      Studying towards the post-graduate Certified Financial Planner diploma, together with my years of experience in the investment markets, served as a solid foundation for writing material for financial literacy workshops to educate and empower. I conducted these workshops myself and loved to share what I call "the full circle of financial understanding" - a holistic view of understanding concepts like investments, unit trusts, inflation, estate planning that supports one's financial potential.
