BASICS OF BONDING: We are going to explore the basics of the bonding process from a contractor needing a Bid or Performance Bond for the first time to the contractor that is ready to graduate into a regular bond program. We will include a review of the various fast bond programs out on the market, their rates and credit requirements. Our panel will also discuss the various information and financial requirements of a regular bond program and the key traits the bond company is looking in the contractors they bond.  The Panel will be Seth Leonard – RLI Surety (Bond Underwriter); Joe Tucker – Tucker & Company CPA’s (Accountant) and Tracy Watkins – Arvest Bank (Banker).  Mark Gambon will serve as moderator. 

Sponsored by Conco Companies.
