Section 103 of the Terrorism Risk
Insurance Act of 2002 (the Act), as amended by the Reauthorization
Act, sets a limit on the annual liability for insured losses at
$100 billion. This section requires the Secretary of the Treasury
to notify Congress not later than 15 days after the date of an act
of terrorism as to whether aggregate insured losses are estimated
to exceed the cap. The Act, as amended, 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. This
would be accomplished by the issuance of a "data call" to ascertain
insurer losses. In the event of the imposition on insurers of a
"pro rata loss percentage", it will be necessary to determine
compliance when processing insurer claims for payment of the
Federal share of compensation. This would be accomplished by
nominal revision to the currently approved Treasury form TRIP 02C,
"Bordereau" or "Schedule C".
