AAIS Product Advisory - June 6, 2003

Dwelling Properties and Personal & Premises Liability Certified Terrorism Materials Cannot Be Implemented in New Jersey

The New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance has disapproved the filing that included endorsement FL 0670, Certified Terrorism Loss, and its accompanying manual supplements. The filing was submitted on a 'file and use' basis as permitted under the terms of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (TRIA). However, given the department's disapproval, of which AAIS has just been made aware, we are obligated to advise companies to cease using the endorsement and supplements until further notice.

AAIS believes that the terms of TRIA and the guidelines distributed by the Department of the Treasury support the filing of these materials. We are continuing our communications with the department, and we are hopeful that the issue will be resolved in the near future. If the department does withdraw its disapproval, announcement of that action will be made by bulletin posted to the public Web site at AAISonline.com and publicized through AAIS' e-mail notification service, Product Advisory.
