- Equipment breakdown insurance can cover the repair or replacement of your equipment and tools if they suddenly and accidentally break down on the insured premises.
- Builder's risk insurance can cover the risk of loss or deterioration in buildings under construction (including the value of assets, risk of collapse and theft or vandalism).

What are my options if I need quick access to financing, such as for a job or an equipment purchase?
We offer two financing solutions for these types of one-time expenses:
- If you need $100,000 or less: Accord D Business financing has repayment terms of 1 to 7 years.

What is a letter of guarantee and how do I get one?
A letter of guarantee is a commitment from a financial institution to ensure that your business partner will still get paid in the event that your business is unable to pay them. It might be required if you win a construction bid, for example. The amount and terms are based on the transaction requirements and the money is paid out at the beneficiary's request.
We can provide letters of guarantee upon request. Contact your account manager for more information.
