Winnie's Story
It was during 1997 Asian Financial Crisis that I made the bold move to join the Insurance Industry. There was no looking back ever since. I faced many obstacles transiting from Banker to Advisor and I am grateful for supportive clients who have given me the opportunity to partner with them in their financial planning journey. I embrace life with an attitude of excellence and firmly believe that success is by design. Other than the mentors who have guided me, I am thankful for the many veterans ahead of me who have penned down their greatest lessons in books – which has brought me to where I am today. My dream eventually is to write and publish my own book.

Adriann's Story
I joined AIA as an Undergraduate FSC when I was 21 to earn more pocket money. I used to be quiet and reserved until I started gaining confidence through the business. Instead of pursuing my course of study of Engineering upon graduation, I continued my line of financial work. Under the guidance of my Director, Winnie, and with support from my wife, Fran, I became a Manager, and was eventually promoted to Associate Director. I lead a team of consultants, mostly from similar backgrounds as me. Even as a manager, I serve my clients and ensure they never walk alone in their financial planning journey. Apart from work, I also enjoy spending time with my loved ones.

Dovanson's Story
I was an undergraduate when I first joined AIA as an FSC as a way of earning extra allowance. However, over the years, I found a sense of belonging to Win Financial and a burning passion for the career. Upon graduation, I was offered to work in Australia to join my father in a Japanese Engineering MNC, which I turned down after much consideration. I had witnessed sufferings that a family would go through without proper financial planning, but more often than not, this realization comes too late for many, and the price to pay becomes too high. Therefore, it has since then been my plan to educate as many people as possible on the importance of having proper financial planning.

“I have known Dovanson for almost half of my life and his reliability and patience have been unwavering. He is a big help in getting my finances in order - always willing to go the extra mile even though there is nothing in it for him. I am clueless and fazed about financial planning, and he took the effort to explained in the most simplistic manner to the point till I finally understood - kudos to that.”
-Cheryl Lim, Associate Director, Advertising
“Dovanson and I have known each other since secondary school. I approached him to handle my AIA policies as I preferred someone familiar. Dovanson plans for me according to my current situation. He had even advised me not to take up any policy at some point in time because I was well covered. This is the mark of a truly professional financial advisor.”
-Chew Sin Kiat, IT Security Specialist
“Being part of Spartans Advisors made me realised how fortunate I am to be groomed and nurtured under the wings of Dovanson. I am extremely grateful for his selflessness and patience. Such servant leadership has brought out the best in me. To my boss and mentor Dovanson, you deserve an extra note of thanks for bringing me to where I am today!”

Kevin's Story
I was formerly a Guards Officer before I made a career switch in 1995 to become an AIA FSC. In my 24 years with AIA, I qualified for many prestigious awards, such as Life and Qualifying member of Million Dollar Round Table. Moving on to Agency Management in 2015, I am now also involved in recruitment training and performance management. I personally embrace the philosophy of work-life harmony. An FSC should not only commit to serving his clients, but take care of his family and serve the nation too. Personally, I love talking about life with my son outside of work hours, and playing a game of golf with my friends and clients as a form of exercise.

Junxiong’s Story
I initially joined AIA as an FSC to earn extra income during my undergraduate days in NTU. But it eventually grew into a commitment to help people I crossed paths with. With more than a decade of experience in the financial services industry, I understand the common financial concerns that individuals and families go through during their different stages of lives. As an FSC, I am committed to ensuring that all my clients’ financial planning needs are well taken of. When I helped a client claim a $1 million hospitalisation bill for end-stage Lymphoma, it was then that I saw how meaningful my job was. As cliché as it may sound, to be a good FSC takes dedication and sincerity.

Francesco’s Story
I was formerly a self-employed franchisor and retailer at outlets in Singapore and China. As a mother of two, however, I wanted to spend more time with my family in Singapore. I saw how my husband, as a Financial Services Associate Director at Win Financial, had helped many clients over his fifteen years in the industry. As such, I decided to join the team and become an FSC too. When I presented a claim cheque to a single mother who had breast cancer during her treatment period, I saw how meaningful my job can be – life is unpredictable, and everyone should have a Financial Advisor who is compassionate and willing to accompany them in their financial planning journey.

Insurance and financial planning are extremely important in this fast-developing world and I strongly believe that everyone should have proper planning. This belief started when my father suffered a minor stroke and we were unable to afford the medical bills. Nobody should be a liability to others and it is vital that everybody is able to get back on their feet quickly after a fall.

I started my journey as an FSC while studying in NUS. I was initially sceptical to join the financial industry as I would do so as a science student.

After witnessing how proper financial planning had helped my family, I wish to be able to reach out to many people through this career and make a positive difference for them through application of my knowledge and advice. As an FSC, I aim to give my 101% to all my clients and help them with the best that I can.

