 
Financial Planning Standards Board Ltd. (FPSB)
is a nonprofit association
that manages, develops and operates certification, education and related
programs for financial planning organizations so that they may benefit
and protect the global community by establishing, upholding and promoting
worldwide professional standards in personal financial planning. FPSB’s
commitment to excellence is represented by the marks of professional distinction
- CFP®, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® and 
Due to the phenomenal growth in the number of CFP® professionals outside
the United States in the past decade, US-based Certified Financial Planner
Board of Standards and the nonprofit associations that administer the CFP®
certification program outside the U.S. established FPSB. FPSB works in
conjunction with its members to develop and promote rigorous international
competency, ethics and professional practice standards for CFP® professionals
in member countries/regions to ensure that consumers looking for qualified
personal financial planners understand and value CFP® certification. The
needs of consumers of personal financial planning guide FPSB’s activities.
We are committed to working through our member network to establish relationships
with regulators, consumer advocates, educators, employers, trade associations
and other standards-setting bodies so that personal financial planning
can emerge as a distinct globally-recognized profession that will benefit
the global community.
