As they dedicate their love and lives to their households and make constant sacrifices for their family’s & children’s well-being, mothers never retire. For all these, moms deserve more thoughts besides during Mother’s Day. But should mothers also think about planning their own retirement — financially speaking?

Christine Tiong. Accountant.

Diana has been my friend since we were in secondary school. I’ve seen her grow from being a rookie to the successful financial consultant she is today. Through it all, we have seen each other through major life events and she has always been there for me and providing help and support. I am glad that she was able to help me with my financial planning needs according to my budget and always thinking of my welfare at heart. Looking forward to more professional advice and services from her in the future.

Aimran Alkaff. Sales Manager - Marine. Rolls Royce Power System

I have worked with Diana since my university days and since then she has been very diligent and professional in handling my plans. She has helped me build up a sizeable portfolio over the last 17 years which I am pleasantly satisfied with. Diana is constantly making effort to improve my portfolios. And she is ever willing to apply her deep knowledge and experience to suggest alternatives to make my money work better for me.

Bernadine Dorett. Teacher. Ministry of Education

I have known Diana since 2007 first as an insurance agent and later as a friend. She is a skilled financial advisor. She is well versed in her field and gives good advice. She keeps herself updated on market trends and has good knowledge of the insurance products. She gives me objective information in layman’s terms to make smart decisions that help me feel at ease. She also regularly reviews my policies with me and helps me to keep track of them. She is aware of my financial commitments and goals and recommends policies that benefit my family and me in the long run. I trust her as my financial advisor and would readily recommend her services to my relatives and friends.

Elissa Chia. Senior Manager, Communications. Higher Education Sector.

Diana puts her best foot forward when advising my financial needs and recommending viable solutions. She is generous with her time and commits herself to ensure I understood the various products and my portfolio. Diana is up-to-date with Singapore public policies, and provides good advice. She understands my liabilities and asks the right questions in order for me to derive at my own conclusion. She is an asset, in all sense of the word!

Erwin Wong. Supply Chain Planner.

I've been friends with Diana since the early 2000s, and she reached out to assist in planning for my financial needs when I entered the workforce. All through the stations of my life, Diana has offered sound advice and recommendations in making financial plans for my present and future. She has done so with her wealth of skills, experiences and expertise gained in the industry. Her accolades are a testament to her talent, ability and hard work put in as a financial consultant, but when we meet to catch up on life or to do regular financial reviews, we do so as long-time friends. This makes the friendship even more heartwarming, because Diana is someone that I would trust this important aspect of my life with.

Danny Chew. Senior Operations Executive. OUB Centre Limited

Diana has been a great financial adviser and friend for the past decade. Since the first time I met up with her for the first financial review, Diana has shown the commitment of looking for positive ways to better my coverage, financial growth and retirement needs. Other than the quarterly meetups to review my coverage, there are also the constant sharing of market changes and updates of new plans Prudential has to offer. In the years of providing her expertise, she has been showing her in-depth understanding of financial planning. Along with a good listening ear, she has been recommending products to address my concerns. Unlike other financial planners, Diana is not pushy and does not focus on selling policies. Thanks to her recommendations, I am able to increase my coverage for the possible emergencies one can face in life, better my expected financial status at retirement and set my mind at ease should I ever meet with an unexpected situation. I look forward to the many more decades to come with Diana as my financial adviser.
