Overview

Surety bonds — bid, performance, security, and advance payment — guarantee your obligations on tenders and contracts, unlocking opportunities you'd otherwise be locked out of.

Why this cover

Most public and private tenders in Kenya require bidders to furnish a bid bond and, once awarded, a performance bond. Without them, you simply can't bid.

Cover options

01

Bid / Tender Bond

Guarantees compensation to the project owner if a bidder fails to honour their tender or withdraws after winning.

02

Performance Bond

Guarantees the contractor completes the project according to the contract.

03

Advance Payment Bond

Protects the client's advance payment against the contractor's failure to perform.

Key benefits
