Most people think that all financial advisors are certified, but this isn't true. Only those - like Bill Ravotti - who have fulfilled the certification and renewal requirements of the CFP Board can display the CFP certification marks. When selecting a financial advisor, you need to feel confident that the person you choose to help you plan for your future is competent and ethical. The CFP certification confirms that your financial advisor, like Bill Ravotti, has met the requirements for the right to use the CFP certification marks.

When you work with Bill Ravotti, you are the focus of the financial relationship and your needs drive Bills recommendations. CFP practitioners follow certain standards when providing financial advice. This broad-based approach to financial advice helps distinguish financial practitioners like Bill Ravotti from other professional advisors who typically focus on only one area of a person's financial life.

As more people call themselves financial advisors, finding the right professional to address your financial needs isn't always easy. It's important to take your time when choosing a financial advisor, and before making a decision, become familiar with the advisor's business style and understand the level of services he or she provides.

Before you agree to receive financial planning services, please see complete information and disclosures in the NMIS Financial Planning Brochure (also called the ADV brochure) and review the terms of the NMIS Planning Engagement Agreement. These may be obtained from Bill Ravotti.
