  • The Need for a Long-Term Federal Backstop in the Terrorism Insurance Market, 2 Brook

Reiter Follow this and additional works at: https://brooklynworks.brooklaw.edu/bjcfcl Recommended Citation Laura M. Reiter, The Need for a Long-Term Federal Backstop In the Terrorism Insurance Market, 2 Brook. J. Corp. Fin. & Com. L. (2007).

It has been accepted for inclusion in Brooklyn Journal of Corporate, Financial & Commercial Law by an authorized editor of BrooklynWorks. THE NEED FOR A LONG-TERM FEDERAL BACKSTOP IN THE TERRORISM INSURANCE MARKET* INTRODUCTION April 31, 2008 arrives as a clear, beautiful day across the U.S. Suddenly, Americans’ lives forever change as the U.S. is confronted by its second coordinated terrorist attack.1 Terrorists detonate multiple bombs on the New York City subway system, reminiscent of the Madrid and London subway bombings, and also discharge multiple bombs in Downtown and Midtown skyscrapers, all of which collapse. In San Francisco, terrorists blow up the largest buildings, including the Transamerica Tower, Bank of America and First Interstate Center. Americans and the rest of the world watch helplessly as the terrorists execute the worst terrorist attack America has ever faced.2 Unquestionably, such an attack would devastate America, not only in terms of lives lost, but also financially. Though there are no official estimates as to how much damage would result, considering the number of buildings affected, the resulting losses would dwarf those from September 11th, which amounted to an estimated $32.4 billion in insured losses.3 Assuming that insurance companies still cover terrorism in their policies, such an attack could cause insured losses in the hundreds of billions of dollars.

  • Spokane Area History Walk Compiled and Written by Librarian Molly Moore, with the Assistance of Librarian Corinne Wilson
    Spokane Area History Walk Compiled and written by Librarian Molly Moore, with the assistance of Librarian Corinne Wilson In honor of National Celebrate Diversity Month, this History Walk celebrates Spokane’s diversity and includes sites and statues to remember, honor, and inform us about some of the lesser known but important members of our community. Take a moment to reflect, through stories and facts about some of the women, Native Americans, African Americans, and Asian Americans who helped make the Spokane area what it is today and what life was like for them as they put down roots and propelled Spokane from being a small settlement to the thriving region it is today. The topics covered in this walk are not a definitive or comprehensive guide. Some monuments or statues have not been included, mostly due to repetitiveness, lack of walkability, or space and time constraints. To see the full collection of history pins and to add to the collection, visit www.scld.org/spokane-area-history-walk. This walk is approximately 4.5 miles long. Be sure to bring some water and wear comfortable shoes. If you are worried about getting lost, you can bring a compass to check cardinal directions or use one on your phone. Please do not attempt this walk if there is inclement weather or after dark. STOP 1: Yin and Yang symbol over train trestle Location: At the corner of S Washington St and W 1st Ave, look south toward Pacific Ave and the train overpass. This symbol is easy to miss unless you are looking for it—embedded in the middle of the overpass crossing Washington Street.
