GRiD, the group risk industry body, is set to offer anew online training service to members.

The new system, which is due to launch on 30 June, will start with an Introduction to Group Risk.

Katharine Moxham, spokesperson for GRiD, said the rade body has seen a “surge” of interest in group risk products.

She said: “Possibly contrary to popular belief, this market doesn’t stand still.

“The industry exists to support businesses and employees in times of need, and that includes this current crisis – and this gives us a very tangible way to show those newer to the industry the very real benefits in practice.”
