A wide range of professional affiliations support our credentials
At TABR Capital Management, our professional affiliations speak for themselves. TABR’s principals are members of many esteemed associations in the financial planning profession, and hold top credentials bestowed on only professionals who have demonstrated extensive knowledge and experience in their areas of expertise.
CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professional
www.cfp.net
Most people think that all financial planners are certified. But while anyone can claim to be a financial planner, only those who have fulfilled the certification and renewal requirements of the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) Board of Standards can display the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ mark of distinction. This certification ensures that only those who have met CFP® requirements have the right to identify themselves as CFP®professionals. CFP® practitioners agree to abide by the CFP® Board’s Code of Ethics and Professional Responsibility, which requires them to act fairly and diligently when providing financial planning services, putting the client’s interests first.
