Surety
Backing your commitments with confidence.

Every contractual commitment is a promise. To deliver, to perform, to complete. Surety gives your counterpart confidence in case you don’t honour your obligations.
When your promise needs a guarantee
Surety provides security for contractual obligations. It gives your counterpart confidence that agreed terms will be met and offers protection if they are not. Whether you need a bid bond to participate in a tender, a performance bond to secure proper contract execution, or a warranty bond, we advise you on the appropriate surety solution and place the instrument that fits your contractual and risk profile.
From single guarantees to framework agreements
Surety needs vary. Some clients need a single guarantee for a specific contract. Others operate in sectors — construction, shipping, public procurement — where guarantees are simply a requirement. For these clients, we provide access to surety capacity through framework agreements, on consistent terms, so the focus stays on the business rather than the paperwork.
A specialised discipline that rewards expertise
Surety is a technical market with a limited number of players. Knowing which insurers have appetite for your risk and how to present your case makes a significant difference to the terms you obtain – or whether you’re offered cover at all. Our specialists have deep experience in surety placement across multiple industries and jurisdictions, and building the right solution is where that shows.

Surety as a financial tool
A surety bond does double duty. For your counterpart, it provides comfort. For you, it replaces cash deposits or bank guarantees, freeing up your credit lines and improving your liquidity. Capital tied up in collateral is capital that can’t grow your business. With surety, you preserve it for what matters.
When guarantees aren’t optional
In many industries, surety is not optional. Clients, partners and authorities require formal guarantees before a contract is signed or a project begins. If you operate across borders, from Switzerland into markets where performance requirements and legal frameworks differ, having the right surety partner matters.
