Why Choose a Wellspring CFP® Professional?

Most people think all financial planners are “certified,” but this isn’t true. Just about anyone can use the title “financial planner.” CFP® Board benefits the public by independently certifying financial planners. Although CFP® Board does not guarantee their work, CFP® professionals have met rigorous qualifications for financial planning. Only those who have fulfilled CFP® Board’s rigorous requirements can call themselves a CFP® professional.

As part of their certification, CFP® professionals commit to high ethical standards. What’s more, a CFP® professional must acquire several years of experience related to delivering financial planning services to clients and pass the comprehensive CFP® Certification Exam before they can call themselves a CFP® professional.
