Pros and Cons
Pros
- Addresses the single largest personal risk in SBA-financed acquisitions
- Underwrites the loan types searchers actually use
- A young product category, but this is exactly the buyer it exists for
Cons
- Coverage is partial and conditional: read the default definitions and exclusions with counsel
- Premiums add a real recurring cost to a leveraged deal's budget
- A new category with a short claims history; carrier quality and terms are the diligence
What Searchers Say
Personal guarantee insurance is new to the US market and coverage of it is young; treat the category as promising and unproven in equal measure, and evaluate the specific carrier and policy language rather than the concept.
