In an Oct. 2 conference call with hundreds of participants, Mr. Mayewski called the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11 "unprecedented" in scope and complexity. . . . The direct and indirect impact of this event may not be fully understood for several years," he said. "The insurance industry will be able to meet its commitments," said Mr. Mayewski, noting that A.M. Best‘s most recent estimate of losses stemming from the attacks remains in excess of $30 billion.
