Assured Guaranty Corp. provides a full range of credit enhancement products for the municipal bond marketplace, including:

• Primary and secondary market bond insurance policies covering principal and interest
• Surety policies that take the place of cash-funded reserves
• Specialized financial guaranty policies, such as swap sureties guaranteeing an issuer’s obligations under a swap agreement with a broker-dealer

• Insurability of a transaction: We can discuss key credit characteristics by phone and provide general feedback.
• General legal terms and conditions: Based on the sector and credit rating, we can provide guidance regarding key terms and conditions.
• Pricing parameters: We track pricing by sector and rating so we can quickly provide a pricing range during our initial discussions.

If the transaction is insurable, every effort is made to meet the transaction schedule. Legal conditions are discussed in detail upfront – often through the use of term sheets – to ensure that all parties are comfortable with the terms and conditions that will be required by the Assured credit committee. All aspects of the legal process – from formal commitment through closing – are managed by an in-house legal team that includes a dedicated Public Finance attorney and closing coordinator. For a current list of transactions, see the “Downloads” section located at the top of this page.

The firm has established a sizable and growing buyer base that includes many of the largest institutional investors. Broker-dealers focused on retail distribution can take comfort from the excellent results other firms have had distributing Assured-insured bonds to their retail clients.
