Marsh’s Global Terrorism Risk Insurance Report 2026 says terrorism threats are shifting from hierarchical, property-focused attacks to dispersed networks using tactics such as cyberattacks, political violence, and NBCR threats. The report cites incidents including a 2025 truck ramming in New Orleans and an armed assault at Bondi Beach in Australia as examples of low-sophistication attacks with high impact. It says the terrorism insurance market remains stable, with per-risk capacity of $1-4 billion depending on location and insurer aggregation. The report estimates total capital for the combined US insurance and reinsurance market across all perils, including terrorism, at about $1.2 trillion in 2025. It highlights the US Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act as a federal backstop that is set to expire at the end of 2027.
