A surety bond is a risk transfer mechanism for the Principal and protects the Principal from the losses that may arise in case the contractor fails to perform its obligation.<\/p>\n<p> As per the guidelines by the regulator, all the general insurers who are registered under the Insurance Act, 1938 to transact in the business of general insurance are eligible to handle the business related to surety bonds.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;With Surety Bonds, there will be a new class of business for the general insurance industry. We are optimistic that this risk management tool will help the insurance industry grow thus increasing the insurance penetration in India.
