The body, in its 10th anniversary year and which owns the international Certified Financial Planner certification, met in Turkey earlier this month to discuss various goals it hopes to achieve up to 2016 and beyond.
The board of directors and guests discussed a governance review to support FPSB strategy and operations for the next 10-20 years and broadening its research agenda to include public attitudes toward Financial Planning.
Further points for discussion were creating a network-wide strategy to increase public awareness of CFP certification and how to engage financial services firms using data from the global FPSB/Comparator Firm Research.

Steve Helmich, FPSB board chairman, said the organisation has "reaffirmed our commitment to the long-term strategy and outlined a picture of success through to 2016".
He said: "I remain impressed with the momentum and commitment of FPSB's board, member organisations and strategic partners in tackling the complex issues required for us to successfully lead the Financial Planning profession and ensure that the public has control of their financial lives through access to competent and ethical Financial Planners."
After its semi-annual meeting, FPSB partnered with The Association of Capital Market Intermediary Institutions of Turkey to introduce Financial Planning and CFP certification to the Turkish market at a seminar.
Noel Maye, FPSB chief executive, said: "Turkey is one of FPSB's priority markets to establish a CFP certification programme and support the development of Financial Planning as a profession."
