Consequences of Substantially Restructuring TRIA n Increases in required insurer retentions/deductibles do not “create” new capacity n New capacity has entered primarily because: w TRIA remains in place w No major successful attack has occurred since 9/11 w Modest improvement in modeling/understanding terror risk n Many smaller/medium-sized insurers are likely already at or near their exposure limits, so increasing required retentions will not incentivize them to write more coverage w A.M.
