Questions about this bond
Do I buy a separate bond for each office?
The rule calls for one appropriately sized aggregate company bond regardless of office count. Use the total required amount.
Is this the letter-of-exemption route?
No. Match the company's registration or exemption instructions to the appropriate separate offering.
