A financial plan can provide a comprehensive roadmap to help you meet your goals after a thorough evaluation of your current financial position. Many personal factors (i.e., birth of a child, new job, inheritance, new home purchase, retirement, marriage/divorce); or economic factors (i.e., stock market volatility, tax law changes, political/economic environment changes) could cause your current financial position to change.

What Is a CFP® Professional?
A CFP® certificant is a credentialed financial professional held to strict ethical and performance standards. According to the CFP® Board, CFP® professionals “are trained to help you develop a comprehensive strategy to reach your short- and long-term financial goals … from planning for retirement to saving for college.”
In order to earn this coveted credential, every prospective CFP® certificant must have at least 4,000 hours of financial planning experience and meet additional initial certification requirements in four main categories. Only those who meet these rigorous requirements can call themselves CFP® professionals.
