04 Registered Retirement Plans
Both CFP professionals and QAFP professionals are expected to possess knowledge of the mechanics of registered retirement savings and income plans so that they may evaluate and recommend tax-efficient wealth accumulation and decumulation strategies that will aid individuals in reaching their retirement goals.
CFP professionals are expected to have further knowledge to facilitate analysis and evaluation of registered retirement plans for owners and key employees of a business, pension commutation and buyback decisions, and the options for transfers of capital property from registered retirement plans upon the death of an annuitant or plan member.
