As trusted advisers to affluent clients for 25 years this year, our wealth management philosophy of making ikigai decisions before money decisions is grounded in real-world experience managing more than S$1.7 billion of our clients’ hard-earned assets.

In this week’s Money Wisdom episode, we continue our ‘The Brain Behind’ series, where our co-host and Associate Adviser, Sudhan, speaks with our CEO, Christopher, about his latest Business Times article, 'Before You Rush Into LRIS, Understand How CPF Really Works.'

In this conversation, Christopher unpacks the thinking behind the upcoming Lifetime Retirement Investment Scheme (LRIS) and why, despite its good intentions, implementation may not be as straightforward as it seems. They also explore an important question: should everyone invest their CPF at all? In a world increasingly focused on optimisation, this episode offers an important reminder that good intentions do not always lead to good outcomes.

For listeners who realise they may need to first strengthen the 3Cs of financial security, particularly Coverage Management, our sister company, Havend, provides a safe space to seek insurance advice without any pressure selling.
