Automated Guarantee System (AGS) is an automatic guarantee system available to brokers, agents and direct customers. We simplify the process of underwriting and issuing guarantees by letting the customer manage the process themselves.
- Customer requests guarantees using AGS.
- Customer receives non-binding offer with a price within seconds which can be accepted or rejected
- AGS automatically generates all necessary documents, including the invoice.
- Customer verifies the guarantee without direct involvement from Liberty Mutual.
- At any time, we have people who are available to provide you with any manual assistance if that is preferable or necessary through the AGS process

Tax deduction guarantee
A tax deduction guarantee can be used by most companies as an alternative to locking the tax deduction funds in a fixed account. The guarantee helps to free up liquidity, which gives scope for using the funds for investments, repayment of loans or other company purposes such as working capital. In addition, this gives the opportunity to free up available capacity with their bank connections.
