The association represents the interests of its members by direct letters, position papers, position statements and meetings with political decision-makers, in particular with members of the German Bundestag. The aim is to strengthen consumer protection by promoting market transparency in the capital market as well as in the cost and performance behaviour of institutional providers and commercial intermediaries and by actively using the independent financial planner's professional image to provide his clients with advice free of commission interest against remuneration.
Der Verband vertritt die Interessen seiner Mitglieder durch direkte Anschreiben, Positionspapiere, Stellungsnahmen und Treffen mit politischen Entscheidungsträgern, insbesondere mit Mitgliedern des Deutschen Bundestages. Ziel ist es, den Verbraucherschutz zu stärken, indem wir Markttransparenz im Kapitalmarkt sowie im Kosten- und Leistungsverhalten von institutionellen Anbietern und gewerblichen Vermittlern fördern und uns zudem aktiv für die Errichtung und Ausgestaltung eines Berufsbildes des unabhängigen Finanz-Planers einsetzen, der seine Auftraggeber frei von Provisionsinteresse gegen Entgelt berät.
