medium · Certified Financial Planner General Principles
Yuen is a CFP® professional who describes her practice as fee-only. She receives only assets-under-management fees from her clients. Her brother, a licensed insurance agent, operates a separate agency that receives commissions for policies referred by Yuen. Yuen receives no direct compensation from these referrals.
Is Yuen's compensation representation accurate?
- Yes, because Yuen herself receives no sales-related compensation and maintains a separate business entity.
- No, because a related party receives sales-related compensation in connection with her professional services.
- Yes, provided she discloses the familial relationship and the fact that her brother receives commissions.
- No, because assets-under-management fees are considered a form of sales-related compensation under the Standards.
