Used to sit across from bond underwriters who wrote these all day long for customers of the insurance company we worked for. See the link for an explanation. These will typically cover completion plus payments due to subcontractors and materials suppliers.

Note from asker:
| I thought that at first, Charles, but there's a snag. I can't disclose the full context but the contract must include: "bestemmelser om byggherregaranti og gjennomføringsgaranti fra totalentreprenør". I already used "performance bond" for "gjennomføringsgaranti". |
