Ruth Batson and Kathy Ireland For Worldwide Business On Sunday January 24 2016 Ruth Batson CEO of the American Gem Society and the AGS Laboratories was interviewed on Fox Business Network and Bloomberg International. During the interview Ms. Batson explained the advantages consumers experience when they purchase diamonds from AGS retailers and the importance of asking for an AGS Laboratories diamond grading report. The American Gem Society has been protecting consumers for over 80 years by credentialing jewelry retailers and suppliers. When a consumer purchases a diamond from a credentialed AGS retailer he or she has the assurance that theyve just engaged in an ethical transaction. AGS members are required to practice the highest possible standards regarding the education of their employees diamond grading and ethical business practices or risk losing their membership. In 1996 the AGS saw a need for a diamond-grading laboratory that shared their mission and created AGS Laboratories. Today AGS Laboratories is the only nonprofit diamond- grading laboratory with the mission of consumer protection and is known throughout the industry as the laboratory with the highest standards of grading practices. Anytime you make a major purchase you want to be sure that youre getting your moneys worth added JL Haber Vice President of Programming for Worldwide Business with kathy ireland .

Its good to know that AGS is there to help protect consumers and were proud to feature them on our show. Ruth Batson and Kathy Ireland
