Associate Lecturer & Swimming Coach. Republic Polytechnic Laura is a childhood friend whom I had not caught up with in ages. When we first met up many years later, the feeling was so comfortable, even when I asked her for financial advice as a friend.
As such, I decided that she would make a good financial advisor. She was very attentive and understood my needs. She is very knowledgeable in financial planning and gives sound advice.
With Laura as my financial advisor, I know that I am in good hands! Thanks to Laura, I feel more assured of my retirement plans and I’m definitely more covered medically! | | | Lilian Chang. NTUC Enterprise. I have known Laura as a software vendor in 2004 when I was working in an IT firm. Laura has a truthful personality, and we became good friends very quickly. We continued to keep in touch even when both of us left our jobs.
She became my financial consultant when she joined Prudential and helped me look into both my hubby and my portfolio to plan for my retirement. Kids were young then, and good financial planning was very important. With Laura's help, my family's investments and health protection plans were in good hands. Laura is helpful and goes the extra mile to explain and assess plans I have and helped me set milestones.
Over the years, Laura has become a family friend. My children are now grown ups and Laura has started guiding them with their financial planning patiently. To me, she is not just a FC, she is already a friend whom I trust with my financial planning.
Laura is a person whom you can go to and trust, as she has your interests in mind. | | | Jeremy Koh. Senior Manager. ASM I was first introduced to Laura by a close friend in 2021 when I shared with him that I needed some help on CPF planning for my retirement.
When I first met Laura, I was impressed with her level of professionalism. She took the time to really understand my financial situation, my goals and my needs before recommending what I should do with regards to my query on my CPF monies.
She is very clear and simple in her explanations and gave me a very clear overview and provided me with financial advice beyond what I had expected, and not just confined to retirement planning.
Laura is not pushy in her approach and is sincere, knowledgeable and experienced. I am glad to have her to help me manage my portfolio and strongly recommend anyone who needs professional and trusted advice to meet up with her. | | | Chun-Chau. Director of Business Development. Saab Laura has been our financial consultant more than 15 years, seeing us through the various stages of our lives and financial priorities.
I recalled that she advised me on my personal insurance at the infant stage of my career, to advising me on family protection when I started my family and having kids, to looking at building an education portfolio to support my kids' education and now, looking at building my retirement funds.
We are glad to have her watching over our entire financial and insurance portfolio including other products which are outside her portoflio. She is our "go-to" person for any financial matters including car and housing loans as well as home, car and travel insurance.
Besides providing financial advisories, what I really like most is her personalised support. I recalled my daughter was hospitalised years back, she visited her, brought her a soft toy, find out how she was doing and even helped us make claims from an insurance company outside her portoflio.
It has been an amazing journey with Laura. I would say that insurance and finance are very sensitive and personal matters. We need someone whom we can trust. We are glad that we have Laura as our trusted consultant, a closed friend of ours and a great auntie to my kids. | | | Leung Wai Hoong. Chief Strategy Officer. New H3C Group Laura has been my financial advisor for nearly 20 years. I am impressed with her professionalism and the passion she displays in her work. She is a strong listener and is able to fully grasp my requirements to design and recommend well-suited products for my needs.
Her breadth and depth of professional knowledge is amazing, which she leveraged well to provide me with adequate and timely information so that I can make correct and informed decisions. Furthermore, she goes out all the way for her client to ensure strong satisfaction in her services.
Over the years, Laura has been conscientious in tracking my professional and personal development and proactively provided advice on financial products to cater to my evolving needs. Laura has also extended her services to cover the needs of my wife as well as my children.
Through Laura, we have committed to a number of insurance plans such as life, term, accident, hospitalization, annuity, ILP and SRS! With such a portfolio and lifecycle perspective for my entire family, there is no reason not to continue to use her services!
I have also referred a number of friends to her and the feedback from them indicated the same high level of responsiveness and professionalism that I have experienced in interacting with Laura. It is thus also no surprise that she has been a high-flying professional in her line of work, and I wish her all the best for her continued success! | | | Dr Tan Eng Hoe & Mary We have known Laura for several years now. Recently, I reached out to her to get her opinion about some retirement plan options. She did not push us any products but instead patiently helped us to make a decision based on our needs at our current stage of life.
She was very patient in going through our all our existing policies that we have purchased through the years and offered very clear explanations.
We are very thankful for her advice and would strongly recommend her to anybody looking for a different perspective from a trusted financial consultant.
