A Financial Support Agreement -- Guaranty of Obligation is a type of agreement that is used when a party (the "guarantor") guarantees to another party (the "creditor") the payment of a debt or other obligation by a third party (the "principal obliged"). The guarantor agrees to pay the creditor the amount of the debt or other obligation if the principal obliged fails to do so. There are two main types of Financial Support Agreement -- Guaranty of Obligation: surety guaranty and indemnity guaranty. A surety guaranty is a guarantee in which the guarantor agrees to pay the creditor if the principal obliged fails to do so. An indemnity guaranty is a guarantee in which the guarantor agrees to reimburse the creditor for any losses or damages incurred as a result of the principal obliged’s failure to pay the debt or other obligation.
