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!

Naff (Media Analyst)

Syamim has taught me a lot about how to better manage my finances, as well as the importance of being prudent and prepared for the future. He has been very detailed and patient in helping me sort out my finances. I especially appreciate him taking the time to come up with a personalised plan that is easy for me to understand and keep up along the way. Syamim sets aside realistic financial goals for me in terms of my immediate as well as future plans. He is very approachable and always ready to answer my queries with sincerity. Thank you for always going the extra mile! I highly recommend Syamim for anyone who is looking for personal financial management.

Irdina (HR Executive)

Syamim takes the time to go through in detail about financial planning & the different types of insurance & investments to ensure that I have a clear understanding about what I am getting myself into. He isn’t your typical financial advisor, he goes the extra mile to help you achieve your financial goals/milestones. He will conduct financial reviews with you to ensure that you’re on the right track. Would highly recommend anyone, especially new hires to get in touch with Syamim to understand the importance of financial planning!

Durgga (Lecturer)

Syamim is a great consultant and he takes a lot of effort in managing his client’s portfolio. Truly impressed on the service he provided and his patience in explaining the product details as well. Thank you Syamim!