This career allows me to possess the knowledge to ensure that my family is well-protected against the unpredictable nature of the future and I am also able to help my friends and clients achieve their desired financial goals.

However, while receiving coaching and guidance from my Director and Mentor, I developed a passion for this career and saw how I can value-add to the lives of families and friends around me. People rarely see the importance of insurance, until an unexpected encounter occurs. It is all about the little difference that we can make in their future. I enjoy what I am doing because it encompasses both my interests and knowledge. I also love to explore new food places and catching up with friends outside of work hours.

It was a fruitful appointment and it made me realize how lucky I am to have parents who believe in starting insurance early for me.”
-Tay Zheng Hui, Private Tutor
“I was approached by Darryl during army and I decided to start financial planning early upon his advice. Darryl takes the effort to understand my needs and concerns and suggested areas where I could plan. He considered my different life stages and ensured that I could still afford to go for my student exchange and comfortably pay for the down payment of my first HDB.”
-Justin Ong, Accountant
“I was piled up with student loans that started in Polytechnic and had trouble clearing them upon entering army. Darryl was the first consultant who gave me advice to defer the payment because I was in National Service.

Duke's Story
When I was working in DBS, I got a call from Win Financial to explore a career in the Financial Services Industry. With a keen interest in finance, I took a leap of faith to join their internship and felt a deep connection to the industry. In my journey as an FSC, I once helped a client update his insurance portfolio and filled up the gaps which ultimately helped him claim over $100,000 when he was subsequently diagnosed with prostate cancer. This was a major milestone in my career where it reminded me of the meaningful difference I am making to others. During my free time, I play basketball not only for fitness, but to bond with my friends.

Dylon's Story
I was interested in finance and dreamt of becoming an entrepreneur. When my Mentor, Winnie, offered me an internship, I knew it was an opportunity to pursue my dreams.

It enlightened me on the true meaning behind this career – the ability to impact the lives of many. Coming from a family with financial burdens, I saw the importance of financial planning and the need to prepare for rainy days, and I am committed to giving my clients my best.

Isa's Story
I came across Win Financial through a seminar they conducted in my University. It was through the session I was introduced to financial planning. In my growing up years, my father imparted to me the importance of saving for a rainy day. I decided to join the group’s summer internship to explore the financial services industry. It was an eye opener as I discovered financial planning encompasses risk protection, wealth accumulation and even legacy planning. This realization sparked my interest to become a licensed advisor even before I graduate. I am inspired by my leader Adriann who conducts his business with sincerity which aligns with my personal value of selflessness and integrity. I am not into sports, but I do enjoy running in the morning as it inspires me to start everyday right!

Vincent’s Story
After my ORD, I was doing part time sales in Grab till I received a call for an interview as a Financial Advisor. I am always keen to do sales as the remuneration is pegged to the results. However, doing insurance sales has never come to my mind. I was intrigued by the financial services business after the first session in Win Financial’s Office. I am a person who values friendship a lot and being an FSC allows me to build relationships through sound advice and customer servicing. I like the fact that once a client is sealed, he is a client for life. It took a while for me to clear my licensing papers and I was glad my manager Junxiong never gave up on me. I enjoy learning new things through reading and surfing the net.

Yew Sheng’s Story
Witnessing the growth and job satisfaction my cousin attained after she did a career switch from auditor to advisor, I was inspired to have a taste of the work by joining the Varsity Entrepreneur Internship (VEIN) Program under her Group. I was convinced of the career and ended up joining her team. In this line of work, I aim to change people’s perception of insurance by making a positive difference in their lives. Giving clients my best, I treat every appointment as though it is just catching up with a close friend, assuring them I will always be there in any time of need. I enjoy soccer a lot as it helps me keep fit while having fun with my friends.

Yvonne's story
After graduating from the University of Birmingham (SIM), I decided to become an FSC with Win Financial. Like some others, I was initially sceptical about this career, and my family was not fully supportive of my choice.

I strongly believe that with a great amount of effort, determination, and sincerity towards my clients, this career will certainly bring me what I want in life. I believe in providing the best of interests for my clients, like how I would do for myself and my loved ones. Financial planning, if done correctly, can lift burdens and free problems.

Zac's Story
Despite having studied Life Sciences, I did not envision myself to be working in a lab doing repetitive lab tests daily. I wanted more than what a corporate job could offer, a more fulfilling and holistic career where I can serve others and be a blessing to them. I was first introduced to the financial industry when I worked as a part-time personal assistant for a Senior FSC. It was then that I witnessed how proper financial planning can help others and prepare them for the future. I saw purpose in this career, and how it can impact lives. Hence, I became an FSC too! My greatest desire is to make a positive difference to everyone that I meet.
