In This Expensive And Stressful Environment
The cost and complexity of living comfortably in Singapore is rising at an alarming rate. I work with students, fresh graduates and their parents to optimise their financial portfolios — unlocking both time and cash flow to focus on what matters most.
The Reality
Singapore's cost of living is rising at an alarming rate. Between inflation, rising property costs, and an increasingly complex financial landscape, most people find themselves working harder but feeling further behind. Good financial planning isn't a luxury reserved for the wealthy — it's a tool that should work for everyone, at every stage of life.
About Basil Koh
Basil has always had a passion for financial planning and helping those around him. Motivated by his desire to help those around him attain a higher level of financial literacy, he has met over 200 individuals to do customised planning and is currently serving over 60 clients.
He is one of the youngest Associate Directors in AIA Financial Advisers — and the 2nd fastest to be promoted to that rank in the firm's history. A Qualifying Member of the Million Dollar Round Table and Member of the AIAFA Premier Prestige Titanium Club 2026, Basil brings elite-tier credentials to every client engagement.
The Method
Basil uses two proprietary tools with every client — a bespoke financial system built to give you clarity, direction, and a plan that's genuinely yours, not a generic product pitch.
Tool 01
A proprietary goal-setting framework that maps your FIRE number — exactly how much you need to retire comfortably, and the monthly contributions required to get there 5–10 years earlier than you thought possible.
Tool 02
A detailed cash flow map that shows exactly where your money goes, where it should go, and what becomes possible once it's optimised. Most clients discover untapped assets within the very first session.
Areas of Expertise
To help you take ownership of your wealth and plan your financial life — with a complete picture, not a piecemeal product-by-product approach.

To live a financially free life through structured, goal-based investing.
To ensure that you live a life that outlives you — with income that continues long after you stop working.

To ensure that your assets are passed down to your loved ones exactly as you intend — with minimal friction and maximum certainty.

Institute of Banking & Finance SingaporeWhat Clients Say

Basil took the time to understand my goals before recommending anything. He mapped out my entire cash flow and showed me exactly where I stood — something no other advisor had done. I left with a clear plan, not just products.

I came in sceptical about financial planning at my age. Basil's Financial Freedom Calculator showed me that starting at 23 could mean retiring at 55. That shifted my entire perspective on what's possible.

What stood out was Basil's patience. He explained every product, every number, every gap in my portfolio. My family now has proper coverage and I have a real investment roadmap — not just a piece of paper.

I've spoken to other advisors but Basil's approach is genuinely different. He focuses on your goals first — never on commission. The cash flow analysis he ran for me was eye-opening.

Basil helped me realise I had a significant gap in my retirement planning that I'd been ignoring. He showed me how to close it without drastically changing my lifestyle. That level of clarity is genuinely rare.

As a student I wasn't sure financial planning was relevant for me yet. Basil showed me how starting now versus five years later would make a six-figure difference. It was the most important meeting I'd had all year.
