7What Is The Standard For Malpractice?
- One who holds himself out to the public as an
financial planner is required to have the degree
of skill and knowledge requisite to the calling.
If he neglects to procure the insurance or if the
policy is materially deficient or does not
provide the coverage he undertook to supply,
because of his failure to exercise the requisite
skill or diligence, he becomes liable to his
principal for the loss sustained thereby. - Ryder v. Lynch, 42 N.J. 465, 476 (1964)
8What It Means If Im A CFP?
- Principal 3 Competence
- A CFP professional shall offer advice only in
those areas which the CFP designee has
competence. In areas where the CFP professional
is not professionally competent, the CFP designee
shall seek the counsel of a qualified person
and/or refer clients to such parties.
9What It Means If Im A CFP?
- Principle 7 Diligence
- Enter a client engagement only after securing
sufficient info to be satisfied that - the relationship is warranted by individuals
needs/objectives - The CFP professional has the ability to either
provide requisite competent service or to involve
other professionals who can provide such services.
10What If Im Not A CFP?
- Duty Of Care
- You have an obligation,
- before conducting a transaction,
to conduct sufficient fact-finding
and needs analysis to
properly assess a clients circumstances, goals
and needs - Insurance Council Of British Columbia, Code Of
Conduct For Insurance Salespersons and Adjusters,
June 1999, p. 16

and away from transactions. - Cash holdings are stable at 5, with equities
dropping to 27 from 28 and fixed income
holdings falling to 23 from 28 last year. - Insurance is said to account for 2 of assets.
