Amwal organizes seminar on Financial Planning for PEF

PEF is the largest body of professional engineers working in Qatar with more than 200 engineers as members.

Dr. Shaukat Chandna, Director, Future Financial Planning, spoke on the necessity of creating a comprehensive protection plan that is flexible and meets the ever-changing needs of the whole family. Dr. Chandna was joined on stage by Mr. Jim Quinn, Regional Sales Director, of Forsyth Partners, an international financial services company, who are Amwal's strategic partners in the region.

"As Qatar's first fully licensed financial services company, Amwal has always strived to offer its valuable clients a wealth of options backed by a multitude of solutions presented by a team of qualified financial sales consultants," stated Dr. Chandna.

"Growing concern about the economy and future may well have increased the number of people worrying about their personal incomes and savings. It is our role as a leading financial house in Qatar to create awareness and to help in drawing a "Financial Roadmap" for our clients through a comprehensive financial plan to achieve the great goals of life," he added

Dr. Shaukat also stressed that A financial plan is simply a guide to help determine where you are financially, where you want to be, and how to get there. "A good financial plan can help overcome the twists and turns of the market because the investment strategy is based on the client situation and goals, not the market recent status".
