## Overview

Bondaval is a trade credit insurance and surety technology platform for enterprise credit managers. Operating as a managing general agent (MGA), the company combines proprietary software with A-rated insurer capacity to provide non-cancellable credit protection across more than 30 countries. It serves credit teams in high-exposure sectors including energy, commodities trading, food wholesale, and fuel distribution.

The BondavalOS platform covers the full lifecycle of credit protection -- issuing, amending, renewing, and claiming on trade credit insurance policies and non-payment guarantees in real time. Core capabilities include live accounts receivable data ingestion, dynamic buyer risk monitoring, automatic breach flagging, and multi-user approval workflows. The platform connects to corporate ERP and accounts receivable systems, reducing administrative overhead for credit operations teams.

Founded in 2020 and headquartered in London, Bondaval has raised USD 42.7M across five rounds, with a Series B led by Dawn Capital in 2024. Customers include BP and Highland Fuels. The company holds direct FCA authorization and operates a reinsurance vehicle (Bondaval Re) to support global capital scaling. Insurance capacity is backed by Swiss Re Corporate Solutions (S&P AA-) and Great American International Insurance (S&P A+).
