Europe Surety Market Size and Forecast (2021 - 2031), Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis Report Coverage: By Bond Type (Contract Surety Bond and Commercial Surety Bond), End Users (Individuals and Enterprises), and Country
The Europe surety market size is projected to reach US$ 6.53 billion by 2031 from US$ 4.13 billion in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.9% in 2023–2031.
A surety bond is a legally mandatory agreement that ensures the fulfillment of obligations or, in case of non-compliance, provides compensation to cover the unmet obligations. This involves three parties: the principal (who purchases the bond and commits to fulfilling an obligation), the surety (the company issuing the bond), and the obligee (the entity requiring the bond). Surety bonds are a financial guarantee for the completion of specific obligations, holding bondholders accountable for their professional or personal commitments. They protect the government, businesses, and individuals from financial loss by ensuring compliance, payment, or performance of an act. The primary principle of a surety bond is to ensure the completion of contracts in the event of contractor default. They can also guarantee the completion of government contracts, cover losses resulting from legal cases, or safeguard companies from employee dishonesty.
A recent trend in the European market is the growing cooperation between banks and Surety companies to develop distribution and to offer cover for risks. Such cooperation is anticipated to develop prosperous opportunities for the Europe surety market players. Although banks propel the surety market in the European region, capital regulations are driving them to share some of their uncertainties with surety companies. This enables banks to mitigate their risks and achieve more cost-effective portfolio management. Moreover, surety players facilitate banks to enhance their customer relationships and expand their market share or enter new, niche markets. Also, cooperation with banks enables surety players to access clients and markets that were otherwise not reachable to them. Alternatively, the key challenge is expected from developing these new market distributions. Unlike banks being capacity providers, surety companies are bond underwriters. This could bring out a challenge for surety providers in gaining new customers, who are more inclined towards capacity providers. Although surety providers offer an equivalent portfolio, there is always a risk of adverse selection.
Another major challenge prevailing in the European surety market is the entrance of new players as well as the geographical expansion of existing players, resulting in intensifying competition. Simultaneously, the customers' needs are constantly growing. Thus, surety providers who are capable of fulfilling these evolving customers' needs are expected to sustain and compete efficiently in the Europe surety market.
