Event Details
"A survey by HSBC Insurance last year reported that 42% of Singaporeans do not have a financial plan for their retirement. The old adage that if you fail to plan then you are planning to fail applies strongly to retirement planning. Why are people not making plans? In the HSBC survey, 14% feel it is not useful to have one, 23% have no idea how to form one and the rest feel they do not have sufficient income to make a plan. It is interesting that about a third of those without financial plans have had some dealings with a financial adviser, which suggests that either the adviser had not conveyed the appropriate advice or he has chosen not to take it." - Speech by Lee Chuan Teck, Assistant Managing Director, Monetary Authority of Singapore at Singapore Management University ‘Market for Financial Advice’ Symposium on 6 July 2012.
