What Should You Watch for With Fidelity Bonds in Nevada?

Check Who the Bond Protects
NAC 678.020 uses the credit union’s assets to determine minimum coverage. Recheck the required amount after growth, a merger, or a material change in cash handling. Ask the regulator or appointing institution to confirm who receives payment after a covered loss; a required bond may protect a client or institution rather than reimburse your company. ^1,²
Match the Bond to Covered Roles

Separate the Bond from Your Crime Policy
Nevada’s rule sets a specific bond obligation for credit unions. Ask the agent to compare that bond with first-party employee-theft, forgery, funds-transfer, and computer-fraud coverage; confirm whether the bond limit can be used for your own loss.

Which Fidelity Bonds Providers Have Nevada License Records?

These providers publish a national listing for Fidelity bonds; the license records below name the licensed entities and roles. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in Nevada. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed. The remaining state entries are company-reported and are not an insurance product availability map. ¹⁵

Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. ¹⁶

When Nevada is the insured’s home state, Nevada taxes surplus-lines coverage at the rate imposed on similar admitted coverage and adds any approved filing fee; the rate therefore depends on the line and applicable fee approval. Nevada law requires a diligent effort to place coverage with authorized insurers except where the statutory exempt-commercial-purchaser conditions apply, and the policy must warn that the Nevada Insurance Guaranty Association will not cover the contract.
