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. | | | | Chee Hok Yean. President Asia Pacific. HVS Laura has been my financial consultant since 2002. She has provided very customised and holistic financial planning advice for me, especially in the area of retirement planning.
I enjoy working with her because she makes sure she understands my situation and needs first before crafting a solution for me. Her explanations are clear and she provides options in different perspectives and is not pushy in her approach.
I am glad to have found somebody I can trust to help me manage my financial planning portfolio. | | | | Carol Koh. 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! | | | | Eugene & Cheryl Teng. Aunty Laura (we call her aunty because she has been helping us since we were kids) has been providing financial advice for our entire family for close to 20 years!
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!😄

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. | | | | |
