Are you looking to operate as a collection agency in Arizona? If so, you will need an Arizona Collection Agency Bond. This article provides a comprehensive guide on the bond and how Cornerstone Surety Bonds can simplify the process for you.
Understanding the Arizona Collection Agency Bond
The Arizona Collection Agency Bond is a mandatory requirement set by the Arizona Department of Financial Institutions (AZDFI) for all collection agencies operating within the state. The bond serves as a financial assurance to the AZDFI that collection agencies will fulfill their obligations to their clients promptly and in accordance with the statutes.
Even though the license is applied for online through NMLS, the bond is still a paper bond, not an electronic bond. The state has their own bond form that they require for collection agencies, mortgage brokers, money transmitters, among others.
