Are traditional, old-school stockbrokers becoming popular again, even though we’re now in a world of TikTok and modern trading apps like Tiger Brokers?

Technology has changed how we trade, invest, and get financial advice… but what happens to the roles that existed long before apps and instant news alerts? And could these roles actually thrive again in a digital-first world?

To help us unpack this surprising shift, we’re joined by two guests who sit on both ends of the old-meets-new spectrum:

Our Guests

• S Nallakaruppan (Nalla) — President of The Society of Remisiers, with 31 years of market experience, having lived through the Asian Financial Crisis, Dot-Com Crash, GFC, COVID, and more.
• Raymond Chin - Head of Agency at Tiger Brokers, leading the push for a new generation of investment reps trained for today’s digital landscape.

Tune in to hear:

• How a once-essential finance role almost disappeared — and why it might return
• Why younger investors don’t know this job exists… and why that could change
• The rise of “high-tech + high-touch” investing support
• What a modern investment representative really does (it’s not what you think)
• The surprising traits that make someone good at this career today
• Whether this profession could once again become one of the top earners

If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s still a future in traditional finance careers, or you’re curious about a path that lets you be your own boss and live in the markets every day, this is one episode you don’t want to skip.
