What Is a CFP® Professional?

When it comes to choosing a financial advisor, trust and expertise matter. That's why the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) designation is considered the gold standard in financial planning.

A CFP® professional has met rigorous education, examination, experience, and ethics requirements—and is committed to acting as a fiduciary, always putting your best interests first.

What sets a CFP® professional apart:
  • Comprehensive Knowledge – Covers a wide range of financial planning topics including retirement, investments, taxes, insurance, and estate planning.
  • Fiduciary Duty – CFP® professionals are held to the highest ethical standards and are required to act in your best interest at all times.
  • Experience-Based Guidance – To earn the designation, advisors must complete thousands of hours of hands-on financial planning experience.
  • Ongoing Commitment – Maintaining the CFP® certification requires continuous education to stay current with financial regulations and strategies.

Working with a CFP® professional means you're partnering with someone who has the training, accountability, and integrity to guide you with clarity and confidence—no matter where you are on your financial journey. Click the link below to learn more.

7An investment in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor’s ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of an exchange-traded fund (ETF) before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the ETF. To obtain a prospectus, contact your Financial Advisor or visit the ETF company’s website. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
