Ben Rouse formed Rouse and Company (now Rouse Limited) in 1992, with the company's administrative headquarters in Newport, on the Isle of Wight. Having trained as a broker from 1989 Ben came into contact with many people, both private individuals and corporate clients, who emphasised the requirement for an independent and tailor-made financial advisory service that could be provided on a long-term ongoing basis - a "getting to know you" process which would assure the client with a regular contact with whom to discuss financial matters confidentially through a lifetime's requirements.

Our small and friendly team at Rouse Limited shares the same vision and sense of good service and has developed complementary skills to deliver a superior information-based support base to our clients. Everyone in the business has a stake in the success of the company and is thus motivated to seek constant improvements in service and to update product knowledge on a regular basis.

Since first trading in 1992 the company has grown rapidly. Our success is testimony to our commitment to excellence. We have always adopted a progressive approach, with emphasis on continual training and development of all our employees and the introduction of enhanced technology at every stage of the way.

Knowledge empowers us to offer the best advice to our clients. Our advisors all work towards their Diploma in Financial Planning Certificate qualifications. Very few advisors within the industry possess these higher qualifications.

The above approach has helped to sustain our growth without interruption to client service.

A happy team is after all a healthy team providing stability within the company and consistency of service to our clients.
