First Actuarial has joined Grid, the industry body for group risk, to grow its group protection business.
First Actuarial will be able to launch a range of group protection services and have access to industry best practices. It intends to take advantage of the experience of Grid and its members to facilitate company growth based on best practices by broadening its services to employers, which now include life assurance, critical illness, and group income protection.
First Actuarial Group protection consultant Suzie Nedza says: “Joining Grid was an important priority for our group protection team. We’re all impressed with the collective knowledge and experience that Grid offers. Our membership is set to play an invaluable role in keeping us on top of industry developments and will feed into our business development initiatives. As our group protection team grows, we will look to Grid’s training academy to hone our professional skills and expertise.”
Grid chair Colin Fitzgerald says: “First Actuarial is a great example of how members of Grid can offer mutual benefit and support for each other’s businesses. It is our combined knowledge that makes Grid such a strong resource. We are delighted to welcome First Actuarial to further bolster the organisation.”
