| Ms Chia Yen-Yen . A Professional Nurse turned Financial Consultant Serene Ho, a close friend of mine, took over servicing of my husband’s portfolio when his close friend agent passed on. She also became my consultant as we wanted to have the same FC servicing us. As we have known Serene for close to 10 years, we were confident that she will be our trusted and dependable FC. Till this date, I have no regrets with this decision. Through Serene, I have purchased policies to meet the financial needs and goals of my family and I.
Serene has been consistently reviewing my family members’ portfolio every year. She provides an up-to-date summary of the policies which gives me a comprehensive yet concise picture of my wealth protection and wealth accumulation status. I was rather impressed with how systematic her approach has been.
I am grateful to Serene for guiding me with the insurance claims after my husband had a major stroke. When there was a delay in receiving the medical reports from the hospital, she followed up by making enquiries to the Medical Records Office [MRO] and Service Quality [SQ]. This expedited the matter and I was then surprised that the personnel from these departments called me up to find out how they could be of help to me.
Since then, I was just an email or call away from any assistance I needed with the medical reports. This was very helpful because I had to apply for several medical reports for claims from various insurers and other administrative matters. Serene’s proactiveness had facilitated the ease with which I was able to obtain prompt and personalised service from the MRO and SQ.
Serene also met up with me regularly during the initial 6 months after my husband’s stroke to find out how things are with me . She was always concerned about my well being as I had just experienced a rather traumatic event. She also presented the cheque for the insurance payout to me personally which she did not have to. I am thankful to Serene for going the extra mile for me. I am certain that she does the same for others.
Fast forward to 2021, I have made a career switch from a nurse of 30 years to a ‘newbie’ FC, as late as in my fifties. Also, from being my FC, Serene is now my Agency Leader and Mentor. She drove all the way to my home to hand to me by hand the learning resources for my preparation for the licensure examinations to become an FC.
I am confident to entrust my career as an FC to Serene and I have much to learn from her to be successful in this very purposeful and meaningful financial advisory service to others. I hope to emulate her attentive and listening, as well as methodical and analytical, approach.
Serene has been very encouraging, supportive and generous. For this, I am very grateful to her.
Thank you Serene.
