Uniform Surety Data

SuretyScience maintains several  centralized databases containining evergreened surety data that fuel our products and promote the adoption of industry‑wide data standards. 


In the Surety industry, it is common for agencies to be granted broad authority to issue bonds independently of insurer systems. As a result, the lack of uniformity in how agencies structure and report surety information remains a primary reason why insurers must manually reconcile these submissions before the data can be accurately ingested.

These data sources may also be consumed by Insurer homegrown systems, commercially available Surety platforms, and others to ensure uniformity across all stakeholders and streamline the Surety lifecycle.
