In today’s fast-paced world, managing your finances can feel like juggling a hundred things at once. Between work, family, and personal goals, who really has time to chase down emails and log into portals just to pay an insurance premium?
Here’s why switching to GIRO could be the easiest way to keep your insurance payments stress-free and on time:
1️⃣ No More Missed Payments – That once-a-year letter in the mailbox has become a thing of the past. Now, everything is online, but we all know how easy it is to miss that one important notice hiding among a mountain of emails. Unless you’re regularly logging in, that crucial email might slip through the cracks. A single missed payment could lead to a temporary lapse in coverage. GIRO ensures you’re always protected without the worry.
2️⃣ Advisors Aren’t Superhuman: While most advisors would try their best to keep you on track, life happens and they aren’t immune to life’s curveballs. There could be situation keeping them away from work at times. Additionally, some insurers only trigger a notice to advisors on the 2nd notice – this means that you would have less time to act if a payment was missed.
3️⃣ Stay Scam-Safe – With the rise of sophisticated scams, clicking through SMS payment links—even legit ones—feels risky. GIRO cuts out the need to click anything, keeping you safe from potential scams.
Life’s too short to be constantly worrying about your insurance payments.

I believe that “Worrying is not planning and Hope is not a good strategy”, and that the purpose of Financial Planning is to allow us to lead fulfilling lives while being financially wise.
As such, my role as a Certified Financial Planner CFP® is to help my clients build those sound financial strategies and design action plans that put them on track to their financial goals so that they can live the best possible life for themselves.
This is done via a systematic approach of ongoing cash flow management & asset allocation, as well as investment management, estate planning, and tax optimization.
I also ascertain that I stay up-to-date with industry trends and policies changes to ensure that my clients benefit from the latest strategies and opportunities available.
Over the years, I have developed a specialty in comprehensive financial planning for busy legal professionals & educators. I also particularly like assisting working mothers & young families to achieve their long term financial goals. Working with the largest independent financial advisory (IFA) firm in Singapore also frees me from product pressures and allows me to only recommend solutions that suit my client’s needs. And client’s interest, is always the core of my FA business.
Being a wealth planner is my dream career and this is what I hope to do for a long time.
Other than financial planning & investment, I love to travel, read, bake and I am an adrenaline enthusiast. I am most looking forward to the day my children join me on my adventures.
