Service Provider Bonds
These bonds help service providers meet ERISA bonding regulations.
Understanding Service Provider Bond
A Service Provider Bond is required for Third-Party Administrators and other service providers when they handle, manage, receive, or have authority over ERISA plan funds or assets.
The bond:
-
Protects the ERISA plan and its participants, not the service provider
-
Covers losses caused by fraud or dishonest acts (e.g., theft, embezzlement, misappropriation)
-
Is mandated under ERISA Section 412
For help in determining if you need this coverage, please visit the DOL Field Assistance Bulletin 2008-04 and review Q8 and Q18.
