Financial Planners will get a unique perspective on how to change clients’ perception of risk this week from an ex-professional Poker star, who has rubbed shoulders with some of Hollywood’s top talent.

The biggest Financial Planning event of the year is set to get underway this morning.

Global Financial Planning Standards Board CEO Noel Maye has revealed the organisation is planning a global consumer campaign to promote the benefits of Financial Planning as a way to help spur ambitious plans to increase the number of CFP professionals worldwide from 161,000 now to 250,000 by 2025.

Financial Planning firms gained three or four new ‘million pound clients’ as a result of Financial Planning Week this year, it was revealed this morning.
