About the Financial Planning Association

As the Anasazi Indians looked out at the growth in the Valley below, so FPA oversees the future with exciting new strategies for the next millennium.

On January 1, 2000, the Financial Planning Association (FPA) opened its doors as the new membership association for nearly 30,000 financial planners, allied professionals and organizations that champion the financial planning process. Created by the unification of the International Association for Financial Planning (IAFP) and the Institute of Certified Financial Planners (ICFP), FPA is the strongest collective voice of financial planning in the history of the profession.
