A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In meeting the demands of work and every day life, many of us can feel compelled to do all things at once, and may become overwhelmed or less effective as a result. To counter this, it is worth taking a moment to adjust our pace; to give ourselves the space to practice taking one step at a time in the ways we perform our tasks and how we manage our minds & emotions.

Single-Tasking for Productivity and Stress Management

I used to be a big fan of multi-tasking when it became a popular strategy for productivity. The idea of doubling productivity by doing multiple things at once is quite appealing for busy people, and these days most of us are busy people. However, several studies show that in most cases, multi-tasking can negatively affect productivity and efficiency. Here's how.

Naqia & Emi (Civil servant)

Syamim is a great financial advisor. We had other insurance agents before, but like most, after signing up for the insurance or financial plans, agents tend to vanish. When you are laid in a hospital and need help, you'd expect your agent to be able to answer your queries. Ours didn't. Luckily for us, we had already engaged Syamim as our financial advisor. When I was admitted to the hospital, despite not having a hospitalisation plan with him, Syamim gave us the answers that we needed when our own agent disappeared on us. After I was discharged, again it was Syamim who helped us with the claiming. Imagine that! An honest and reliable financial advisor in your time of need! He didn't hard-sell any of his plans. He listened to our needs and explained thoroughly about the plans he thought was necessary at different points in our life. A great financial advisor that we would definitely recommend!!

Raihan (Civil servant) & Sonia (Teacher)

We were looking for an financial advisor and got to know Syamim through a family member. The most beneficial part of the meeting is that Syamim is very transparent and he encourages you to select what is best for you at your current life stage. As for us, we met him when we were about to get married and he explained about the financial plans that’ll benefit us both in the future. We would recommend others to meet Syamim is warm & kind. He respects your space but is genuine in getting to know you at a personal level.

Atiqah (Patient Service Associate)

I was recommended to Syamim by my partner who was one of his clients. Meeting Syamim allowed me to be disciplined in managing my finances so that I am able to plan for my financial goals within the right time frame. It was helpful as he showed me how much I needed to set aside to reach my desired goals. Every year, I am happy with the progression I have made in my finances. I would definitely recommend Syamim to others wanting to improve their finances!

Ainnie (Stage manager)

I choose Syamim after seeing my fiancé take charge of his finances and seeing him planning for the future inspires me to do the same. I personally like how Syamim personalized my financial plan without being pushy and he ensures that I am on track with my personal goals. As me and my fiancé are moving to the next chapter in our lives, I feel Syamim is the best person to really understand and plan for our finances towards financial freedom.

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!

Erwin (Asst Executive)

I met syamim through a friend’s recommendation. It was at a time where I needed to kickstart my savings/investment/health plans to secure a better future for myself and the people that I love. I’ve met a few FAs before syamim. Truth be told, some were intimidating and some were pushy to sign the plans. Some were very adamant about their ‘own way of planning’. What I love about Syamim is that he is never pushy. He will answer all your queries and he is not intimidating. He will understand your life’s goals first, before curating a financial plan that suits you. Very knowledgeable about investments and very understanding as an FA. Alas, he is now my friend that I can count on for advices. I recommend you to set a meeting with Syamim to start your financial journey with him. I genuinely believe that he got what it takes to advice you, plan your finances and take care of your investments. I support him 100%, and I trust my financial journey is in good hands.
