THE SURETY INSURANCE IS A WAY TO GUARANTEE AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN PARTIES
Just as we dress appropriately to see a client, we also have to dress appropriately when we want to request financing.
Thus, the surety insurance becomes a non-bank financial instrument that directly or indirectly allows improving the financial management of a company.
By using surety bonds v. bank guarantees it already allows a benefit by reducing the Bank of Spain Credit Reporting Agency financial risk and improves the bank credit scorings and, therefore, the capacities and prices to which we have access.
But it also implies that banks do not have access to sensitive information such as guarantees for tax deferrals, judicial guarantees, guarantees between private parties, or guarantees for security companies that imply a contribution of additional guarantees such as mortgages, guarantees from members, or pledges.
