掲載当時の記録です。
Women's Association of Financial Planners(女性FPの会)の英文の頭文字をとってWAFPと愛称ができました。
ＷＡＦＰ九州のおいたち
ＷＡＦＰ九州の前身は「女性ＦＰの会・九州支部」です。女性FPの会は93年に東京で設立されました。ＦＰ業界の中でも歴史の古い全国ネットワークの1つです。その後各地に５つの支部（関西、東海、北陸、中国、九州）が発足しましたが、2000年7月より、各支部独立採算制のゆるやかな連合会という形態へ移行し、現在に至っています。今は女性の会ではないのですが、WAFPという響きが良いので、会の名前として継承しています。
ＷＡＦＰ九州の目的
ファイナンシャルプランナーが互いに親睦をはかり、研鑚を積み、ライフプランの研究発表、金融・経済の情報提供などを行うことにより、ＦＰの社会的認知を図ると共に、社会の発展に貢献することを目的とします。
ＷＡＦＰ九州の活動
定期的に、勉強会を開催しています。また99年より、福岡市で開催される「福岡市女性センターアミカス／女性まつり」に、セミナーや無料相談会などの企画で参加しています。
What is “WAFP”?
“WAFP” stands for the Women's Association of Financial Planners, which is known and acting as a professional financial planners’ group under its nickname WAFP.
Brief history:
WAFP KYUSHU started as Kyushu division of the Women's FP Club, one of the oldest nation-wide networks in Financial Planning industry, which was founded in 1993 in Tokyo and goes down in the history of financial planning. Later, the Club was split into five branches of Kansai, Tokai, Hokuriku, Chugoku, and Kyushu, forming a loose federation since July 2000, each of which adopts self-supporting accounting system and has been successfully operating up to now. Today, WAFP is no longer exclusively for women. However, the name of our club would remain the same because “WAFP” sounds so sweet.
Purpose:
WAFP KYUSHU is a sophisticated professional non-regulatory organization not wishing for a representative commercial success that furnishes professional services within the area of personal financial planning so that the public has access to and benefits from competent financial planning, through promoting the mutual friendship, or by enhancing capacity of competent financial planning services, to make a Life Planning presentation and provide you with various useful information concerning economics and finance-related topics.
Activity:
In furtherance of the foregoing purposes, our study group meets on a regular basis (once a month or once every two months) to share our knowledge regarding personal financial planning. Since 1999, we have been participating in many local events, amongst others, "Fukuoka City Women's Center Amicus/Women's Festival", in connection with projects, including seminars, free consultations and the like.
