*Abstract:*                     Sections 103(a) and 104 of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (Pub.

In 31 CFR part 50, subpart F (Sec. 50.50-50.55) Treasury established requirements and procedures for insurers that file claims for payment of the Federal share of compensation for insured losses resulting from a certified act of Terrorism under the Act. Section 50.60 allows Treasury access to records of an insurer pertinent to the amounts paid as the Federal share of compensation for insured losses in order to conduct investigations, confirmations and audits. Section 50.61 requires insurers to retain all records as are necessary to fully disclose all material matters pertaining to insured losses. This collection of information is the record keeping requirement in Sec. 50.61.
