Annie Chen. Producer. The Walt Disney Company SEA Pte. Limited

Diana has been my financial adviser for more than 16 years. Throughout the years, she has helped me build up my personal portfolio and fine-tune my policies to ensure I get a well-rounded coverage. Aside from being an astute financial adviser, Diana is very knowledgeable and is always able to answer my queries with easy to understand layman terms. She is very passionate about her job and regularly reaches out with updates and suggestions to improve my portfolio. I would gladly recommend Diana to anyone who is looking for a friendly, reliable and professional financial adviser who caters to your portfolio needs.

Candy Chan. Executive Secretary. GuocoLand

Diana was introduced to me by a friend a year ago. Diana is very professional in her work and had provided very valuable advice for my retirement planning. I have benefited from her professional and excellent services and will continue to seek her in every investment opportunity that arises.

Danny Chew. Senior Operations Executive. OUB Centre Limited

Diana has been a great financial adviser and friend for the past decade. Since the first time I met up with her for the first financial review, Diana has shown the commitment of looking for positive ways to better my coverage, financial growth and retirement needs. Other than the quarterly meetups to review my coverage, there are also the constant sharing of market changes and updates of new plans Prudential has to offer. In the years of providing her expertise, she has been showing her in-depth understanding of financial planning. Along with a good listening ear, she has been recommending products to address my concerns. Unlike other financial planners, Diana is not pushy and does not focus on selling policies. Thanks to her recommendations, I am able to increase my coverage for the possible emergencies one can face in life, better my expected financial status at retirement and set my mind at ease should I ever meet with an unexpected situation. I look forward to the many more decades to come with Diana as my financial adviser.
