in favor of all persons having an interest in the receivership proceeding or property, and in favor of state agencies.

The court fixes the amount to the value of the assets under the receiver’s control. Because that figure is matter-specific, the bond is individually underwritten, not flat-rated. The same framework covers masters and referees the court appoints in equity.

Missouri StatuteThe Missouri Commercial Receivership Act, RSMo §515.500–§515.665, governs receiver bonds; §515.530 provides that the bond runs in favor of all persons with an interest in the receivership and in favor of state agencies. The appointing court fixes the amount.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

What is a Missouri receiver bond? +
It is the security a court-appointed receiver posts before taking control of property in dispute. Under the Commercial Receivership Act (RSMo §515.530) the bond runs in favor of all persons with an interest in the receivership and in favor of state agencies, guaranteeing the receiver handles and accounts for the assets faithfully.
Who sets the bond amount? +
The appointing court, fixed to the value of the assets the receiver will control. Because the penal sum is matter-specific, the bond is underwritten, not flat-rated. Tell us the figure the court fixed and a specialist returns a quote.
How much does it cost? +
There is no flat rate. Premium is underwritten to the penal sum the court set and the receiver’s profile. Larger asset pools may involve a soft credit check or collateral, which we flag up front.
Does this cover masters and referees too? +
Yes. The same framework covers special masters and referees the court appoints in equity and requires to give security. We size and underwrite the bond to whatever the appointing order specifies.
How fast can you turn it around? +
A specialist typically responds within one business day. Cleaner files can be quoted and issued quickly so you can take control on schedule; larger asset pools take a little longer if collateral or financials come into play.
