The Fiscal Service is amending its regulations governing surety companies doing business with the United States.  When a federal law requires a person to post a bond through a surety, the person satisfies the requirement if the bond is underwritten by a company that is certified by Treasury to write federal bonds.  Fiscal Service administers the regulations governing the issuance, renewal, and revocation of certificates of authority to surety companies to write or reinsure federal bonds.  Fiscal Service proposes to amend its regulations governing how it values the assets and liabilities of sureties to keep pace with changes in regulation of the surety industry occurring at the state and international levels.
