The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) is a United States federal law signed into law by President George W. Bush on November 26, 2002. The Act created a federal "backstop" for insurance claims related to acts of terrorism. The Act is intended as a temporary measure to allow time for the insurance industry to develop their own solutions and products to insure against acts of terrorism. The Act was set to expire December 31, 2005, but was extended for another two years in legislation in December 2005, making the new expiry date December 31, 2007. - Source: Wikipedia
