    Certified Financial Planner (CFP®)

  • Most people think all financial planners are “certified”, but this isn’t true. Anyone can use the title “financial planner”. Only those who have fulfilled the certification and renewal requirements of CFP Board can display the CFP® certification trademarks which represent a high level of competency, ethics and professionalism. And because they are held to a fiduciary standard of care when providing financial planning services, a CFP® professional is required to act in your best interest. 

    That difference is a CFP® professional—backed by rigorous training—acting as a coach and counselor who can help incorporate all aspects of one’s finances into a personalized roadmap that inspires trust and confidence, today and tomorrow. 

    The Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct reflects the commitment that all CFP® professionals make to high standards of competency and ethics. The cornerstone of the Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct is a CFP® professional’s obligation to act as a fiduciary, and therefore, act in the best interests of the client at all times when providing financial advice.
