MFPC celebrates licensed financial planners, advisers in graduation ceremony

KUALA LUMPUR, April 11 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Financial Planning Council’s (MFPC) eighth biennial graduation ceremony celebrated over 500 graduating students with the Registered Financial Planner (RFP) and Shariah Registered Financial Planner designations.
MFPC has, in recent years, built the momentum of the Shariah RFP designation to meet the needs of the Malaysian populace.

This year, the ceremony focused on the importance of transforming the lives of individuals by ensuring the adoption of financial planning approaches.
Representing the Malaysian Government at the ceremony was Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Fuziah Salleh.
“I would like to remind you that professionals like you are critically needed for the too many Malaysians who face financial distress.
“More and more Malaysian consumers are getting into serious financial problems due to poor financial knowledge, wrong attitudes and poor financial habits leading to irresponsible financial behaviour,” she noted.
Meanwhile, MFPC president, Michael Kok Fook On said: “MFPC’s development of the Registered Shariah Financial Planner has certainly been a move in the right direction. And I am encouraged to see Muslims, as well as non-Muslims, graduating today with this designation. This augurs well for Malaysia’s thrust to be an Islamic Finance hub.”
The graduation ceremony also saw the announcement of four outstanding student awards, and the conferment of fellow members for their outstanding contribution to the development of MFPC.
