What this bond does

Fidelity protection addresses covered employee dishonesty, theft and fraud involving business money, securities or property.

Who needs it
Business owners and organizations can apply for protection of their own loss.
Who is protected
The business's assets are the protected interest. Client-property protection should be checked against the actual requested form.

Choose from 2 options

Each option is a separate record. Where a term, bond amount, premium, or E&O limit is known, it is listed; match it to what your requirement asks for.

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.

Compare the proposal with your current protection

Have existing crime or fidelity documents handy to compare covered people and limits. Identify any contractors or volunteers you want included in this application.

Choose a period and select Purchase Now to open RLI in a new tab. Review the limit, start date and coverage conditions there.

Questions about this bond

Is a longer term broader coverage?

The period alone does not establish broader protection. Read the proposed terms for either choice.

Can contractors be covered?

RLI describes an optional contractor extension. Request it if needed and include them in the rating count.

What confirms coverage after applying?

Use the issued documents and effective date. Starting the application does not itself put protection in force.
