KHOO YONG GUAN

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of the intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the beauty in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that one life has breathed easier because you lived here. This is to have succeeded.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

I chose financial consulting as my career because it offers me a greater sense of purpose and autonomy over time. From the beginning, my goal has been to become a leader who creates a much larger impact and helps revolutionize the industry.

For me, service is always a priority. My main source of motivation comes from my clients and associates, who trust my advice and support me in everything I do. Their trust fuels my commitment to serving them, and it’s this sense of service that keeps me driven in the industry.

I’ve learned a great deal about the importance of long-term thinking, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic. As a leader, I had to adapt quickly to unexpected disruptions, and the experience taught me how crucial it is to plan ahead. Before the pandemic, face-to-face interactions were essential to how I conducted business. However, as my team and client base grew, I recognized the need to leverage communication technologies. This shift allowed me to maintain strong connections with my clients and ensure that information was passed down effectively.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been witnessing the growth of my associates—not just professionally, but also in their personal character. Seeing their development and witnessing their acts of service is incredibly fulfilling. To me, success in others is the true mark of good leadership, and that is the most satisfying achievement I could ask for as a leader.

TESTIMONIALS

MR DANIEL CHER, BOARD DIRECTOR, TCC LTD

Yong Guan has been very focused & proficient in identifying & meeting his clients’ financial requirements. A young professional with a mature outlook on life, he is kind and patient, with a focus to do good for the less privileged in the community.

COLLINS ABRAHAM, FORECAST ANALYST, PROCTER & GAMBLE

Michael is very clear and direct on his proposals which better enables me to make the right decisions. He also goes the extra mile to consolidate the client’s plan into one that is manageable by a non-expert.

LIM YONG KANG, CHAIRMAN, A&ONE PRECISION ENGINEERING PTE LTD

Guan is a very dedicated and knowledgeable financial planner. I can always count on him for my personal and business financial matters.

MR NING YOU NAN, FOUNDER AND MANAGING DIRECTOR, DESWOOD PTE LTD

Guan has helped me tremendously with my estate planning. He is very clear with his analysis and provides practical solutions to my problems

MS CHOO WAN CHING, MANAGEMENT CONSULTANT, ACCENTURE

To plan out what I need, Guan took time out to fully understand my current life priorities. Not only did he understand my financial situation, he also takes into consideration my personal and family circumstances before recommending plans that suit me the most.

Guan goes an extra step to care for his clients and lent his support to my family in times of need. He has never hesitated to help whenever we asked, as long as it’s within his means. I am truly grateful to find a friend and advisor that I trust.
