SURETIES & GUARANTEES
Performance Bond
Performance Bond Insurance in Singapore is a type of surety bond that protects the project owner if the contractor fails to complete a job as promised. It acts as a financial guarantee that the work will be done according to the contract terms.
APPLICATION
01
Additional Information
This bond involves three parties:
The project owner (also called the obligee) who requires the bond
The contractor (the principal) who is performing the work
The insurance company (the surety) that provides the bond and promises to pay if the contractor defaults
If the contractor fails to meet their obligations (for instance, if they abandon the project, miss deadlines, or deliver poor-quality work) the project owner can make a claim on this performance guarantee bond. The surety (insurance company) may then step in to compensate the project owner or arrange for the project to be completed by another contractor.
This type of performance bond insurance is commonly required in construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure projects in Singapore, especially when bidding for government or high-value contracts. It gives project owners confidence that the contractor is financially accountable and that the project won’t be left unfinished or delayed without consequences.
