Investable assets are what you own that can easily be turned into cash and invested, such as bank accounts, stocks, mutual funds and bonds. Some financial advisors – especially those who charge clients a percentage of the assets under their management – require their clients to have a minimum amount of investable assets.

CFP Board Public Disciplinary History
Effective Date: 2/4/2020
Robert M. Krieger (New York City): In February 2020, the Disciplinary and Ethics Commission (Commission) and Mr. Krieger entered into a settlement agreement in which Mr. Krieger agreed that CFP Board would issue a four-month suspension of his right to use the CFP® certification marks. In the settlement agreement, Mr. Krieger consented to findings based on a 2018 Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (AWC) with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) which found that he formed and pursued an outside business activity without proper disclosure to his firm and that he failed to disclose timely two compromises with creditors. As part of the AWC, Mr. Krieger consented to a four-month suspension from associating with any FINRA member firm in any capacity and a fine in the amount of $10,000. Mr. Krieger failed to report his FINRA suspension to CFP Board within 30 calendar days. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, Mr. Krieger consented to findings that his conduct violated Rules 4.3 and 5.1 of the Rules of Conduct and provided grounds for discipline under Articles 3(a), 3(d), 3(e), and 13.2 of the Disciplinary Rules and Procedures. Accordingly, the Commission issued to Mr. Krieger a suspension for four months. Mr. Krieger’s suspension is effective from February 4, 2020 until June 4, 2020.

About Bankruptcies
Effective June 30, 2020, CFP Board may publicly sanction a CFP® professional for a personal or business bankruptcy that violates CFP Board’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct. (There is no violation if the CFP® professional can make a case that the bankruptcy does not reflect on the professional’s ability to responsibly manage his or her own financial affairs or the financial affairs of the business.) You can find public sanctions in the “CFP Board Public Disciplinary History.” Under the “Prior Bankruptcy Disclosure Procedures” that applied from July 2012 – June 2020, CFP Board published information about a CFP® professional’s verified single bankruptcy in a press release and on CFP Board’s website. These were disclosures, not discipline or sanctions, and remain on CFP Board’s website for 10 years. You may learn more about the disclosure procedures here. You can learn more information about a bankruptcy filing at the U.S. Court’s website. You will be required to register and pay a nominal fee to view the information on that website.
