Nielson, Hoover & Company Announces Acquisition of Leading Online Surety Bond Agency

Miami, FL (PRWEB) August 01, 2014

Nielson, Hoover & Company, Inc., America's number one provider of surety bonds, announced today that it has acquired the assets of Focus on Surety, LLC (FOS) dba Suretegrity®, the only bond agency in the country with the technology to deliver all Surety Bond offerings instantly online. This new operation will now be Nielson, Hoover & Company, Inc. dba Suretegrity. The acquisition of Suretegrity helps strengthen NHC's leading position in the industry and gives them an even greater competitive edge with this powerful combination.

The Suretegrity online bonding process enables clients to easily purchase surety bonds online through a process that takes only minutes rather than what can traditionally take days. "This new distribution model for surety bonds make it easy, fast and efficient," said David Hoover, President of Nielson, Hoover & Company, Inc. "NHC is extremely excited to acquire the Suretegrity online retail commercial surety bond model that was created by FOS," Hoover continued.

While Nielson, Hoover & Company, Inc is well-known for their contract surety operations, they have also had a strong focus on commercial surety since their inception and maintain a significant market share in the commercial surety industry. Their product offerings range from small transactional obligations to commercial account business to large financial guarantees. To best service their commercial transactional business, they have maintained a separate commercial surety operation in their Orlando, Florida location where their sole focus is transactional commercial surety. This office will also be the new headquarters for their Suretegrity operation.

FOS, former owners of Suretegrity, will now focus on their core product offerings, e-SURETY™, a web-based automation system for surety carriers, while NHC will take the FOS business model that was created and add their market structure, experience, product knowledge, customer service focus, and the financial commitment of an industry leader. With NHC's acquisition of Suretegrity, their emphasis on customer service will be key. All of FOS's participants can anticipate receiving improved service and support that all NHC customers have come to expect. "It is this outstanding level of commitment that NHC provides that has helped make our company the nations' leader," Hoover said.

With this change, Suretegrity clients will be able to enjoy many benefits including over 50 surety markets; improved underwriting support; additional bond types to choose from; best terms in the marketplace; more options for hard to place bonds; the ability to place large and small Performance and Payment bonds.

NHC's sole focus is bonds and this new opportunity will provide a model that assists their partners with this unique product. Suretegrity does not expect any systems related down time during this transition.
