The first part covers principles and the second part covers rules.Principles are statements that express in general terms the ethical andprofessional ideals that the CFP Board expects certified financialplanners to exhibit in their professional activities.

The rules section, on the other hand, contains descriptions ofthe standards of ethical and professionally responsible behavior that theBoard expects of designees in specific situations. Of course, the variednature of financial planning means that all of the rules will not beapplicable to all designees at all times.
