Peer review:

I have been working closely with Zoë for over ten years and I never fail to be impressed with her professionalism and detailed knowledge of investments. She consistently provides an exceptional service to all clients focusing on their requirements in a flexible, confidential and responsive manner. Zoë takes immense pride in her work and this is evident by the client and intermediary base that she has built up and the clear enjoyment she finds in various roles. Perhaps one of the keys to her success is her strong desire to share her knowledge, she is always keen to educate clients that do not have wider investment experience in order that they can make informed decisions and really understand the options that are available to them.

In the dark suit, dominated world of Financial Services and Investment Management Zoë provides a refreshing injection of colour. Zoë brings a great depth and breadth of knowledge and experience covering Investment Management advice to both Private Clients and Family Offices. Zoë takes time to understand her client’s needs and objectives before providing advice and guidance to ensure the best outcome for the client. A pleasure to work with.

Zoe is an inspiration to women in finance everywhere. She is a successful entrepreneur, a financial whizz, and a thoroughly lovely person to deal with professionally. Her achievements, from being one of the first women on the floor of the LSE to making a monumental move from Guernsey to Dubai and starting a business from scratch are awe-inspiring, and she continues to blaze a trail through the local financial industry. Mabrouk!

Peer review:

Zoë’s genuine approach and her commitment to the well-being of her clients, combined with professionalism and strong business ethics, makes her stand out from the crowd when looking for guidance on your financial planning matters. Having the courage to uproot her life and a stable career spanning over thirty years, to launch and grow a successful business in a wholly new environment speaks volumes about Zoë’s determination and makes her a true inspiration to me and other professional women.

Peer review:

I worked with Zoe on a case which involved a comparison of Guernsey international financial centre with a European competitor for a specific query. Zoe responded very quickly, understood well what was required and then produced a very high-quality comparative analysis, with the assistance of Guernsey Finance. Zoe has also assisted in another case, involving investment for an expatriate based in the UAE, where she demonstrated strong knowledge of the issues and made sound recommendations. I would describe Zoe as being a consummate professional, who really does go out of her way to assist wherever she can.

Zoë has a talent for making difficult concepts easy to understand. She also instils trust in all who deal with her and has a genuinely altruistic approach to upskilling the women of Dubai so that their financial well-being is appropriately taken care of.
