The CFP Board promotes its certificants as the “most trusted” financial professionals and directs consumers to its LetsMakeAPlan.org search tool. However, a Financial Planning analysis reveals a significant gap between the Board’s records and those maintained by FINRA’s BrokerCheck database.
Jim, Stephany and the whole team were a God send. We felt like we were put into a situation where we had no advocate. Jim’s team came in with a strong, well laid out strategy on how to get our story heard. Where our outside compliance company had no ability to help, our Broker Dealer was impenitent, and the regulators were aggressive pursuing vague rules, Jim came like a barricade against an assault we did not understand. Though you pay member dues to be affiliated with FINRA and a B/D, you have no voice. The only thing that is truly heard in this un-level playing field is a bulldog’s bark like Jim’s. I would encourage anyone to call Jim and his team to find a real ally in the tough and complicated world of securities regulation. They are truly the best.
