This hot-topic seminar will include a discussion of set-aside requirements under federal contracts and programs that assist set-aside contractors in obtaining surety credit. The presenter will review recent case law that potentially exposes bond producers and sureties to liability under the False Claims Act and to treble damages on account of information available to producers and underwriters.
