The coverage amount describes a limit of protection, not the price. Match the requested protection and covered persons to the actual fidelity form. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Is the employer insured for all business risks?
This bond protects the plan against covered fraud or dishonesty. It does not replace general business liability coverage.
Can fiduciary liability insurance satisfy bonding?
No. It addresses fiduciary duties and does not satisfy ERISA's fidelity bonding requirement.
Does the longer term raise the limit?
Selecting three years does not itself increase the amount. Confirm the required amount separately.
