“My economics degree helps me in ways nearly every day”, Ryan stated in a recent email. “From analytical and critical thinking, to more macro views of our industry, a sound understanding of economics serves as a strong foundation for what I do as a surety professional. We provide surety credit for contractors, essentially providing a guaranty for the work they perform in the public arena. While the product itself has much to do with underwriting of personal and business creditworthiness, having a deep understanding of economics helps provide a different perspective I’d otherwise not have.” (Last Updated 8/11/16)
