About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the MGA bond actually covers

A managing general agent (MGA) is an agent given broad authority by an insurer — to bind coverage, administer business, adjust or pay claims, or appoint sub-agents. New Hampshire regulates MGAs under RSA 402-E, through the Insurance Department, which requires an MGA to have a written contract with the insurer and to meet the Department's licensing and financial-responsibility standards.

The bond is a guarantee of the MGA's faithful performance of its duties and compliance with RSA 402-E. If an MGA mishandles premium or claim funds, or violates the statute, the insurer or harmed parties can look to the bond — it stands behind the trust the insurer places in the agent.

RSA 402-E does not set one fixed statutory bond amount; the Insurance Department sets the required figure as part of licensing. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Enter the amount on your application and your price, from $100, appears there, informed by a quick soft credit check.

RSA 402-ENew Hampshire RSA 402-E governs managing general agents, regulated by the Insurance Department. The chapter requires a written contract between the MGA and the insurer and sets licensing and financial-responsibility standards, including a bond and/or errors-and-omissions coverage. The statute does not fix a single bond amount — the Insurance Department sets the required figure. Confirm the amount on your MGA application.
