Aliah & Nas (Teachers)

We reached out to Syamim because our sisters spoke highly of his expertise in financial planning. The best part of meeting Syamim was feeling like we were chatting with a friend rather than sitting through a stuffy financial consultation. He didn't just throw numbers at us; he listened to our hopes, fears, and crazy dreams. Together, we crafted a plan that felt like it was tailored just for us. It was like an epiphanic moment— We finally understood our finances, and had a roadmap to chase our dreams. We think everyone our age could benefit from that kind of clarity and encouragement provided by Syamim. In the past, we’ve felt like just another number on someone's client list. But with Syamim, it was different. He made us feel heard and understood. That personal touch made all the difference. If you're feeling overwhelmed by finances or just need a little direction, Syamim is your guy. He's not just a financial advisor; he's a cheerleader, a mentor, and a friend all rolled into one. Meeting with him was the best decision we’ve made for our financial future, and I know he can do the same for you.

Ridhwaan (Analyst)

Syamim have been very helpful in advising me how to manage my finances well. He gave me valuable tools to help see where my expenses go. One of things I like about Syamim’s financial planning is that, he is very clear and concise. He focuses on every detail of my financials and making sure that all factors are taken into account. Unlike other financial planners, Syamim goes the extra mile to plan for my future upcoming expenses like BTO, having a baby etc. He has an excel to show me how much money I need in my CPF OA to manage my monthly housing loan. I would recommend a meeting with Syamim to anyone who wants to learn about managing your money and investing smartly.

Shafiq (Civil servant) & Nani (Teacher)

I chose to meet Syamim because I was curious on how my fiancé manages his financials. We are open when it comes to financial management and what really captured my attention was that Syamim pays attention to the small details for his clients. He ensures that Shafiq doesn't feel burdened and did not force him into anything that he cannot commit to yet. Something different about Syamim is that he does excel sheets on planning for you so that you won’t question what is going to happen because it is already projected on the excel. He is the only agent that we see doing this, which gives you personalised data and a feeling of priority. For me, I find that him putting himself into my shoes really shows the decency of a human being. He knows that everybody is struggling with something and he ensures that I don’t feel embarrassed or difficult when talking to him. When talking to him for the first time, I felt comfortable as though we were friends before. He made it seem easy to talk to him about anything. He can do both small talks and deep conversations. When I first heard about him from Shafiq, I did not expect to see a friend more than an agent. I would definitely recommend this meeting to everyone. I’ve met with a few financial advisors and Syamim made me the most comfortable to talk about my financial situation. Convincing is something anyone in this field can do but trust takes courage and time. And he seems genuine for me to trust.

Midzi (Estate Executive)

Syamim is always upfront and honest in answering my queries. He takes his time to explain everything in detail and make sure I understand what policies I am opting for. The most beneficial part of the meeting is the financial planning. I benefitted a lot from his planning to make sure I am on track with the proposed financial plans to hit my different financial milestones such as marriage and housing. Planning ahead is key and Syamim has helped me become accountable to it. Syamim is very approachable. The experience is great as communication is key. To understand and to know a policy you are getting is very important. I would definitely recommend Syamim to others! I would never risk my reputation to recommend unless I have experienced it myself.

Danial (Procurement) & Yani (Teacher)

We met Syamim as he was recommended by a family member. The meetings with Syamim helped us to better understand our financial plans & goals. He created a realistic financial strategy that allows us to reflect on what we need and what we have to accomplish, moving forward into the future. The meeting with Syamim was different as compared to our previous meetings with other financial advisors as he has not been upselling us on things that would not benefit us right now; rather, he prioritised in guiding us in achieving the basic needs we require for our families. I would definitely recommend others to meet Syamim!

Arshi (News Editor)

I was recommended to meet Syamim by a family member, and I’m really glad I did. Our meetings are always informative—I’ve learned so much about improving my spending habits and growing my savings. What stands out most is Syamim’s honest and candid approach; he genuinely prioritises your well-being and comfort, which makes the whole experience feel personal and trustworthy. Compared to other financial planning sessions I’ve had, this one felt much more tailored and sincere. I would absolutely recommend meeting Syamim to anyone looking for clarity and confidence in their financial journey.
