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!

Gabriel Borgon, Lead Commissioning and Qualification Engineer

I’ve been with Laura for almost 10 years, and in that time she’s always taken care of my insurance needs with clarity and care. She explains everything in a way that makes it easy to understand and always keeps me updated when better options become available. I first came to her through a friend’s recommendation, and I’ve been thankful ever since. One moment that really stood out was when part of a claim was initially rejected—Laura didn’t back down, pushed on my behalf, and got it covered. That kind of dedication gives me real peace of mind and shows the difference she makes.

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 you’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.

Humphrey Sew, Civil Servant

Laura has been my financial consultant for some 15 years. 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. I strongly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a financial consultant who truly goes above and beyond.

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.

Jennifer Chua

I’ve been with Laura for more than a decade, and my experience with her has always been reassuring and positive. She is consistent, patient, and someone I know I can rely on whenever I need clarity or support. What makes her different from other financial consultants is her sincerity and the way she explains things in a simple, transparent manner. She never rushes through discussions and always puts my needs first. I chose Laura because I trust her. She has been steady throughout different stages of my life, and her advice has always been thoughtful and timely. One memorable moment that stands out for me is how she supported me during a major life transition when I fell sick. Thanks to her encouragement to enhance my critical illness coverage earlier on, the policy came in at the right time—just a year later—when I needed it most. She checked in, guided me patiently through the process, and made everything so much easier during a very difficult period.
