Surety

A surety bond guarantees that a contract will be honoured. The beneficiary gets the same protection as with a bank guarantee, and the client keeps its credit lines and cash free. FIRMA delivers surety through PTMGA, its managing general agent registered with the ASF, on behalf of rated insurers and reinsurers.

Bid

Required to take part in public and private tenders. It shows that the bidder is serious and will sign the contract if it wins.

Performance

Guarantees to the contract owner that the works or services will be delivered as agreed. If the contrator fails, the beneficiary is compensated up to the amount of the bond.

Third Party Builders

Covers the obligations of builders and developers towards buyers and third parties, such as deposits paid before a property is delivered.

Financial-Credit

Payment / Non-Payment

Guarantees payment obligations to suppliers and beneficiaries, and protects lenders and trade financiers against a borrower's or buyer's failure to pay.

Customs
