What is the RFC Designation?

IARFC INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REGISTERED FINANCIAL CONSULTANTS

The primary purpose of the IARFC is to provide the public with a convenient access to a pool of well-qualified practitioners from which to choose a personal financial advisor. It is the only professional organization that requires all of its members to meet and document seven stringent requirements of education, experience, examination, integrity, licensing, ethics and a significant amount of continuing professional education.

Each year the RFC must complete a minimum of 40 units (hours) of professional continuing education. This includes college courses, educational symposiums, credentialing courses, distance learning programs and practitioner conferences.

The IARFC removes the designation from anyone who fails to maintain proficiency through substantial continuing education, or who betrays the public’s trust by failing to live up to its Code of Ethics or by having a professional license revoked or suspended for misconduct or any reason. All members are listed on our web site and public inquirers may obtain a list of designation holders, including complete contact information at: www.iarfc.org
