In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!

Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.

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.

Zabeer (Business owner)

I was encouraged to meet Syamim by my best friend due to the great experience he had with the services and relationship he offered. I was always the person who thought that I could manage my own financial planning for the future. My first meeting with Syamim was very different than what I had pictured. It was more like having a friend over to who has keen listening ear and someone who has our interest as his main priority. He gives you ideas and is not steadfast in selling his point of view rather he is willing to find the closest solutions to our financial needs. Understanding the priorities that we have, he constructs a clear financial plan for both the near and the distant future. When you choose him as your financial planner , you get a person who is meticulous in looking after the fine details of your financial goals that you have. Rest assured , you can have the peace of mind that it is well taken care of. I would recommend any person to have a first meeting with Syamim before you take a decision on engaging any other person for your financial needs or if you were someone like me, try meeting Syamim and feel the impression he can make on you.

Jasmine (HR Executive)

Syamim is a dedicated and thoughtful Financial Advisor. He listens to my queries and addresses each of them professionally. Putting clients’ interest and needs first, he keeps up with the global financial situation and shares with us on the challenges economically. He is attentive to my needs and wants and plans accordingly to attain both personal and financial goals. Will gladly recommend Syamim’s service to my friends.

Haidar (Customer Success Manager)

I have known Syamim on a personal level for a couple of years through mutual friendship. In our first meetup, Syamim's tech-savvy preparation and vast knowledge on all personal financial planning aspects left me thoroughly impressed. It was easy to understand and never felt intimidating, even for a guy like me who only knew basic terms. I would strongly recommend anyone who is keen to map out their short and long term financial goals with Syamim, who's attention to detail, listening skills and honest approach will lead the nervy experience of financial planning into a highly insightful one. Keep up the outstanding work Syamim!

Thai Shawn & Rosyiidah (Social work)

We chose to meet Syamim to assess, develop and improve our financial goals & plans as a couple nearing marriage. The most beneficial part about Syamim’s advice is his sincerity in improving his clients’ financial situation. A personalised financial plan is illustrated to continually review and improve our financial status. Most financial planners are motivated by commission and profit, whereas Syamim’s goals for his clients are demonstrated by his intentions to propel them towards financial freedom. He is also authentic in terms of interaction. We would definitely recommend this meeting to others!

Zaki (Supply Chain)

I met Syamim because he is a close friend of mine and I knew from our relationship that he was someone professional and trustworthy. Any communication with him regarding any topic was very easy and fast. Upon meeting him, he made me realise the importance of insurance to protect my income and health in the event of any health issues. Most importantly, the financial plan that he crafted for me made me become more disciplined in my savings which allowed me to reach my financial goals faster such as planning for my marriage. I would highly recommend anyone to meet Syamim so that he can share with you the importance of financial planning as well as create a step by step plan to achieve your financial goals.
