Great Eastern Financial Advisers (GEFA)’s first dedicated Career Seminar kicked off to much fanfare on 1 October.

In her opening address, GEFA CEO Jesslyn Tan spoke on the rising affluence and importance of financial planning. She shared about the 4 ‘P’s of GEFA – Parentage, Professional Consultants, Products and Partners. GEFA’s unique proposition of being an exclusive Financial Advisory firm with strong GE parentage and a member of the OCBC Group; coupled with its professional financial consultants, have given it a distinctive edge over our competitors.

Our OCBC Premier Banking partner Jonathan Koh further reinforced how this strategic partnership between the bank and GEFA provides customers access to a comprehensive suit of wealth management solutions. This collaboration also allows us to widen customer reach and provide a differentiated experience for affluent customers.

Senior Executive Manager Timothy Tan shared on how his dream to be the best in his field motivated him to excel in his profession and inspired the audience with insightful career anecdotes.

Guest speaker Dr Andrew Goh rounded up the session with his talk on MAD… how each of us has the ability to Make A Difference to the lives of others.

The overall message was clear. Pursue your dream for what may start just as a dream will eventually become the powerful force which drives you to distinction.
