Client Background
Shalima and Himanshu are working professionals based in Singapore, where they've built their life and plan to stay for the long term.
Their Financial Challenge
Before working with Mandar, their approach to wealth was property-centric. As Shalima puts it: "Initially, we were all about investing in properties."
Planning Process
Over the past year, Mandar helped them look beyond property to a broader range of instruments — introducing them to a range of ETFs and structuring a portfolio around two distinct goals: long-term growth and monthly passive income.
Outcome
A year on, the couple describes Mandar as responsive, knowledgeable, and never pushy — "passionate, but never pushy," in their words. Their perspective on wealth has genuinely shifted from a single-asset-class mindset to a diversified one, built around both growth and income, while they continue to make Singapore their long-term home.
