Losing an important financial instrument? Well, that one is headache-inducing.

 

There are requirements that you need to fulfill before your precious instrument is replaced. One of the most important of which is a surety bond.

 

A surety bond is one of the most important requirements of having a lost instrument replaced. Issuing authorities will require you to submit this type of bond to protect them in case another person files a claim on the instrument that’s been replaced.

 

This type of surety bond will also act as an assurance that if the principal found the lost instrument after it has been replaced, the principal will surrender the new one to the issuing authority or surety for proper disposal.
