Asset Planning Corporation Celebrates 40 Years in Business
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Knoxville's Asset Planning Corporation, a personal financial planning and asset management company, is celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2015. The firm is regarded as one of the oldest independent, fee-based financial planning firms in the country. It has been regularly recognized as one of the best planning firms in publications including Medical Economics, Bloomberg Wealth Manager, and Investment Advisor magazines.
Asset Planning Corporation was founded in 1975 by the late Kemp Fain, a widely revered pioneer of the financial planning profession. Kemp was a member of the first graduating class of Certified Financial Planners in 1973. He dedicated his career to being on the cutting edge of providing meaningful financial planning to his clients. In 1985, Kemp co-founded what is now the CFP Board of Standards, the certifying and standards-setting organization that administers the Certified Financial Planner™ certification program and oversees more than 71,419 professionals using the CFP® certification in the United States. In honor of Kemp's devotedness to the profession, the Financial Planning Association® recognizes an individual each year with the P. Kemp Fain, Jr. Award for outstanding contributions to the financial planning profession in the areas of service to society, academia, government and professional activities.
Kemp's son, Paul Fain, joined the firm as a financial planner in 1988. Today, Paul is proud to carry on his father's legacy as President of Asset Planning Corporation by striving to make APC the best financial planning firm in East Tennessee. APC focuses on providing holistic financial planning including asset management as well as guidance in retirement, insurance, income tax, and estate planning.
Now 40 years old, many of APC's clients have been with the firm for four decades. Asset Planning Corporation seeks to build such long-term relationships with every client. Paul stated, "We explain to each of our new clients that financial planning isn't a sprint – it's a marathon, and we are a personal coach that runs beside them, advising on course corrections, and helping them manage obstacles along their path."
Fain added, "We really consider it a privilege to serve such wonderful individuals and families for multiple generations."
