Key Differences in Fidelity Bonds

Broker Path Versus ProEx Placement

Coverdash arranges fidelity bonds as a broker under its standard terms and shows them as one of four bond types. HUB also brokers rather than underwrites, but it places Crime/Fidelity with its ProEx executive-risk team and lists Financial Institution Bonds as a separate financial-institutions offering. 3 4 8

What the Catalog Actually Describes

Coverdash’s reviewed card says the bond protects clients against employee dishonesty and stops there. HUB’s ProEx list names Crime/Fidelity and Financial Institution Bonds without describing insuring agreements, dishonest-act scenarios or exclusions for either. 4 8

Buying Route and Extra Services

You can start Coverdash’s digital quote-to-purchase process for the fidelity option. HUB directs prospects to a ProEx specialist rather than an online bind flow, and says that team provides analytics, litigation support and risk-management services. Neither reviewed page names the issuing carrier or a bond amount. 4 8

What to Confirm in Fidelity Bonds Quotes

  • Ask Coverdash for the issuing surety and whether the bond is written for your own loss, your clients’ loss, or both. 4
  • Ask HUB whether the quote is Crime/Fidelity, a financial institution bond, or both, and which carrier is on the form. 8
  • Compare penalty amounts and retentions; Coverdash and HUB both leave those off the public pages. 4 8
  • Ask HUB which ProEx analytics or litigation-support services would attach to this placement. 8

Role in This Line

Coverdash arranges fidelity bonds as a broker rather than an insurer, placing coverage with a carrier under its standard brokerage terms. 3,4Company-reported. General brokerage terms applied to the fidelity-bonds card on the surety-bond page; not specific to any one carrier or state.

HUB places crime and fidelity bond coverage, including financial institution bonds, through its ProEx Professional & Executive Risk practice alongside other executive-liability and financial-institution lines, rather than underwriting these bonds itself. 8Company-reported. ProEx page coverage list, read 2026-09-23. The page does not name an issuing insurer for Crime/Fidelity or Financial Institution Bonds.

Issuing Insurer

The surety-bond page does not name the insurer that issues fidelity bonds. 4Not publicly disclosed. Reviewed surety-bond page as of 2026-09-23; the page describes coverage without naming a specific carrier.

No insurer is named for Crime/Fidelity or Financial Institution Bonds on the ProEx page; HUB says ProEx places over $2 billion in premium with carriers it calls top-rated, without naming them. 8Not found in reviewed sources. Checked the ProEx page on 2026-09-23.

Who It’s For

The surety-bond page's eligibility description (contractors, licensed trades and businesses bidding on contracts) is written for surety bonds generally and does not separately describe who needs a fidelity bond specifically. 4Not found in reviewed sources.

No size, industry or state eligibility criteria specific to fidelity bonds or financial institution bonds were found on the ProEx page. 8Not found in reviewed sources. Checked the ProEx page on 2026-09-23; these coverages are listed among many others without their own eligibility description.

Coverage Features

Coverdash's surety-bond page describes fidelity bonds in a single line as protecting clients against loss from employee dishonesty; it does not have a dedicated fidelity-bond product page. 4Company-reported. One catalog card on the surety-bond page, not a full product description. Fidelity bonds are a distinct crime-type coverage rather than a three-party surety guarantee, even though Coverdash lists them on the same page as its surety bonds.

HUB directs prospects for these coverages to contact a ProEx specialist rather than an online quote or bind flow. 8Company-reported. ProEx page call to action.
