Uwais (Firefighter)

I have known Syamim for more than 10 years. Despite our close friendship, he has always remained professional whenever we discuss topics on personal finance. Syamim has guided me not only in typical insurance and investments but also helped me plan through important milestones in my life such as marriage, renovations and family planning. I would definitely recommend engaging Syamim's services as his holistic and long-term financial planning has allowed me to live my life worry free.

Fatima (Pharmacist) & Khai (Engineer)

I met Syamim through my husband as I wanted to engage the services of a financial consultant that can manage both my personal finances and shared finances with my husband. I was hesitant at first as I already had a financial consultant before meeting Syamim but after hearing about his excellent services, I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised during the first meeting with Syamim - he is a knowledgeable consultant yet breaks it down such that it is easier for me to understand the different insurance policies and financial tools that are available. He provides options and plans/ideas tailored specifically to my finances and lifestyle. He also always ensures that I have a holistic understanding of my financial landscape and goals in life. I highly recommend Syamim to anyone who is looking for a competent financial consultant who is dedicated and thorough in his work.

Adeline (Product Manager) & Sin Wee (Biz Owner)

I knew Syamim through a friend of mine! He has been helpful in giving me and my fiancé his expertise and helping us to plan our overall finances, cash flow and our different life goals. Unlike other advisors, he is a humble guy and will use data to help us gain confidence in planning for our financial milestones. He will prepare all the necessary PowerPoint and explain to us patiently . He is also very knowledgeable and experienced, which made me and my fiancé trust him. I would recommend him to others if they want to start their finances right.

Abdullah (Customer Service)

I am not young anymore and I need help from the professional to make decisions about what I should do with my money, including investments and financial planning. Syamim was recommended by someone I knew and gave good reviews about him. His easy-going and patient nature made me feel comfortable. Syamim uses his knowledge and expertise to construct a personalized financial plan according to my own goals. The financial map provided was useful in helping me visualize the various financial milestones. I am impressed with his slides, summaries and infographics of the various policies and he ensures the policies he offer suits me the best without being pushy. I will highly recommend Syamim to my friends! He has helped me to plan for my future. I appreciate the efforts he put in to meet my needs and he is always there to clarify my doubts while also answering any questions I have on my financial plan. Thank you for the excellent service!

Adilah & Khai

I met Syamim after he planned with my mom regarding her insurance, I feel that he is great financial planner in terms of how to save, what criteria is important at the current stage of life and recommendation on what to do next. The most beneficial part of the meeting would be the explanation on insurance. As I feel like nowadays, we don’t know when we’re gonna get into an accident/death/illness. Hence, this will greatly benefit my loved ones that I nominated for. Also, the part where he alters the monthly savings required to suit my needs to which I’m comfortable with. We are able to plan financially about our current stage of life as my husband and I are going to be new home owners. So that’s another thing where Syamim has taken into account also. I strongly recommend Syamim to others as he is very knowledgeable in all aspects that we can think of. Investment, saving up, loans and etc. He will be able to draft up a financial plan that caters to our needs and that we’re comfortable starting with. Also, he is able to alter the plan if there was some hiccups in the way which is great! All in all, he really is the best at what he’s doing!!

Durgga (Lecturer)
