Fidelity and crime protection is often called bonding in everyday conversation, but it should be distinguished from contract surety. The central question is whose loss is insured and what dishonest conduct the wording addresses.

A practical comparison guide
Map access to money, inventory and payment systems. Explain employee roles, subcontractors, client property and controls for changing banking instructions. Ask separately about employee theft, forgery, social engineering and computer-related crime. Similar-sounding products can have different triggers and verification conditions.
Before requesting terms, identify the party requiring the bond, the exact obligation and the approved form. Ask about underwriting information, indemnity commitments, collateral if applicable, and how cancellation or release works. Keep written confirmation of acceptance. A quotation, application or payment receipt is not the same as an issued and accepted bond.
Use current documents. If a detail is uncertain, identify it for the provider instead of guessing.
No. Ask what protection the client requires and obtain the actual wording or certificate. Employee dishonesty coverage for your own loss may not address a client's loss, and subcontractors may be treated differently.
For a bond, the obligation, financial position, experience and required wording are part of the discussion. Ask for all costs and indemnity requirements before proceeding. Acceptance is subject to the surety and obligee.
Insurance Genie helps you prepare an insurance enquiry. A participating licensed professional must confirm availability and the terms of any proposal. For legal or contractual obligations, obtain advice from the appropriate qualified adviser.

Be prepared
Hypothetical situations to help you prepare questions—not actual client claims or promises of coverage.
Scenario: Someone alleges an injury arose from the business operations.
What happens next: Preserve incident records and notify the insurer. Declared activities, liability wording and the facts determine whether a policy responds.
Scenario: Equipment used by the business is damaged or stolen.
What happens next: Document ownership, location and cause. Ask the insurer to review the insured property, exclusions, valuation and deductible.
Scenario: Damage prevents the business from operating normally.
What happens next: Keep revenue and expense records. Business interruption depends on the insured trigger, selected coverage and applicable terms.
Actual outcomes depend on the facts and applicable wording. Read claims guidance · Ask about the next step
