Public Official Bond

Many states require public officials to maintain a surety bond. These surety bonds guarantee that the public official (the principal) will carry out their official responsibilities ethically and fairly – particularly with respect to handling public funds. In short, Public Official bonds protect taxpayers from any fraudulent actions of elected officials.

These surety bonds assure the recovery of fines, fees, and or expenses, levied by state regulators for non-compliance with state regulations and ordinances. These bonds also assure recovery of losses incurred, that result from a public official’s non-compliance with these regulations.
