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.

Rayn Ngong. Senior Vice President. GIC

Laura was introduced to me in 2002, not long after I had just started working. Over the years, she has maintained close contact with me and has been regularly updating me and my family in our financial planning journey. Of all the Financial Consultants I have met, Laura has been the most conscientious and comprehensive in her financial planning strategies. With her competent advice over the years, I have been able to comfortably plan for my family's protection as well as our wealth accumulation needs. At the same time, as Laura is a certified Estate Planner, she has also helped me in the area of legacy and estate planning. Getting a trusted consultant who looks out for you is important. I am thankful that I have not just found a trusted financial consultant, but also a good friend who has seen me through the different stages of my life.

Gerard Tong . Director, Epitrain Pte Ltd Adjunct Professor. SMU, NUS

Let me start by saying I am not an easy person to deal with. I am impatient, opinionated and stubborn. The fact that Laura has been servicing me since 2004, and is the only Financial Advisor whom I have bothered to speak more than 5 words to, speaks volumes of her approach, presentation and knowledge. From the start, I made it clear that as a (now retired) financial market professional, I was not interested to hear about investment-linked policies, believing that I could do a better job that the fund managers. Laura kept that in mind, and respected that, occasionally making a passing recommendation on a fund she felt was really worth looking at, but immediately putting that aside as soon as I impatiently gave her a dismissive wave. Instead, she focused on building up a portfolio of policies which covered other critical areas, such as death, sickness, mortgage protection and such. Never over-selling, she would not push more coverage than was required to me. Not the sort of insurance agent to close a deal, collect their commission and forget the client, Laura readily advised and assisted with claims, and consistently checked up on my situation in life, personal and financial to review my coverage, even advising me on my plans to scale back as my coverage requirements shrank with age. Just this month, after identifying that I was losing interest in managing my own money, but still wanting superior returns, she sold me a bond fund policy, after years of watching my dismissive hand. It shows great professionalism, keeping mum about investment-linked policies all these years, but always keeping a look out for changes in my life state, and bringing it up again when it has become appropriate. If youโ€™re looking for a professional, competent, reliable Financial Advisor (in truth, we all NEED one, even if we have not realised it yet), who genuinely cares about you, then look no further.

She has been very supportive of us and with changes to the economy, have helped us adapt our financial situation accordingly as well. Thanks Aunty Laura for all your help, providing us with a headstart as compared to the other kids my age. Of course I have to thank my mum for investing in us, but due to Aunty Laura's help, my sister and I have been able to be covered comprehensively since we were young, which many kids in Singapore do not have the luxury to do so. Onwards another 20 years!๐Ÿ˜„ - Eugene Teng ShopeeExpress โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” Auntie Laura has been my mum's insurance agent since I was young and have seen me grew up from a child to an adult.
