Our Difference

We assist where other providers simply can't

When a bank, insurer or conventional broker has said no — on wording, on the repayment schedule, or on the contract itself — we're often still able to say yes. We're based in the UK, but our reach is genuinely global, and it includes guarantor partnerships you won't find anywhere else. That depth of access gives us the flexibility to structure terms around your contract, rather than turn you away from it.

Rather talk it through first?

Advance Payment Bond Wording We Place

On Demand Advance Payment Bonds

Pays out as soon as a valid request is made, without needing to prove anything went wrong first. Often used on international and publicly funded contracts.

Conditional Advance Payment Bonds

Pays out only once it's actually shown the advance hasn't been repaid as agreed — often paired with a reducing bond value as the advance is paid back over the course of the project.

All Types Of Bond Wording

Every Advance Payment Bond Wording We Can Structure

  • On Demand — pays out on request, with nothing needing to be proven first
  • Conditional — only pays out once it's shown the advance wasn't repaid as agreed
  • Reducing Balance — the guaranteed amount steps down automatically as the advance is repaid
  • Adjudication-Linked — tied to the outcome of a formal dispute process, rather than a simple request
  • NEC4 / JCT Standard Wordings — matched clause for clause to your specific contract form
  • Bespoke Wording — anything project-specific, negotiated directly with the guarantor

Advance Payment Bond FAQs

What is an advance payment bond under NEC4 or JCT?

An advance payment bond guarantees repayment of a mobilisation or advance payment made by the employer to the contractor if the contractor fails to repay it as work proceeds. NEC4 contracts can call for one under the contract data, and JCT publishes its own Advance Payment Bond model form — our wording is drafted to match whichever applies.

What's the difference between an on demand and a conditional advance payment bond?

An on demand bond is payable on the beneficiary's first written demand, with no need to prove default. A conditional bond — the more traditional approach in the UK market — is only payable once default in repayment has actually been established against the contractor.

Does the bond value reduce as the advance is repaid?

It can. Many advance payment bonds are written on a reducing, or amortising, balance so the guaranteed amount steps down automatically as the advance is repaid through interim valuations — we can structure the wording either way depending on what your contract requires.

Can Solidum Global place an advance payment bond when my usual provider has declined?

Often, yes. We're UK based, but our guarantor network reaches almost every market worldwide, including partnerships that are exclusive to us. So a decline elsewhere doesn't necessarily mean the bond can't be placed.
