    Background: The ACRSM provides advice and recommendations to the 
Federal Insurance Office (FIO) with respect to (1) the creation and 
development of non-governmental, private market risk-sharing mechanisms 
for protection against losses arising from acts of terrorism, and (2) 
FIO's administration of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program (TRIP).
    Tentative Agenda/Topics for Discussion: This will be the first 
ACRSM meeting of 2024. In this meeting, the ACRSM will address, 
consistent with its charter's mandate, topics related to the role of 
nongovernmental mechanisms in supporting the terrorism risk insurance 
market. Specifically, the ACRSM will hear presentations addressing (1) 
FIO's work related to consideration of whether a potential federal 
insurance response to catastrophic cyber loss to U.S. critical 
infrastructure is warranted, and its implications for TRIP; (2) a panel 
discussion of major cyber modeling firms on the current state of cyber 
modeling, including the modeling of catastrophic events and the 
potential impact of such events upon TRIP; and (3) a presentation from 
an insurance rating agency on how it evaluates cyber insurance risk in 
its considerations, and how the existence of programs such as TRIP 
factor into that evaluation. The Committee will then discuss suggested 
areas for the ACRSM's focus moving forward relating to private market 
risk sharing against losses arising from acts of terrorism and the 
administration of TRIP.

Steven E. Seitz,
Director, Federal Insurance Office.
