Our Mission

Obligations met through appropriate solutions.

To help clients meet important obligations through appropriate surety and insurance solutions, clear guidance, disciplined placement and relationships built for the long term.

Success is measured by whether clients and professional partners trust AGS Surety to understand the requirement, communicate accurately, identify viable options and deliver a level of service that meets or exceeds expectations.

Who We Are

Direct support and wholesale placement.

AGS Surety provides bonding support to businesses and individuals directly and works with insurance agents and brokers on a wholesale basis. The company's experience spans contract surety, commercial bonds, specialized risks and commercial insurance needs across a broad range of industries and project types.

Rather than treating every request as a commodity transaction, AGS evaluates the underlying obligation, the applicant's qualifications, the bond form, the obligee's requirements and the available market. This approach allows AGS Surety to address straightforward requests efficiently while giving complex submissions the attention they require.
