About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A viatical settlement broker represents a policy owner in negotiating the sale of a life insurance policy to a settlement provider. Oklahoma licenses brokers through the Insurance Commissioner under the Viatical Settlements Act, 36 O.S. §§ 4055.1–4055.17, and 36 O.S. § 4055.3 conditions that license on evidence of financial responsibility in the amount of $50,000. Since November 1, 2019 the figure has been fixed rather than sliding.

The statute lets you satisfy it with a surety bond issued by an insurer authorized to write surety in Oklahoma, a policy of errors and omissions insurance, a deposit of cash, certificates of deposit or securities, or any combination — the bond is simply the least capital-intensive of those routes. The obligee is the State of Oklahoma through the Insurance Department, and the protected parties are the viators you represent.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The financial-responsibility evidence has to stay in force for the life of the license, which renews annually, so we track the term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.

36 O.S. § 4055.3 (Oklahoma Viatical Settlements Act)Section 4055.3 requires a viatical settlement broker to provide the Insurance Commissioner with evidence of financial responsibility in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) — through a surety bond executed and issued by an insurer authorized to issue surety bonds in this state, a policy of errors and omissions insurance, or a deposit of cash, certificates of deposit or securities, or any combination of those. Senate Bill 1010 fixed the broker figure at $50,000 effective November 1, 2019.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Oklahoma viatical settlement broker bond?The premium is $500 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every viatical settlement broker. The $50,000 amount is set by 36 O.S. § 4055.3, so there is no quote process, and the price you see is the checkout price.
Do I pay the $50,000?No. You pay $500. The $50,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Can I use E&O insurance instead?Yes — 36 O.S. § 4055.3 lets you show financial responsibility with a surety bond, an errors and omissions policy, or a deposit of cash or securities totaling $50,000. Most brokers choose the bond because it is the cheapest route to the same evidence.
Is there a credit check?This application carries a credit-consent section, and the screen it authorizes is a soft pull only — never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. The price stays $500 flat either way.
Is the provider bond the same filing?No. A viatical settlement provider buys the policies and holds a separate license with its own $50,000 financial-responsibility evidence. If you do both, you file both bonds.
