  • PROACTIVE, APPROACHABLE & HELPFUL!


    I got to know Julian when I was looking for a maternity insurance during pregnancy. As a young parent himself, he shared his personal experiences with myself and the financial challenges that a new parent may face. With that, he was able to provide a sound solution to my needs.

    When my baby was hospitalised shortly after birth, Julian actively helped us to check on the insurance cover, and my husband and I are grateful for his services.

    Julian is very proactive and approachable with no hard selling, and I will recommend him to anyone who is keen on enhancing their insurance coverage.

    Throughout the consultative process and even after sales, Julian continues to be very prompt and responsive to my enquiries.

    If you are looking for someone who is non-pushy and will tailor options with your interests at heart, look no further.

  • MAKE YOU AT EASE, PATIENT AND COMPETENT!


    Julian is the best and definitely a pleasure to work with. He has been a family friend for years and he never never tried to push me for anything until I was ready to discuss insurance.

    Once we got the conversation going, he would always have the appropriate answers and responses that caters best to my unique needs.

    As there are many components within insurance policies that I don’t exactly understand, he will take the patience to explain in detail on my terms and give me space and time to think about it.

    I would definitely recommend him to people whom just started their careers and are trying to find their bearings. Or just about anyone needing financial planning.

    All the best!

    Ashley Chiam, Designer

  • SMILEY AND PROMPT SERVICE!


    I got to know Julian many years ago when my previous agent left and he took over the account to service the policy. Julian is always smiley when I meet him and replies my enquiries promptly. I appreciate that he

    always gives me options for my insurance needs and works to my budget. I'll give him a score of 💯! That's why after I have children, I entrusted their financial planning to him as well knowing they'll be in good hands.

  • APPROACHABLE, TRUSTWORTHY, GENUINE


    Julian is a long trusted friend whom I’ve met in church since my young adult days. Now both of our families have become family friends. Julian is genuine, friendly and approachable, and for the years I have known him, I could always ask him for advice or suitable offerings to meet my financial goals. I’m analytical and always come with many questions, but he would take time to explain and help me understand. I would definitely recommend Julian as a trustworthy and genuine friend and financial advisor.

    Stephan T, Data Analyst

  • HONEST AND PATIENT! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!


    Julian was the first friend I made in Junior College. He is sincere, honest and down-to-earth.

    Although he has been a financial advisor for many years, he has never ever approached me to buy anything from him. I approached him as he is reliable as a longtime friend. He will give me a summary of the things I need to know and understand and willing to provide more explanations when I ask.

    His advice is clear and tells me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear. I appreciate that he never hard sells anything. Would recommend him to anyone!

    Sarah Ochi, Assistant HR Manager

  • TRUSTED, RELIABLE & ENCOURAGING 👍


    I first knew Julian when we were mates in college. We reconnected surreptitiously in a gym many years later and the connection/dialogue is still as strong as before. It was as if we never lost contact. It was also an opportune moment as I was trying to find my feet in a field which was new and alien to me: financial independence.

    Julian was able to personally guide me in financial independence, sharing his money saving habits with me and encouraging me not to give up in this arduous journey of monitoring my expenses and saving extravagantly. In short, he became my FI accountability partner, and also a good friend whom advises me about life and relationships.

    He exudes quiet self confidence. Despite this, he is humble and is able to put people at ease. He is someone whom I can confide in with both financial and personal matters and provides incisive advice that clarifies all self-doubt. This is especially important when one is wavering or on a fence over decision makings.

    What I appreciate the most from his services?

    Being a good listener and an adviser. He never attempted to sell me his products/services after we reconnected. He is first and foremost a friend, and if you want to engage him at your own will, he is a trusted reliable financial planner. I have since moved my Manulife account to him, including my parents' insurance plans.

    How likely am I to recommend him to others on a scale of 1-10?

    A resounding 10!

    I will recommend Julian to anyone whom desires a financial planner whom acts with integrity and treats his clients not as transactions/prospects but as friends.

    Brian Chong, Bank Associate

  • A TRUE FRIEND WHO GIVES GREAT ADVICE!


    Julian is my primary school classmate’s brother and I have known him for the longest time.

    When giving financial advice, unlike many, he doesn’t hard sell. I can feel the sincerity in his advice and that he has my best interests at heart.

    People who know him will agree with me that he is a family man and a true bro. Always a phone call away, you know you are in good hands.

    No matter which phase of life you are in right now, if you need advice on financial planning, he’s the guy for you.

    Gan Cai Jie, Commercial Lines Underwriter

  • LISTENS, UNDERSTANDS & TAILORED RECOMMENDATIONS!


    I came to know Julian as we attended the same church and was in the same cell group.

    He is easy going and well versed in financial instruments and products.

    What we appreciate the most about him is he understands what we are looking for in the different stages of our life and tailors his recommendations to our needs and preferences. We don’t feel pressured or rushed into making a investment decision in our discussions with him.
