The CISI has reported that 80% of candidates passed the latest CISI Level 6 Advanced Financial Planning exam which leads to the UK’s highest Financial Planning certification.

A Financial Planner in Scotland and a trainee Financial Planner in West Yorkshire have become the first two to achieve the UK’s new highest level Financial Planning qualification.

Certified Financial Planner professionals in the UK are to offer consumers pro bono guidance on coping financially with the Coronavirus outbreak via a series of money guides.
