TUNE IN AND TUNE UP
YOUR FINANCIAL PLANS
CFP Professionals Hit the Airwaves this January/February

Also available for other media interview/news talk opportunities

Stepping forward into a brand new year, Financial Planners Standards Council (FPSC) invites Canadians to tune in and tune up their financial plans. CFP (Certified Financial Planner) professionals will be hitting the airwaves to offer advice and answer questions on financial planning, retirement savings, personal taxes, life insurance, education savings plans, estate planning - and more.

Over the course of the next 8 weeks (Saturdays/Sundays) more than 30 CFP professionals will participate in live radio phone-in talk shows in Ottawa (CFRA), Toronto (Mojo) and Vancouver (CFUN). These and other CFP professionals are available for additional media interviews and opportunities throughout Canada.

In addition to offering expertise in the financial planning process, many from this roster of CFP professionals provide specialized areas of service and advice. Examples include: life & financial transition planning (e.g. divorce, death of spouse, career change, etc.); charitable giving, tax issues - and more.

Internationally recognized, the CFP designation represents the highest standard in financial planning. In absence of regulation in most provinces, the CFP designation is the mark - enforced and regulated in Canada by FPSC - that distinguishes professionals who are trained and are competent in the delivery of financial planning advice and service.

Financial Planners Standards Council (FPSC), established in 1995, is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to benefiting Canadians and the financial planning profession by establishing and enforcing education, examination, experience and ethics requirements for individuals who choose to earn the CFP designation. Currently, there are almost 16,000 planners licensed to use the CFP marks in Canada and approximately 80,000 CFP professionals in 17 countries around the world. See www.cfp-ca.org for further information.
