I get to know Grace since Year 2012, while she's with UOB Bank. She was our servicing manager back then. Grace is a supportive and attentive person, regardless in banking or her own financial advisory business. I engaged her service on financial planning when she started this business. Throughout the planning process, I have a clearer picture of my long term financial goals and the steps towards those goals. She is able to provide good after sales service by updating me on the portfolio and status.

Kenneth Yong Engineer cum Director of an Engineering Consultancy Firm

I was diagnosed with T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma in Nov 2014. Subsequent to my diagnosis, I was frequently hospitalised for intensive treatments over a period of 3 years. Those insurance policies that I signed up under my Financial Adviser from Excellentte Consultancy helped me money-wise. I was able to seek suitably qualified specialists for my treatments. My heartfelt thanks go to Madam Koh for her sound advice & efficient service concerning insurance matters for over twenty years.
