K.R. Raju
ChFC, CFP CERT TM
Founder & Advisory Board, Blueprint Planning
K.R. Raju is one of the veterans in the Financial Planning industry being one of the earliest recipients of the Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) qualification offered by American College. Besides that, Raju also carries the qualification of a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and is also a life member of the prestigious Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) award. While being in the industry for over 40 years, Raju has developed a close relationship with some of the leading practitioners in Australia and from their practice models, he realizes that there will be a revolutionary change taking place in the financial services industry in the whole of ASEAN, demand for competent advice will be the future driven by technology.
With this mindset, Raju has further enhanced the Australian practice model and integrated it within the practice of Blueprint Planning. With his leadership, commitment and passion, Blueprint Planning has become one of the leading financial planning companies in Malaysia in providing quality comprehensive financial solutions. BPP with his advice and guidance has produced numerous Malaysian Financial planning award (MYFPA) award winners in the country. His practise model of PLAN, ADVICE & PRODUCT (PAP) has resulted in Blueprint Planning being one of the top financial planning brand in the country. He has now introduced a Practise management System PMS, an ultimate tool for financial planning practitioners.
As immediate past president of the Malaysian Financial Planners & Advisers Association, Raju regularly contributes to the industry in practice management workshops and articles. One of the key areas he emphasizes on is who should be eligible to give out financial advice and distribute financial products to others. Too often people without the qualifications, skills, competence, and technical know-hows are calling themselves financial planners. This is not only harmful to clients, but it tarnishes the image of licensed financial planners and stunts the growth of the financial planning industry due to mistrust from the public.
With that in mind, he authored one of the earliest financial planning book “Winning Strategies in Financial Planning” to educate the public on financial planning practices. He strongly propagates that buying financial products without a plan is like taking medication without examining oneself of his/her medical condition.
