STAMP Surety Bond
A signature guarantee is required by a Transfer Agent before a security can be sold or otherwise transferred. The STAMP Surety Bond is the official signature guarantee program recognized and approved by the financial industry and endorsed by the Securities Transfer Association. Purchasing a STAMP Surety Bond assures the financial institution that its guarantees will be immediately accepted for processing by Transfer Agents.
The STAMP Surety Bond should be equal to the largest security transaction to be guaranteed by the financial institution.
Availability
STAMP Surety Bond Limits are available up to $5,000,000.
