Since breaking above US$2,000 in February 2024, gold prices have surged to above US$5,000 by early 2026, driven by sustained central-bank accumulation, heightened geopolitical uncertainty, and renewed discussion around a potential revaluation of U.S. gold reserves, among other things.

Yet for many investors, critical questions remain: Have I already missed the move? Is gold now experiencing a late-cycle, speculative surge - or are we still in the early stages of a multi-year repricing driven by deeper structural forces?

This seminar examines the drivers behind gold’s recent performance, and explores whether the present rally may represent the early phase of a longer-term shift in the global monetary and financial system.

The official Retirement Age will be raised from 63 to 64 starting July 1, 2026! Concurrently, the Re-employment Age will also rise from 68 to 69.

This is part of the Government's plan to help senior workers who want to continue working and improve their retirement adequacy as we live longer lives. The ultimate goal is to reach a Retirement Age of 65 and Re-employment Age of 70 by 2030.

What does this mean for you?

Longer Statutory Protection: Workers who are eligible and wish to work longer will have statutory protection against age-related dismissal until age 64.

More Earning Years: The option to continue earning income until 69 (via re-employment) provides a crucial boost to your CPF savings and overall financial security.

Time to Adapt: The move is announced early to give both workers and companies ample time to prepare, upskill, and adjust their manpower plans.

Whether you're planning your exit or looking to stay active, this change impacts everyone's long-term financial strategy.
