Sean Ong
Managing Partner
Sean Ong has been an adviser since 2004 and his career milestones have included positions within OCBC Bank as well as multinational companies such as PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and a leading life insurer. He joined IPP with the belief that, should unfortunate events occur, his clients can rest assured that their loved ones are taken care of and, through the best suite of products, that they can enjoy a comfortable retirement.
In addition to mentoring his team, Sean gives public talks at local universities, country clubs, libraries, the Central Provident Fund (CPF) Board and the Subordinate Courts of Singapore, and has been featured in the media. He has also shared his knowledge in his book, “Mend Your Socks!”, the proceeds of which were given to charity. As a keen advocate of philanthropic causes, Sean raised over $13,000 in sponsorship in 2012 for a children’s charity in Singapore by running 1,000 km over 87 days.
Sean holds a Bachelor of Accountancy degree. He is a Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC), a Master Practitioner in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and a Certified Life Coach under the International Coach Federation.
