Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I work with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) professional?

CFP® professionals take a holistic, personalized approach to bring all the pieces of your financial life together. As part of the CFP® certification, CFP® professionals also have made a commitment to the CFP board to act as a fiduciary when providing financial advice to a client. This means they have agreed to put your best interests first, so they can provide you confidence today and a secure tomorrow.

Why should I work with a Certified Private Wealth Advisor® (CPWA®) professional?

High-net-worth clients have unique needs when it comes to financial planning. A lot of advisors consider themselves wealth managers, but only Certified Private Wealth Advisor® (CPWA®) professionals possess advanced expertise in the wealth management content, strategies, and applied concepts that help better-serve high-net-worth clients.

Candidates who earn the certification learn to identify and analyze challenges high-net-worth individuals face, and understand how to develop specific strategies to minimize taxes, monetize and protect assets, maximize growth, and transfer wealth. During the certification process, CPWA candidates gain a specialized skillset geared toward the lifecycle of wealth: accumulation, preservation, and distribution.
