Choosing the IFP as your accredited body

The IFP has been formally approved by the Financial Services Authority (FSA), as an accredited body.This means that we're ideally placed to support the needs of Financial Planners and registered advisers in the Financial Planning profession.

From February 2012 IFP will issue to those members who comply with the RDR qualifications, gap fill and CPD requirements their Statement of Professional Standing (SPS). This service will be offered as part of your ongoing membership renewal process and there will be no additional fee for issuing SPS' to IFP members, over and above your usual IFP membership fees. 

We're supporting members through their gap-fill activities by providing a range of accredited learning opportunities and activities that meet the learning outcomes under the RDR. Members also have access to IFP's CPD Online Platform, which simplifies the recording and reporting of CPD activities.
