Title: Terrorism Risk Insurance Program—Cap on Annual Liability.

Abstract: The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended (TRIA), established the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program (TRIP), which the Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Secretary) administers, with the assistance of the Federal Insurance Office. Section 103(e) of TRIA sets a limit on the annual liability for insured losses at $100 billion. This section requires the Secretary to notify Congress not later than 15 days after an act of terrorism as to whether aggregate insured losses are estimated to exceed the cap. TRIA also requires the Secretary to determine the pro rata share of insured losses under the program when insured losses exceed the cap, and to issue regulations for carrying this out. In order to meet these requirements, Treasury may need to obtain loss information from involved insurers.

Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.

Estimated Average Annual Burden per Response: 5 hours.

Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,000.
