Credit Counselling Singapore (CCS) was established in 2004, from an idea mooted by the State Courts.

We are in the sector of lending a helping hand to the under- and lesser-served to restore their financial wellness and build financial capability, so that they can become financially more resilient.

On top of offering financial literacy talks and workshops, we plug gaps to provide financial counselling and financial coaching that are important but less available at low or no cost.

The individuals and families we serve include:

1. Debt-distressed individuals and business owners who wish to honour their debt obligations.

2. Bankrupts and their families who wish to receive support to improve their psycho-social wellbeing, employability, and financial literacy.

3. Low-income families / financial assistance recipients to build financial capabilities by teaching them financial literacy coupled with financial coaching.

4. Young seniors from the heartland who wish to get better prepared financially for their retirement.

5. Members of the public who wishes to learn about the fundamentals of personal finance.

Financial Counselling
