Basir (Business Analyst)

I met Syamim through football more than 5 years ago when I was in National Service. Back then, Syamim shared with me the importance of financial planning after I graduated from university. Fast forward to now, as a fresh graduate with very minimal knowledge, I went in for a meet up with him to learn more on the topics of financial planning. Syamim is very knowledgeable in sharing the many aspects of financial planning. When advising on the different policies, he is straight to the point as well as making in simple to understand. What I like the most is how he helps me to plan my finances and budget in an excel file to help me reach my short and long term goal so that I have a good idea on how much I need to save and invest to reach that goal. I would definitely recommend meeting Syamim to have a greater understanding on financial planning and how it can help you.

Saliha (Research Asssistant)

I have always wondered about my husband's FP - how involved, efficient and invested he is. My insurance agent was originally a friend, who has left the company and he handed over my policies to his colleague. A significant number of years had passed, yet I have never met my new IA and I did not receive any updates on changes in policies. I decided I would like to meet Syamim to have a 2nd opinion, and I was really glad it happened. He was calm, knowledgeable and patiently refreshed the policies I had back then. Planning for both our short and long term goals was the highlight of the meeting for me. Syamim is someone who makes you feel valuable and empower you with the belief that you are capable of change. He supports you in your retirement goals, without neglecting your current and potential needs for the family. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others! It is always good to have a 2nd opinion, and Syamim will shed light on what is the best comprehensive plan according to your needs and financial capacity.

Pau (Software Engineer)

I have met many financial consultants, but I have not come across someone as invested as Syamim in educating his clients. He is very knowledgeable and provides advice according to our goals in life, with a detailed blueprint on how to achieve them. I find the regular meet up sessions to review my finances to be the most beneficial as it allows me to reflect on my financial journey so far and adjust accordingly when needed. In addition, he keeps track of my finances to keep me accountable. Syamim's sessions are different from other financial planning sessions I went through so far as all of them tend to focus on selling their products rather than enrich me with knowledge in accordance to my unique situation. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others!

Diana (Teacher)

I chose to meet Syamim on the recommendation of my husband actually! I thought it would be seamless and easier if Syamim manages both of our plans and I’ve never regretted my decision! He’ll listen to your needs and recommend the best plans for you. I like that he gives options for his recommendations and he respects my choice. I like the part where he asks me what’s my current coverage and how else can I better protect myself. He also maps out what I’m aiming for in the future so I find that very helpful if I know where the money I’m investing in my plans is going to. He also goes through the plans in detail, and yet simplifies it so it’s not too overwhelming. I also like that he personalises and customises a sheet to track my plans, so I know that he is keeping up with it! His session is different from other advisors that I’ve met where it’s just an overload of information and they just recommend the plans to get without asking the consumer what are their goals. I would definitely 100% recommend this meeting to others! Syamim will provide a customised experience for your financial planning needs!

Liz (Engineer)

I met Syamim after being highly recommended by my colleague. I realized that I am at midlife phase where I need more insurance coverage that I have neglected to do so in my tricenarian. Throughout the meetings, I got the expert advise & Syamim not only recommended me essential solutions that I need in long run but also coached me, a financial illiterate in financial planning. This experience was different to other financial planning sessions as Syamim is a knowledgeable financial advisor who looked through my monthly expenditure and savings, then provided advise gearing me towards financial stability in long run. He always came well prepared in each meeting. Unlike many assurance agents who just wanted to achieve sales, Syamim is so different. He genuinely listened in each session to understand my lifestyle and needs, only then he will recommend insurances which are not costly and affordable and best beneficial to me. He even went extra miles out of his job scope to teach me the advantages of creating a will, encourage me to put nominations for CPF and OPG (protect persons who lack mental capacity). I would definitely recommend this meeting to others!

Nasran (Early Childhood Teacher)

Meeting Syamim helped me establish a proper system that I could use to ensure accountability of my finances. He made me realise that it is crucial and necessary for me to plan ahead be it short-term or long-term in terms of personal finances. I definitely would recommend this meeting to other people because he ensures that the methods he suggests are applicable to my financial situation as well as provide further insight to better improve my financial literacy. People would definitely benefit from meeting him as he provides a very open and understanding environment when it comes to personal financial aspects like spending and income, and even takes a step further in providing a viable solution that is effective and personalised.
