Washington–Joseph Plumeri, chairman and chief executive officer of the Willis Group insurance brokerage, has urged President Bush to develop a long-term solution for the terrorism problem his industry faces.

Mr. Plumeri's letter is a first salvo in what is expected to be a concentrated industry effort this month to ensure that a presidential panel studying the terrorism insurance market has a lot of industry input in drafting its report.

The American Insurance Association in a new brochure to members listing its advocacy priorities for 2006 said it “will continue working with the policyholder community and government officials to advance workable, long-term solutions for terrorism risk that can extend beyond the end of 2007, when the program expires.”
