TESTIMONIALS

Jia Min is very transparent and goes straight to the point by highlighting the pros and cons of each insurer which allow me to choose the most suitable policy. She's very detailed in her work and time to time during the meeting she will ensure that I understand before going onto the next point as I'm new to insurance. From the first time we met, I felt very comfortable and was able to express the concerns of why I want to buy insurance. With this I'm able to fully trust her with my insurance planning. As I did not have any insurance knowledge before-hand, she created a presentation to breakdown those complex information among all the insurers and compared it into much more simplified terms. I used to have a stereotype when it comes to insurance but after meeting her, I realized that she is very sincere and will even go the extra mile to send me relevant information through text which shows the effort she puts in for her clients. I'm grateful to have her as my advisor and would definitely recommend Jia Min to my friends! Keep up the good work and thank you so much Jia Min! 🙂

I have known Jia Min for over a decade as a friend, and I have no qualms about engaging her as my advisor! Unlike other agents I've met, Jia Min is very well versed in financial products, even those that her company does not carry. I am really appreciative of her hardwork and diligence in providing advice to me (even entertaining my queries on a Sunday morning) Her analysis is not only comprehensive, but also customised to my personal context and needs. I was also pleasantly surprised when she even went beyond her scope and purview to advise on my company's insurance offerings. I love how she treats it not as pushing her financial products and sales but rather more about finding the best solution for me. Knowing that, I feel really assured and secure in planning for my financial and insurance goals with her. Amazing and honest advisor! Saves you the trouble of pouring through the lengthy TnCs. Highly recommend!

Software Engineer
Jia Min helped me to map out my current financial situation so that I have a clearer picture of where I am and how do I progress towards planning for retirement, property etc., and also objectively assess my insurance policies and tell me what I need and what I do not. I have always wished that someone could tell me whether I am getting the right policies or having enough coverage instead of just selling me their insurance, and wish I could have met Jia Min earlier! She was very patient in explaining things I do not know, as there are many things that may seem like general knowledge but not for me as I have zero financial knowledge. She also goes the extra mile to find extra information, tips, and analyse my situation and advise on the most suitable options for me. I feel much better talking to her compared to a regular insurance agent who has an agenda to sell you their policy and I feel pressured to buy after they explain the policy benefits. They don't give me comparison and I do not know what other options there are and whether what they are selling is really suitable for me, or whether it is really worth buying. I really appreciate Jia Min's time and effort, thank you!

I’ve known Jiamin since my university days and she is someone I can trust fully, not just as a friend, also as an advisor. She is not pushy and gives me both sides of the picture all the time on the things I want to know, being very straightforward and to the point. What I really appreciate is how she starts the conversation with an overview on the entire planning and priorities to be discussed, before zooming into the possible solutions we can consider together. She is very willing to share her insights and expertise, especially the key details to take note of. Some of these are information which cannot be found online and you can tell it only comes with experience. With the ability to compare various products, I get better clarity on what I should be looking for and I know that Jiamin has my interests at heart. Jiamin is someone who goes beyond her duties as an advisor, and that I would definitely recommend.
Mr Low
Relationship Manager
Met Jiamin a couple of times to review and properly look through my portfolio. Prior to meeting her, I had plans with a single insurer and was not aware that comparison makes a difference. I was able to opt for insurance coverage that offer higher, more competitive benefits as a result, and even managed to save some cost on premiums! I also appreciate how Jiamin shares a bigger overview of financial planning beyond just insurance - since my insurance pays me a lump sum (that isn’t a small amount upon claim), it is important that I am clear about who I want this amount to go to, and how it is to be allocated when I am gone. Thank you Jiamin for sharing!
Mr Vincent
Quality cum Engineering Executive
When I first met Jia Min, I already had an existing agent; Despite this, I admired that she did not hard sell, and instead pointed out the bigger truths which gave me so much more clarity for what constitutes proper planning. Blink of an eye, I’ve engaged her for 4 years already, and all this time, I have continued to feel at ease leaving my investment and insurance planning with her! Her warm demeanor and personal touch makes me feel well taken care of. Jia Min is an advisor who walks the talk. She recommends suitable investments to me and does this by drawing reference to her own investment portfolio, which she is very actively invested in. She doesn’t exaggerate investment returns and makes investing very applicable to my real life! Her knowledge in the field and attention to detail makes me feel rest assured. Grateful for an advisor turned friend, thank you Jia Min!

Met JM through a mutual friend and was super happy to have gotten my first insurance plans from her! Being fresh out of university, I met a few other financial advisors prior but was unable to settle on a particular plan as there was a lot to take in with so much information to dissect! She was able to slowly explain to me and ensured that I understood what my concerns were before signing up for any plans. Something admirable about her is that she is very real and which is something hard to find with some financial advisors these days! JM was clear and provided me with the necessary information that suited my needs! She is extremely professional and approachable to her clients and I would definitely recommend her if you need help with purchasing insurance or any sort of financial advise!
Mr Song
Commercial Coordinator
Appreciate Jiamin's non-biased advice from day one! Unlike other agents I’ve met who try to push me plans I may not need, Jiamin took time to highlight what’s most important for me - my hospital plan. I am thankful to have followed her advice to secure my coverage, as later on, when I had to claim for two surgeries (the bills amounted to about $10k), my plan allowed me to waive off most of this amount. While making the claim, there were also some admin issues to handle and Jiamin was there at every step to guide me through and check on anything that needed clarification asap with the insurer/ clinic. For my investments, Jiamin is also very dedicated and sends me regular reports to update on performances. I highly recommend Jiamin to all those looking for insurance and investments, as she is easygoing and dependable!

Jia Min is a responsive and dependable advisor. There were a few claims I needed help with recently, and she has assisted me promptly, ensuring that the claims process is smooth and paid out asap. Much appreciated! As she sends me important updates from time to time, we’ve kept in touch and I’ve reach out for a policy review recently. In our recent session, she is able to put herself into our shoes to optimise my family’s coverage and cater to my needs. She is also able recommend the best value insurer accordingly, taking care of any pros and cons of each insurer I should be aware of.

It is my privilege to have Jia Min and Rui Han in assisting me on this journey. They have been very honest, transparent and supportive in getting a good term plan for me. Although I have some existing medical conditions, it did not deter them from trying to help me. I am very appreciative to have them accompanying me to complete my Will at a competitive rate as well. Even when they are not really earning from the process of me drawing up my Will, they are still doing the backend coordination to give me a greater peace of mind. A big kudo to the team. Highly recommended!

After meeting her a couple of times for my policy review, she is indeed genuine, as she was fine with me asking about alternatives insurers besides the one recommended to me. Also, unlike most agents I've met, I opened up to her quickly as she is very friendly. I'm glad to have her as my adviser!
