Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 244 / Thursday, December 23, 2021 / Notices amount or IMARA to be used for determining whether Treasury must recoup any payments it makes under the Program. Under the Act, if total annual payments by all participating insurers are below the IMARA, then Treasury must recoup all amounts expended by it up to the IMARA threshold. If total annual payments by all participating insurers are above the IMARA, then Treasury has the discretionary authority but not the obligation to recoup all of the expended amounts that are above the IMARA threshold.4
TRIA provides for a schedule of defined IMARA values from calendar year 2015 through calendar year 2019.5
For calendar year 2020 and beyond,
TRIA states that the IMARA shall be revised to be the amount equal to the annual average of the sum of insurer deductibles for all insurers participating in the Program for the prior 3 calendar years, as such sum is determined pursuant to final rules issued by the Secretary.6
On November 15, 2019, Treasury issued a final rule for calculation of the IMARA.7 This rule, which is codified at 31 CFR 50.4m2, provides that the IMARA will be calculated by averaging the annual industry aggregate deductibles over the prior three calendar years, based upon the direct earned premiums DEP reported to Treasury by insurers in Treasurys
73101
annual data calls. Insurer deductibles under the Program are based upon the DEP of individual insurers reported to Treasury in the prior year e.g., 2020
DEP for 2021 calendar year.
Accordingly, for purposes of determining the IMARA for calendar 2022, Treasury has averaged the aggregate insurer deductibles for calendar years 2021, 2020, and 2019 as reported to Treasury in each of these years, which are based on the reported DEP for calendar years 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively.
For purposes of the 2022 IMARA
calculation, those figures are as follows:

Treasury has used these reported premiums to calculate the IMARA for calendar year 2022. The average annual DEP figure for the combined period of 2018, 2019, and 2020 is $213,451,027,265 $205,260,038,430 +
$216,086,253,473 + $219,006,789,891/3
= $213,451,027,265. The average aggregate deductible for the prior three years is 20 percent of $213,451,027,265, which equals $42,690,205,453.9
Accordingly, the IMARA for purposes of calendar year 2022 is $42,690,205,453.
