Invitation to be Corporate Member We are pleased to extend our invitation to your esteemed organization to join the Financial Planning Association of Malaysia (FPAM) as a Corporate Member. The FPAM is a non-profit organization whose role is to educate the public on the benefits of financial planning and to promote higher ethical and competency standards among professional financial planners. Corporate members enjoy many benefits among which are the following: Training and Certification Savings FPAM administers the CFP certification program. Employees of Corporate members are charged only RM250 per module reflecting a saving of RM50 from the normal fee of RM300 per module. This works out to a RM300 saving for the complete six modules. To date, many of the leading financial institutions are members of FPAM. These members commit significant numbers of personnel to the CFP Program. With FPAM s recent introduction of the world s first Islamic Financial Planning Program, it is anticipated that the number of certificants in this field will grow. Compliance and Recognition The CFP qualification is recognized by Bank Negara as a prerequisite in the issuance of the Investment Advisor s license. In Malaysia, financial planning licenses are issued by the Securities Commission. The recognition conferred by the Securities Commission ensures that many of the retail financial services activities undertaken by financial institutions are in compliance with the industry s regulations. Nationwide network, global accreditation FPAM s 45 Charter and Corporate members represent a wide cross-section of the financial services industry and include many of the leading banks, unit trust companies, insurance companies, investment banks, trust houses and boutique financial planners.

The association is also part of the international body that promotes the CFP worldwide with affiliates in more than 20 countries and individual membership numbering more than 100,000.
