Construction Rebound Boosts Surety Bond Sector
11/30/2015
The surety bond sector looks to register its second consecutive year of growth, led by the private construction sector as the economy slowly improves.

Increase of Surety Bond Sales for the Construction Industry

With the pickup in overall construction, construction surety bond sales also have increased, according to the Washington-based Surety & Fidelity Association of America. Direct written premiums totaled $5.50 billion in 2014, a 4.7% increase compared with 2013 and just $2 million shy of the record in 2008, according to the association. “There has been an increase in the demand for surety bonds, … but I believe we are only getting back to where we were in 2008,” said Thomas Niland, vice-president and surety practice leader at Cook Maran & Associates in Melville, New York.
