The Value of CFP Certification

CFP certification benefits consumers, practitioners and financial services firms in a variety of ways.

CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professionals are trusted financial professionals who work with individuals and families to develop practical, easy-to-understand solutions for every stage of life. FPSB Ltd.’s research with more than 19,000 consumers worldwide showed:

Those who work with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional feel more strongly confident about their financial situation than those managing their own finances or working with a different type of financial adviser.

Consumers who have a written, comprehensive plan are nearly three times more likely to feel strongly confident about achieving their life goals.

CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professionals meet initial and ongoing education, experience and professional development requirements, pass a rigorous exam that assesses competency, and adhere to a code of ethics, pledging to provide financial planning in the interests of clients and with the highest ethical and professional standards.
