A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As we embrace the new year, it may help to remember that the turning of the year doesn’t call for grand plans or perfect routines. Instead, it invites calm, adaptability, and trust in small, consistent steps. The collection of articles gathered here speak about the value of steadiness over speed, flexibility over force, and provides a quiet assurance to just keep going—even without clarity.

Nur (Hedge Fund Executive)

I got to know Syamim through my husband, and we decided to meet him for joint financial planning after getting married. We wanted to align our goals and have a clearer picture of our combined finances. Syamim was super flexible with meeting times, which made the whole process really convenient for us. He also walked us through the numbers and did all the financial calculations, which was really helpful in making sense of everything. Overall, it was a smooth and reassuring experience working with him. I would recommend his services to any couples needing financial clarity

Syafiq (Undergraduate)

My search for a financial advisor (FA) took almost a year. I was finding a financial advisor that was not only meticulous and effective but also down to earth. Syamim was a perfect fit and I never regretted taking up his services ever since then. Syamim knows what is best for his clients and ensures that his client’s expectations are met., Personal finance budget and goal setting was the most beneficial part of the meeting. Syamim analysed and took into consideration all of my finances. Documents were setup for a better visualisation of the plans. This allowed me to have a better understanding of my finances. As a student, there were limitations to the planning, but we managed to come up with a student friendly plan. All of the goals were revisited each year to ensure that I was on track. He was never shy of sharing any financial advice that would help me achieve my goals and also to improve my spending habits. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others.

Shafiq (Civil servant) & Hidayah (Healthcare)

Syamim has been a great help to our family when it comes to financial planning. Although we both knew each other personally, he showcased his professionalism and dedication in his work. He will always come prepared for the meet up sessions and has been excellent in planning for our future family goals. Syamim has made us understand better when it comes to insurance and investment and gives very good advice. He is definitely the modern day kind of financial advisor you would not want to miss out on. A very thoughtful and respectful individual too.

Haidil (Civil servant)

I met Syamim as he was the financial advisor to many of my friends and colleagues. The financial planning and projection of my goals through his excel sheet allowed me to balance and plan my goals not only for the short term but also for the longer term. In addition, I got to know the importance of having adequate insurance cover in order to live my life without worries. Syamim was different to other advisors that I have met as he went through the extra mile to personalize his solutions to my needs and situation and makes the effort to conduct yearly reviews to ensure I am on track with my goals. I would definitely recommend others to meet Syamim

Izzat (Pilot) & Tiara (Homemaker)

I was introduced to Syamim by a friend who gave good reviews about him. We both immediately clicked during our first meeting via zoom call. I felt comfortable talking to him throughout the meeting as he was easy-going and patient. He explained everything in detailed (including well-drawn illustrations which were easy to understand for someone like me who had no prior knowledge on financial planning) and provided valuable knowledge that I never knew existed. He was also not pushy or hard selling like some financial advisors whom I have met before him. He keeps in touch with me and does regular reviews to make sure I am on track with my financial and personal goals. This really shows his dedication in having his clients’ best interests at heart and his passion in his career, which I really admire. I truly appreciate the additional efforts he put in to meet my needs and he is constantly there to clarify any of my doubts while also answering questions on financial planning and investments. What he does is selling lifetime financial security not just for myself but for my loved ones too. I highly recommend Syamim and he should be the number one choice as your financial advisor. Do not look further!

Xin Ni (Pharmacist)

Syamim is one of the few financial advisors that go that extra mile. On top of being knowledgeable in the financial field, he: * Patiently sits down with you through multiple sessions to understand your financial needs before sharing his recommendations * Gives you a Holistic overview of your finances throughout your life after mapping it out with you, using easy to understand graphs and excel models (no overly complicated excel formulas involved!) * Explains to you the different financial tools you can use (not limited to insurance policies only) to achieve your financial goals, taking to account your life circumstance and your goals , and ensures that you understands before embarking on anyone of them * Takes to account your current insurance plans * And most importantly, respects your final decision I happen to just met Syamim at the point where I started to have quite a number of insurance policies and is not sure which are necessary, coupled with having huge expenses coming up in my life. Initially I didn't expect much from his sessions, but after each session, I seem to have gained new knowledge and understanding on my current financial situation, and is empowered to make right decisions. I would definitely recommend Syamim to anyone who is looking for a person to properly guide them into managing their finances in their lives, as he doesn't see you as a customer/client, but treats you as a buddy that wants to help you with managing your finances.
