THE GUARANTEE SOCIETY
No, 19 BIRCHIN LANE, CORNHILL, LONDON, E.G.
Empowered by Special Act of Parliament, 5 Victoria— Session 18Ifi.
Suretisbip undertaken for the Fidelity of Persons in Situations
of Trust, on the yearly payment of a small sum at a
stipulated rate per centum.
CAPITAL £100,000 FULLY PAID UP AND INVESTED.
This Society was the first Public Company established in
Great Britain to obviate the inconvenience and defects
of Suretiship by Private Bondsmen, its Security
being adopted by
HER MAJESTY'S GOVERNMENT,
BY
The Bank of England, the Bank of Ireland,
The Council of the Duchy of Cornwall,
The Secretary of State in Council for India,
The Court of Chancery, the Local Government Board,
The Corporation of the City of London,
The Principal Bankers, Railway Companies, Public Companies, and
Commercial Firms in the United Kingdom.
PERSONS of the highest character and qualifications
frequently decline valuable appointments, either from an unwilling-
ness to place themselves and their friends under so serious an obligation, or
the great difficulty of obtaining satisfactory Sureties ; but the Institution of
this Society removes these difficulties.
The GUARANTEE SOCIETY undertakes, for a small yearly premium, to
make good to the employer any loss by the fraud or dishonesty of the per-
son employed, according to the amount specified in the bond, and therefore
obviates the necessity for Private Sureties, as well as the evils arising there-
from, which often prove as prejudicial to the real interests of the employer as
to the person finding the guarantee of Private Friends.
Employers, by the existence of the Society, are assured of the continued
solvency of the Surety for the person employed, and the security thus be-
comes a permanent one.
Friends and Relatives are relieved of the fear of those pecuniary losses to
which persons are exposed who become responsible for the acts of others.
All necessary information can be had of the Secretary and Agents.
Rates according to the nature of the Employment on the Amount of the Security
required.
Security granted on "behalf of Receivers and Official Liquidators,
under the Court of Chancery, on advantageous terms.
Secretary— AUGUSTUS MUZIO.
