Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) of 2002

Federal legislation enacted in 2002 to guarantee the availability of insurance coverage against acts of international terrorism. Under the Act, commercial insurers are required to offer insurance coverage against such terrorist incidents and are reimbursed by the federal government for paid claims subject to deductible and retention amounts. This legislation was modified and extended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act (TRIEA) in 2005.

Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (TRIPRA 2007)

Passed in December 2007, TRIPRA reauthorized through 2014 the federal terrorism insurance backstop originally established under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) of 2002 and extended under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2005, with some changes. The most notable change was the removal of the references to foreign persons or entities, thereby requiring insurers to make coverage available for both foreign and domestic forms of terrorism.
