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! | | | | Aik Teng, Sports Development Manager. Sport Singapore What sets Laura apart from other financial consultants is her genuine care and personal approach. She doesn’t begin with products — she starts by truly understanding my needs, goals, and spending habits. Her advice is always thoughtful and tailored, never transactional.
What makes Laura exceptional goes far beyond financial planning. She has walked with me through some of the most challenging moments in my life —one financial crisis, and 2 medical emergencies within the last 15+ years. Her quiet presence and strength gave me emotional grounding and practical support, especially when I was overwhelmed with uncertainty.
I’m incredibly grateful for Laura’s consistent care, deep expertise, and unwavering support. Even when overseas, she goes the extra mile — like the time she called a dentist friend from Chicago to help with a dental emergency I was panicking over!
If you’re looking for a financial consultant who truly cares, listens deeply, and stands by you beyond the numbers — I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Laura. You’ll be in very good hands. | | | | Chee Hok Yean. President Asia Pacific. HVS Laura has been my financial consultant since 2002.

What sets Laura apart from others is her ability to blend deep expertise with genuine care. From the beginning, she took the time to understand my unique circumstances and long-term goals – not just my numbers on paper. This allowed me to work with her as a strategic partner who manages my finances and guides me towards long-term financial independence while ensuring I have the right protection in place.
Laura provided clear, practical insights that helped me see the bigger picture – not just where I am today, but where I want to be in 10, 20, and 30 years. Her advice on building a solid financial foundation with the right safeguards has given me peace of mind regardless of the unknown future that pans out.
Throughout our time working together, she has been consistently responsive, thoughtful and thorough, not to mention attentive and open in listening to my concerns and recommending alternative options that I’m more comfortable with.
