I was skeptical of FA in general but Syamim puts me at ease. He clearly outlines the pros and cons of his plans, any fees and pitfalls you should be worried about when investing or looking into insurance.
Even if you decide not to engage him, he still gives you 100% and breaks down very logical goals for you to understand in an easy manner. Overall will and have been recommending Syamim to everyone! | | | | Khai (Lawyer) I met Syamim based on strong recommendations from friends he had previously advised, and their confidence in his track record immediately gave me assurance in his services. The most beneficial aspects of our meeting were the in-depth financial planning around my personal goals and his deep knowledge in tailoring financial products specifically to my situation.
What truly set this experience apart from other advisors I’ve met was that Syamim was never pushy—he focused on understanding rather than selling. He is also extremely contactable and responsive to my queries, no matter how big or small.
I would confidently recommend meeting with Syamim to anyone looking for clear, personalised, and trustworthy financial advice. | | | | Zabeer (Business owner) I was encouraged to meet Syamim by my best friend due to the great experience he had with the services and relationship he offered. I was always the person who thought that I could manage my own financial planning for the future.
My first meeting with Syamim was very different than what I had pictured. It was more like having a friend over to who has keen listening ear and someone who has our interest as his main priority. He gives you ideas and is not steadfast in selling his point of view rather he is willing to find the closest solutions to our financial needs.
Understanding the priorities that we have, he constructs a clear financial plan for both the near and the distant future. When you choose him as your financial planner , you get a person who is meticulous in looking after the fine details of your financial goals that you have. Rest assured , you can have the peace of mind that it is well taken care of.
I would recommend any person to have a first meeting with Syamim before you take a decision on engaging any other person for your financial needs or if you were someone like me, try meeting Syamim and feel the impression he can make on you. | | | | Khairulnizam (Business Owner) Syamim is an outstanding advisor with an unmatched work ethic. He is empathetic to my financial circumstances and very detailed in his approach to chart a systematic plan towards financial stability and ultimately; freedom. If I can sum up Syamim in one word, it would definitely be 'PREPARATION'. Be prepared to take your first steps to a valuable life. | | | | Rima (Instructor) Syamim was my classmate back in JC and a few years after we graduated our respective universities, he told me he was a Financial Consultant and asked if I would like to engage his services. When I told him I was not ready due to the fact that I only just started working, he was patient and accommodating as he did not push me any further. I finally decided to meet him some years later to engage his services and I never looked back since.
He was able to tell me what I was doing right, and also what I could do better. He is very knowledgeable and was able to explain to me everything I needed to know. The most important thing that he could do was to be patient with me as I switched jobs (and hence a change in my income) and navigate through some personal issues. While there were a couple of things that he had me do, he was understanding enough when I explained to him my situation at that point of time.
All in all he’s a very kind person, and he genuinely wants to help, no matter what stage of life you’re at. Would definitely recommend Syamim! | | | | Naufal (Pilot) Syamim is very earnest in helping me draw out my financial plans across short, medium and long term periods. He takes time run through in detail on the different aspects of financial planning. Importantly, he makes it a point to educate his clients so that we can achieve a better understanding of our financial status. Syamim gives valuable advice to ensure our needs are met first before helping us to achieve what we want by putting in place realistic goals. Syamim will also provide periodic follow ups to ensure we remain on track and is always available for any queries. I sincerely recommend Syamim to anyone that is looking for any financial services and planning. | | | | |
