Established in 2009, the Estate Planning Practitioners Limited (EPPL) is the body that champions literacy in Estate and Succession Planning as a professional practice throughout Asia by conducting training, seminars, conferences and exchange of ideas.
To date, it has equipped more than 5000 professionals in Asia with the knowledge of Estate and Succession Planning. The EPPL has appointed Precepts Academy Pte. Ltd. to conduct professional programmes for the advisory industry, particularly for the Associate Estate Planning Practitioner (AEPP®). The AEPP® has already established a strong reputation in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia.
The EPPL also works with various Asian country representatives to heighten awareness of the crucial estate planning component of wealth distribution (in the context of complete wealth planning). Resultingly, it has built a network of professional communities in this field.
To equip professional advisors with applicable knowledge on Estate Planning and Wealth Succession to complement comprehensive financial planning.
To provide for continuous professional growth of professional advisors by facilitating networking sessions and career pathways.
With EPPL as a platform, Estate Planning as a professional practice is being promoted throughout Asia via training, seminars, conferences and exchange of ideas where EPPL is represented. EPPL is also responsible for working with various country representatives to promote the current professional designation – the Associate Estate Planning Practitioner (AEPP®) designation – and other future designations related to the practice of estate planning.
The impetus for the AEPP® qualification was premised on the model in the United Kingdom by Brian McMillan, Director General of The Society of Will Writers. Mr McMillan has been teaching at The College of Will Writing since 1996 and been instrumental in developing professionals in this field.
The Society of Will Writers is a well-respected non-profit self-regulatory organisation which seeks to protect the public and serve the interests of active professionals in the field of will-writing and estate planning practice in the United Kingdom. Today, the Society has the largest database of highly qualified and indemnified will writers and estate planning practitioners (including Financial Advisors).
The Society of Will Writers is a non-profit making self regulatory organisation which seeks to protect the public and serve the interests of those men and women who are active professionals in our field.
The Society of Will Writers was founded in 1994 and has since grown to become not only the largest, but also the leading self-regulatory body governing Will Writers and Estate Planners alike. We have over 1,600 members across the UK, Europe and further afield in places such as Asia and Africa.
The Society has set itself two main tasks:
- To promote to the public at large the real need and sense in having a valid Will;
- To act as a self-regulatory body by vetting practitioners through stringent membership requirements, proficiency standards and ongoing training.
The Society of Will Writers (SWW) was established in 1994 as an independent body representing the professional Will Writer and the interests of the consumer. Today, the Society is the largest trade body within our profession and has members throughout the world, especially where there are high concentrations of UK citizens living and working abroad.
