A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As we embrace the new year, it may help to remember that the turning of the year doesn’t call for grand plans or perfect routines. Instead, it invites calm, adaptability, and trust in small, consistent steps. The collection of articles gathered here speak about the value of steadiness over speed, flexibility over force, and provides a quiet assurance to just keep going—even without clarity.

Jess Liu. Executive Director, Private Bank Team Leader

My trusted financial advisor Ruth Tan has been an invaluable asset to my financial stability and peace of mind. Her expert guidance in both insurance and financial planning, coupled with her exceptional follow-up service, has not only protected my assets but also helped me achieve my long-term financial goals. I can't recommend Ruth highly enough for her unwavering dedication and responsive support.

Crystalbel Foo. Public Service Officer

Ruth has an excellent work ethic and always goes the extra mile for her clients — I had spent close to a year looking for a Financial Consultant who could address my concerns before I met Ruth! Would definitely recommend her to everyone looking for a Financial Consultant (and friend) whom you can plan your life milestones with.

Dr Michelle Kam. Ministry of Health

I was introduced to Ruth when I wanted to know more about insurance policies. The first meeting with her was very educational and made me aware of the blind spots in managing my finances and planning for the future. She has been really patient in explaining all the basics of insurance and financial planning in a very clear and concise way that is easy for the layman to understand. Her advice is tailored to meet my needs and she goes above and beyond to help every step of the way. She is quick to follow up on any questions that I have and is always just a text away. I’ll definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help with financial planning.

Lisa

Ruth has been my consultant for years now. Although I met her by chance, I am happy for that! I feel that she genuinely cares about and wants to make a real connection with her client. She would listen to my concerns before trying to provide a solution. She is patient in explaining and finding middle ground between minimising my future risk and ensuring my comfort and confidence on the plan. I also appreciate that she gives her client enough space and time to think and consider about the financial plan throughout the process. Thanks Ruth!

Joann Ong. Manager

I like that Ruth is genuine, honest and patient. She doesn’t hard sell, but instead she suggests the best possible plans that cater to my needs. She is very precise in her presentation and is always able to breakdown complex topics into simplified conversation. I would recommend her to my family and friends.

Evon Lim

Ruth IS a superwoman!! Dedicated to her job, wants to help people, and always giving her best to BBGen. It's tough as a working mum and to be balanced (in all aspects is even harder.) I knew her as the yogi and barre instructor from 4-5 years back. I love her choice of music and her effort in ensuring her students are having fun. She is a go-getter.
