 The
Financial Planning Association is the membership association for nearly
30,000 CFPTM professionals, financial planners, specialists and
organizations dedicated to advancing the financial planning process. On
January 1, 2000, members of the International Association for Financial
Planning (IAFP) and the Institute of Certified Financial Planners (ICFP)
