(23 Apr 2009) Today, Swiss Re launches a new report covering the latest trends in group risk business in the UK. Based on data contributed to Swiss Re by the UK’s leading group risk providers, Group Watch 2009 provides an authoritative snapshot of the level of group risk business in the market. The survey points to a modest rise in the UK group death benefits and income protection market and a more substantial growth in critical illness business in 2008. Uncertainty over regulation continues to be a challenge for the market and, given the economic climate, promoting the value of group risk benefits has never been more important.
