Trusted Financial Practitioner (TrFP™) Awards

Introducing the prestigious Trusted Financial Practitioner (TrFP™) Awards!

In the dynamic landscape of financial services, trust and quality are paramount. The Insurance and Financial Practitioners Association of Singapore (IFPAS) recognizes this critical need and is proud to unveil the Trusted Financial Practitioner (TrFP™) Awards, setting a new standard of excellence and professionalism for qualified Financial Consultants.

The TrFP™ Award stands out from conventional recognitions by aligning closely with regulatory bodies in Singapore, emphasizing the essential elements of trustworthiness and high standards upheld by the industry. With a rigorous selection process, the TrFP™ Award isn’t solely about production metrics like first-year commission. Instead, it holistically evaluates candidates based on a range of criteria designed to ensure exceptional service and ethical conduct.

What truly distinguishes the TrFP™ Award is the endorsement it requires from industry leaders. Recommendations by the awardees’ company heads or chief-level officers add a layer of validation, attesting not only to their performance but also to their character and integrity. Additionally, testimonials from clients serve as a testament to the positive impact and trust these Financial Consultants have established.

About

Continuous learning and professional development are core tenets of the TrFP™ Award. Awardees are expected to continually upgrade their knowledge and skills, ensuring they remain at the forefront of industry trends and are well-equipped to provide clients with expert guidance and tailored solutions.

The TrFP™ Award isn’t just about recognition; it’s a commitment to excellence, integrity, and client-centricity. IFPAS is proud to launch this initiative, setting a benchmark for trusted financial practitioners who prioritize the long-term financial well-being and trust of their clients above all else.
