The financial planning industry in Malaysia comprises a wide spectrum of financial professionals from the unit trust, insurance, accounting, banking, investments and securities industries.
Recent development evidences that the presence of some of these professionals in the financial planning industry constitutes a natural progression from their line of work. In the insurance industry particularly, the presence of financial planners has clearly progressed in keeping with the insurance product lines and the customers¡¯ needs.
Hence, whilst financial planning is a widely used term in the ¡°process¡± of setting financial goals in areas like retirement planning, home ownership, insurance and wealth accumulation, it is also being applied in many industries such as life insurance, banking, unit trust and stockbroking. |
