PRESS RELEASE

Singapore, 12 December 2025 — The Financial Planning Association of Singapore (FPAS) and GoalsMapper today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on initiatives that strengthen the financial advisory profession, elevate industry standards, and empower financial planners with deeper competencies.

This partnership underscores a shared commitment to strengthening the financial advisory profession, expanding learning opportunities, and aligning industry practices with evolving consumer needs. Through this collaboration, FPAS members will have access to training and learning opportunities that support their growth as financial advisors and help them deliver stronger advisory outcomes for their clients.

Central to the MOU is GoalsMapper’s GM Mortgage solution and the joint effort to enhance mortgage education within the advisory community. With property financing representing one of the most substantial financial commitments for many consumers, empowering advisors with a deeper understanding of this domain is essential for ensuring competent, transparent, and client-centric advice.

Dr. Ben Fok, President of FPAS, said: “Our focus has always been on the advancement of the financial planning profession. Collaborations like this enable us to introduce more pathways for skills development, raise advisory standards, and better support the evolving needs of our members. We are pleased to partner with GoalsMapper as we continue building a strong, future-ready financial advisory ecosystem.” 

Dato’ Wayne Chen, CEO of GoalsMapper, said: “At GoalsMapper, we are committed to redefining financial planning and to empower everyone to make better financial decisions. Partnering with leading associations such as FPAS allows us to contribute to the professional growth of the advisory community and support the development of higher industry standards. We look forward to creating meaningful learning experiences and platforms that help practitioners deliver advice with clarity, confidence, and care.”

Mr. Galen Woo, CEO of FPAS, said: “This partnership with GoalsMapper reinforces FPAS’s mission to elevate the capabilities of financial advisors in Singapore. By expanding learning opportunities and working with trusted industry partners, we continue to strengthen the foundation of professionalism and service excellence within our community.” 

The MOU signing ceremony took place on 12 December 2025, marking the beginning of a collaborative effort to enrich industry capability, enhance advisory quality, and deliver greater value to practitioners and the public.
