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!

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.

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!
