President and CEO
FP Canada
Leading the way when it comes to making the wealth management industry more transparent is Cary List, president and CEO of the recently rebranded FP Canada (formerly the Financial Planning Standards Board). The organization will continue setting and enforcing financial planning standards and certifying financial planners. It has also added a new division, the FP Canada Institute, which is dedicated to elevating the practice of financial planning.
“FP Canada is much more than just a new name,” List said when the announcement was made in April. “With a broader scope and a brand-new institute division, FP Canada creates a centralized professional body that supports all elements of the financial planning profession in an integrated way.”
