Fidelity & ERISA Bonds
Fidelity bonds protect a business from employee theft; ERISA bonds satisfy the federal requirement to bond anyone who handles plan assets. Both issue fast.
A fidelity bond protects a business against loss from dishonest acts by its employees. An ERISA bond is the specific fidelity coverage required by federal law for every person who handles funds of an employee benefit plan — generally at least 10% of plan assets, up to the statutory cap.
These are straightforward and inexpensive to place. We make sure the limit satisfies the requirement and issue promptly.
