Financial Forum Slate for April 2025 in Orlando, Florida
The International Association of Registered Financial Associates (IARFC®) brings continuing education and professional networking to the IARFC Financial Forum at the World Center Marriott in Orlando Florida, April 23-35, 2025. With key industry themes of Empowering Futures and Strengthening Legacies, the Forum topics are timely and relatable to professionals in financial services.
The presenters offer in depth commentary on a variety of topics from practice management to best practices, products, platforms, and planning. They bring decades of experience and insight to their general and breakout sessions. Exhibitors will be on hand to discuss their state-of-the-art products and programs of interest to attendees. With an emphasis on transparency and ethics, a course is scheduled to those who need to fulfill an ethical component of their continuing education.
“I am excited about the quality of experienced professionals that we bring to the table this year,“ commented Paul Wharf, RFC ® - Financial Forum Committee Co-Chair. “As a life-long learner, I appreciate the personal interaction and education that comes from events such as these.”
International IARFC Chapter leaders will be on hand to network and give industry insights of their respective countries. “By interacting with different chapters and their cultures, we learn that the need for financial planning transcends our differences,” observed Barry L. Dayley, MRFC®, CFP® - IARFC Board of Trustee Chair. “As a Growing Global Community, the IARFC expands its Mission to support IARFC members and the families that they serve through these dynamic international thought leaders.”
Of particular interest is the FINALS of the IARFC National Financial Plan Competition. For decades, the IARFC has held this event to support undergraduate students who are in financially-based college curriculums – thus supporting the next generation of financial professionals. Three teams will present their financial plans to an audience of highly experience consultants participating as judges. National recognition and prizes are awarded to the top team at the Thursday Awards Banquet. “Seeing these young adults compete is phenomenal and FUN!” continues Wharf. “It takes courage to present their plans to us “seasoned” professionals and I take away an admiration for the next generation of consultants.”
The World Center Marriott in Orlando is a world class facility that is close to major theme parks such as Disney World, Epcot, Universal Studios, and Sea World thus making it a fun-filled family destination. Discounted room rates are available upon registration.
Registration is open with an “early bird” rate until January 31. Make your plans now.
