Testimonials and Referral Notes

View the full list

Catherine Lim. Key Accounts Manager

I have known Ruth for years, from a colleague to a dear friend. During her 5-year tenure in the MNC we worked together, she had changed several bosses and almost every time that happened, she would be given a different portfolio to handle. Each time she saw it as an opportunity to grow instead of dwelling in self-pity how challenging the role was or how established she had been in the current role. When I knew she became a Financial Consultant and asked if she could review my plans, she agreed immediately. She is someone I trust and she has my best interest at heart. Since then, she has been constantly updating me on plans or investments that might interest me. Ruth is quick to respond and will always give sound advice on financial related issues. Call Ruth now. You won't regret.

Najiah Binte Ramlee. Public Service Officer

Ruth is so bubbly and positive, it’s always a joy to meet her. But seriously, she has been a great help especially with my life insurance. Here, she has proven herself to be someone who goes the distance to help make sure the coverage is what you need or want, especially for me with existing conditions - and that’s rare to find. Even if it’s just a chat to find out more, she’s more than happy to share her knowledge so do reach out to her!

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.

Jerome Koay

Ruth was my ex-colleague on the same team many years ago. We reconnected when I found out she had joined Prudential and I needed some help with reassessing my financial goals and status. Ruth is professional, reliable, dedicated and eternally upbeat. She is also always empathetic and takes time to understand the financial goals I want to achieve and matches the different financial tools available with a high level of professionalism. If you are looking for someone who is here for the long haul and someone who takes time to understand your needs and helps you to achieve your goals, I would definitely say that Ruth is the person to go to. Wishing her all the best success!

Julie Wulandari. Nurse

For someone so small, she is BIG on: Responsibility Understanding Trust Helpfulness Ruth is patient and sincere in wanting to help me plan for my future, but also understanding my needs for the present. Most importantly, the warmth she exudes assures me that I can rely on her if ever I need help. I definitely made the right decision with 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.
