OUR UNWAVERING REQUIREMENTS TOWARD ETHICAL STANDARDS

CMSSA is devoted to implementing and enforcing ethical standards that are beneficial for the public. As a part of DSFP certification, all certified professionals must adhere to the rigorous regulations described in the CMSSA Code of Ethics. Furthermore, by releasing information about any disciplinary action taken through this code and standard enforcement process, CMSSA sets its DSFP credential apart from other financial certifications available today.

CODE OF ETHICS ➡️

SIGN THE ETHICS DECLARATION


To fulfill the ethics requirement for the DSFP certification, candidates must complete the Application for DSFP Certification that contains the Ethics Declaration. Based on this application, we'll conduct a background check, apply the Fitness Standards and inform you when you've completed the ethics requirement.

ENFORCEMENT

The CMSSA takes a strict stance against any violation of the Code of Ethics by DSFP professionals, and makes it known to the public when appropriate. This enforcement process differentiates DSFP certification from other credentials or designations in the financial planning industry.


At CMSSA, we are devoted to upholding a disciplinary process that is both transparent and equitable for members whose conduct is being examined. Our established protocol for addressing accusations of misconduct ensures that the public has trust in our enforcement procedures.
