About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the collection & servicing bond actually secures

Landmark Strategy Group, LLC is a receivables-management firm that passively purchases non-performing debt portfolios — credit card, auto deficiency, installment, and similar accounts — and then engages licensed collection agencies to work those portfolios on its behalf. A Collection and Servicing Agreement is the contract that spells out how the servicer collects, accounts for, and remits money owed to Landmark.

This bond is a private contractual security, not a New York statute — Landmark itself is the obligee, and the bond amount is whatever the servicing agreement between Landmark and the collection agency specifies. It backs the servicer's performance of that agreement: proper handling of consumer payments, accurate accounting, and timely remittance of collected funds to Landmark.

If a servicer mishandles collected funds or fails to remit as the agreement requires, Landmark can claim against the bond up to the stated amount, and the servicer then owes the surety for whatever it pays. Enter the bond amount your Collection and Servicing Agreement specifies; we price it from a $100 minimum, and the application includes a one-time soft-pull credit consent that never affects your score.

Landmark Strategy Group, LLC — Collection and Servicing Agreement (not a New York statute)Landmark Strategy Group, LLC, a New York receivables-management and debt-purchasing firm, requires a collection agency it engages to service its purchased receivables portfolios to post a surety bond as security for its performance under a Collection and Servicing Agreement. The bond amount and terms are set by that private contract between Landmark and the servicer, not by a New York statute or state licensing requirement.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

Send to Landmark Strategy Group. Submit the executed bond to satisfy your Collection and Servicing Agreement obligations. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever they insist.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, then a quick review.

These are the actual underwriting fields, including your contract date and a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Larger amounts may get a brief underwriter look, usually within 48 hours.

FAQ

Common questions.

What amount should I enter for the Landmark servicing bond?Enter the figure your Collection and Servicing Agreement with Landmark Strategy Group specifies. There is no published state minimum — the amount is whatever Landmark and the servicer agreed to in the contract.
What does the bond guarantee?It guarantees your performance under the servicing agreement — proper collection, accounting, and remittance of amounts owed to Landmark on the portfolios it assigns you. If you mishandle or fail to remit collected funds, Landmark can claim against the bond.
Where do I file it?Send the executed bond to Landmark Strategy Group, LLC as part of onboarding or renewing your Collection and Servicing Agreement — it is not filed with any New York state agency.
Do I pay the full bond amount?No. You pay a one-time premium — 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — not the bond amount itself. Landmark only collects against the bond if you fail to perform under the servicing agreement.
Is there a credit check?Yes: one soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
