Nebraska regulates consumer lending under the Nebraska Installment Loan and Sales Act, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 45-334 to 45-380, administered by the Department of Banking and Finance. An applicant for a license under the Act must file a surety bond of $50,000, furnished by a surety company authorized to do business in Nebraska — and the bond increases by an additional $50,000 for each branch location the applicant licenses.
The bond is for the use of the State of Nebraska and any Nebraska resident who may have claims or causes of action against the licensee. It stands behind the conduct rules the Act imposes on installment lenders — the rate, fee, disclosure, and record requirements that protect borrowers. The surety may cancel only on thirty days’ prior written notice to the Director.
A licensee that employs or contracts with a licensed mortgage loan originator must also post a supplemental surety bond, starting at $100,000 and scaling with closed or serviced residential mortgage loan volume. The bond is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
Submit the application with the bond amount your license requires — the executed bond is generated the moment you pay, ready to upload to NMLS.
