Establishing Value of Surety Bond Agency

[shaedzs]

Anybody have an idea on how to value a surety bond only agency? P&C insurance agencies seem to have a value that fluctuates between 1.5 and 3x revenue or various multiples of EBITA. Of course value depends on the characteristics of the agency i.e. preferred vs. non standard, size of book, new agency vs. seasoned agency, personal vs. commercial accounts etc. What about a surety bond only agency? Anybody have a framework for establishing value?

From your Web site you sell everything. I am thinking yoru are trying to buy a bond agency. It's a very nitch market.

Not sure on the value of that type of business. I would ask agencyequity he is a member on this site or look at his site for help.
