Hawaii Open Penalty Lost Security Surety Bonds (Open Penalty Lost Instrument Surety Bonds)

What are Open Penalty Lost Security Surety Bonds?

Open Penalty Lost Security Surety Bonds, also known as Open Penalty Lost Instrument Surety Bonds, are necessary for individuals and businesses in the event that items with a fluctuating market value, such as stock certificates, are lost, stolen or destroyed.

These financial guarantee surety bonds ensure the replacement of these securities at no loss to the original issuer, as well as their secure return and proper disposal in the event that the original is later recovered.

Who requires Open Penalty Lost Security Bonds?

When you lose a financial instrument and you request the issuer to replace it, the financial institution will require a bond to guarantee they will not lose money by paying the amount of the lost instrument’s worth more than once. Since the principal is the one who lost the stock certificate, they are the one required to purchase the bond.

If the lost certificate is found after the bond has been issued, it must be returned to the surety company that issued the bond. If a claim is filed against the bond and you have failed to return the certificate, the surety may compensate the claimant. In that event, the principal would be responsible for reimbursing the surety company for any monies paid out, including attorney’s fees.

How much are Open Penalty Lost Security Surety Bonds written for?

The bond amount for Open Penalty Lost Security Surety Bonds varies and is set by the financial institution that issued the lost certificate and is requiring the bond.

Please consult with your financial company for the bond amount and term length you will require.
