The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended (TRIA), requires participating insurers to make insurance available for losses resulting from acts of terrorism, and provides a federal government backstop for the insurers’ resulting financial exposure. TRIA established, in the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program (TRIP), which is administered by the Secretary of the Treasury (Secretary), with the assistance of the Federal Insurance Office (FIO). The Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (Reauthorization Act), which extended and amended certain provisions of TRIP, requires the Secretary to submit a report to Congress concerning, among other things, the overall effectiveness of TRIP. To assist the Secretary in formulating the report, FIO is seeking comment on the statutory factors that the report must analyze and other related matters.
