Leading Surety Technology Vendors Developing Integration that Streamlines Surety Bond Issuance From Cradle-to-Grave

Tampa, Florida USA and Kansas City, Missouri USA, Ontario Canada, April 10, 2024Bond-Pro, the leading Surety underwriting and issuance technology, is excited to announce a joint partnership with Surety2000, the leading Surety bond electronic signature and authentication technology in the United States and Xenex Enterprises, the leading Surety bond electronic signature and authentication technology in Canada.

Surety bonds are a multiple party agreement. They require proof of approval by an Insurer, Agent, and the Insured (known as Principals). Surety bond requirements are dictated by thousands of independent legislative bodies known as Obligees. To this day, the most widely accepted method of bond document authenticity and verification is raised seals coupled with wet signatures. Transitioning Obligees from traditional to electronic methods is often challenging. It involves a Bond e-signature authority 1) successfully lobbying each Obligee to legally accept electronically signed bond documents and 2) prove their ability to guarantee bond specific authenticity and controls such as a centralized repository of Insurer’s raised seals, power of attorney instruments, agent authorities and limits, and attorney in facts. This is the primary reason why Surety bonds cannot simply be signed and executed using the most popular e-signature vendors. Surety2000 and Xenex have provided these capabilities for decades and are widely accepted by many Obligees, however, recently emerging industry initiatives have introduced new challenges. As a result of these combined factors, proliferation of electronically signed bond documents has been far slower than in other industries.

“Our customers want to completely automate bond processing down to zero human touch.”, said Frederick Duguay, President & CEO of Bond-Pro. “Bond-Pro delivers state of the art Surety underwriting, decision making, and document generation capabilities. But a challenge remains in the last step of the process with respect to bond document e-Signature and e-Verification. Surety2000 and Xenex are the de facto leading Surety electronic signature vendors in both the United States and Canada respectively. Bridging Bond-Pro to these platforms achieves a uniform, single point of Integration enabling our clients to issue bonds far faster and cheaper than their competition.

Joseph M Sforzo, COO of Surety2000 said, “Every major surety company along with most of the surety brokerage community use our system daily for E-Bonding. Additionally, Surety2000 also has strategic relationships with online bidding systems. Integration with Bond-Pro further reduces the number of steps necessary to issue an electronic bond enabling bonds to be electronically issued directly within a Surety Underwriting and Management system. “

“In Canada, bonds are defined as deeds, which the courts have defined as requiring to be signed, sealed and delivered in original copy.”, said Lorice Haig, President of Xenex. “Our proprietary digital protection and detection technology achieves the threshold criteria of electronic bonds. Integrity of Content (assuring documents cannot be changed or altered), Secure/Restricted Access, and Verifiability/Enforceability (the bond was duly executed and is enforceable by law).”
