The CFP Board announced a wide array of new enforcement activities, which includes spending $5 million to conduct background checks on all CFP professionals. This move comes after a task force found “significant failures in the execution of the CFP Board’s enforcement program[.]” Additionally, a July 2019 story in The Wall Street Journal detailed how the CFP Board website failed to inform users about past disciplinary issues for CFP professionals. The Wall Street Journal found that more than 5,000 advisors who were listed on the CFP Board website as having a clean disciplinary record actually had a disciplinary history.
It was really fun seeing you fight for us. You have an amazing way of thinking out of the box.
