KUALA LUMPUR: Financial planning and retirement advisory firm Whitman Holdings Bhd debuted on the LEAP Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Bhd today, with the company saying it intends to play a constructive role in addressing Malaysia’s structural retirement planning gap.
Whitman managing director and founder Yap Ming Hui said one of the structural challenges in retirement preparation today is fragmentation. "Financial decisions are often made, and products are bought, in isolation, rather than as part of a coordinated long-term income strategy. As longevity increases, this approach becomes increasingly unsustainable,” he said in a statement.
