WHEATON, Ill., Mar. 15, 2004--Commercial lines professionals in companies, agencies, and brokerages are invited to respond to a survey on terrorism insurance available at www.AAISonline.com, the Web site of the American Association of Insurance Services (AAIS).

The survey asks respondents to estimate how many commercial insureds have opted for coverage under the federal Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) of 2002. It also asks why some insureds forgo coverage under the program, what is the most common way to address losses from "non-certified" (domestic) terrorist acts, and the respondent's opinion regarding the future of TRIA.

The survey is free of charge and collects no identifying information from respondents, other than to ask what type of organization they work for.

AAIS is a national advisory organization that develops standardized policy forms, manual rules, and loss cost rating information used by more than 600 property/casualty carriers nationwide. The information gathered through the terrorism survey will be reviewed as part of AAIS's product development efforts regarding terrorism.

For questions, contact Joseph Harrington, director of corporate communications, at 800/564-AAIS.
