Overwhelmed by insurance?
Let our financial advisors help.
Everywhere you turn, it feels like the cost of living is rising faster than you can catch up.
Medical expenses have skyrocketed, making the idea of unexpected hospital bills downright terrifying.
Raising a family comes with its own price tag, and even everyday necessities – like food and transportation – have become a juggling act in your budget.
And then there’s the future.
It’s not just about managing what’s in front of you today.
You know that life has a way of throwing curveballs:
- An illness that drains your savings.
- An accident that sidelines your income.
- Or the need to provide for loved ones when you’re no longer around.
These aren’t just “what-ifs.”
They’re real possibilities that could derail your financial plans if you’re not prepared.
You're not alone
Insurance should be your safety net, a way to protect yourself and your family when life takes an unexpected turn.
Do you:
- Cover all your bases, or are you overpaying for protection you don’t need?
- Have the right plans to ensure your family’s future is secure?
- Know how to compare insurers to get the best value for your money?
These are tough questions, and figuring out the answers on your own can feel overwhelming.
With so many policies, terms, and insurers to choose from, it’s hard to know if you’re making the right decision – or getting the best value.
That’s where we come in.

Meet our founder
Firdaus Syazwani, Founder
Hi there!
In 1999, my mother purchased what she thought was an endowment plan from an insurance agent, intending to gift me $20,000 when it matured.
She diligently paid premiums for 20 years, trusting that it was the right choice.
But when the policy matured, we discovered it wasn’t an endowment plan at all – it was a whole life policy with a sum assured of $20,000.
There was no payout, no savings component – just a profound sense of confusion and disappointment.
This experience taught me 2 important lessons.
First, my mother had been missold a policy, likely without a full understanding of what she was purchasing.
Second, this wasn’t unique to her – most don’t truly understand what they’re buying when it comes to insurance.
They often don’t know why they’re purchasing specific policies or how these policies fit into their financial plans.
It was this realisation that led to the creation of Dollar Bureau.
I didn’t want others to go through what my mother and I experienced – buying policies that didn’t suit their needs or align with their goals.
Mis-sold policies and unclear advice are far too common in the financial industry, leaving people locked into plans they don’t fully understand or, worse, plans they don’t even need.
Dollar Bureau exists to change that.
We strive to help individuals truly understand their financial options – what they’re purchasing, why they’re purchasing it, and how it fits into their overall financial plan.
For example, someone might say they need a critical illness insurance policy because they’ve read about it or were told it’s essential.
However, when our partnered financial advisors take the time to review their needs, they often find that what the individual really requires is a hospitalisation plan – something much more affordable and practical for someone without any existing health coverage.
This is the key difference with Dollar Bureau.
We partner with financial advisors who take a holistic approach to financial planning.
They don’t just focus on selling policies – they focus on understanding your unique life stage, financial responsibilities, and long-term goals.
They don’t provide cookie-cutter proposals; instead, they offer tailored advice that makes sense for your situation.
Every recommendation is designed not just to solve a perceived need but to align with your overall financial goals.
It’s not about selling the most expensive policy or offering the broadest coverage – it’s about finding the right fit for you, ensuring that you’re not overpaying for what you don’t need or missing critical coverage you do need.
Especially since a policy typically has commitment periods of over 20+ years, it’s worth spending extra time to view things holistically rather than modularly.

Frequently asked questions
How do you decide who to match me with?
It’s easy! Let us know what you’re looking for and if there are specific policies you’d like to compare. We will then analyse your request and will assign the best-suited specialist for you.
Can I just get a second opinion?
Yes! Many come to our financial advisors to get a second opinion on a policy that they’ve been recommended. If that policy is the best for you based on a holistic analysis, then you’re free to engage the financial advisor that recommended it to you.
What if I already have insurance?
No problem, our financial advisors can help you:
- Review your current coverage to see if there are any coverage gaps or over-insurance
- Identify ways to save on insurance premiums (Same coverage, cheaper policies)
- Seek opportunities to maximise the value of your insurance spend (Same premiums, better coverage)
Based on our advisor’s analyses, you’re free to take up their recommendation or maintain your current policies – no obligation!
Is this service free?
Dollar Bureau’s matching services are 100% free.
Does this cost more?
Our service doesn’t cost more because:
- Our matching service is free
- MAS doesn’t allow hidden or marking up of fees
- Premiums are the same as going directly to an insurer
In fact, many end up saving more as you are comparing multiple policies at once.
Does this take much time?
It’ll take a slightly longer time to understand your needs, but it’s important for holistic financial planning. If you’re going to be paying premiums for 20+ years, it’s worth taking some extra time to make sure you get the best one for yourself.
Also, we save you time if you’re planning holistically, as our financial advisors can obtain, compare, and recommend the best one for you. No need to repeat this process across multiple financial advisors.
What if I just want to get a policy?
If you already know what you want and would like to just quickly get a policy, our financial advisors can help too!
How many insurers can your advisors compare for me?
Our network of financial advisors collectively has 17+ insurers for you to choose from. They help you find and compare the best policy tailored for your needs.
Can your financial advisors review my existing insurance policies?
For sure! Find ways to reduce insurance premiums or get a better bang for your buck!
Must I purchase from one of your financial advisors?
Nope! Only purchase if you like the tailored proposals you receive and if you feel comfortable with your advisor.
There’s completely no pressure to purchase anything.
What if I don't like the proposals by my assigned financial advisor?
Here’s what you can do:
- Request for a new proposal from your assigned financial advisor.
- Request for a new financial advisor to be assigned to you.
Can you help foreigners?
They can usually help if:
- You’re working in Singapore
- Have a spouse working in Singapore
- Have a company incorporated in Singapore
- Have a Singapore bank account
