The UAE’s General Pension and Social Security Authority (GPSSA) and the Abu Dhabi Global Market Academy (ADGMA) have recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that aims to enhance financial literacy among insured Emiratis and promote proactive financial planning for a secure and sustainable lifestyle.

For its part, ADGMA will provide financial planning advice to GPSSA’s stakeholders, including achieving optimal investment and asset-revenue opportunities in line with the authority’s proactive financial planning regulations.

The agreement supports the UAE’s efforts to enhance financial awareness amongst Emiratis in federal, government and private sector entities. In addition, it emphasizes the importance of money management, proactive planning and investment benefits which support the UAE government’s mission to reach global competitiveness in all sectors.

“It is vital that we continue to equip our human capital with the necessary skills and knowledge needed, especially with the heightened roles of communication and information exchanged in the world these days,” stated Faras Al Ramahi, GPSSA’s director general.
