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.
