SEC Okays CFP Board’s Request to Dig into Applicants’ Backgrounds

Posted by William Byrnes on August 24, 2011


Cerftified Financial Planners (“CFPs”) and CFP applicants can longer hide their discplinary history behind the shield of client confidentiality. At the request of the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. (“CFP Board”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a no action letter that gives brokers and advisors unlimited discretion to share customer complaint information with the Board without fear of reprisal from the SEC. The no action letter eradicates advisors’ ability to assert client confidentiality as a justification for not disclosing customer complaint information to the CFP, giving the Board free-reign to scour members’ backgrounds.

SEC Okays CFP Board’s Request to Dig into Applicants’ Backgrounds

Certified Financial Planners (“CFPs”) and CFP applicants can no longer hide their disciplinary histories from the CFP Board under the shield of client confidentiality. At the request of the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. (“CFP Board”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a no action letter that gives brokers and advisors the  to share customer complaint information with the Board without fear of reprisal from the SEC. The no action letter removes advisors’ ability to maintain client confidentiality as a justification for not disclosing customer complaint information to the CFP, giving the Board free-reign to scour members’ backgrounds.

What impact will this heightened need for disclosure have on the advisor- client relationship?
