Bonds and guarantees

Increase your security, improve your financial position

A principal looking for a contractor to do a job wants to be certain that it will be carried out according to his wishes. After all, it can turn out to be an expensive business if a contractor does not complete the work on time or fails to deliver badly needed components: precious time is lost, there are knock-on problems with payment and financial losses.

Bonds and guarantees – the flexible alternative to safeguard your liquidity

So it is easy to understand why public works authorities and companies demand that you as their business partner put up security when awarding a contract to you. If your company bankers issue the guarantee in such a case it puts a strain on your credit line. The danger: the new contract you have just landed can endanger your liquidity before you know what is happening.

Euler Hermes bonds and guarantees can help you to avoid this pitfall. They not only take the pressure off your credit volume with your bank, they give you more room for manoeuvre in financing and growing your business.
Especially in view of today’s long warranty periods, which add to the constraints on your financial flexibility, you are choosing a safe solution if you take the long view and decide for Euler Hermes bonding cover.
