Quotes from attendees of previous fi360 Conferences:

“The fi360 annual conference has become a mandatory event for me to stay current on the specialized information that will keep me competitive as an investment advisor.”
– David Bromelkamp, AIFA

"If you do retirement plans and don’t come to this conference, your clientele is vulnerable"
– Ed Proulx, AIFA

"My goal is generally to leave a conference like this one with 3 or 4 new, actionable items. I left this one with sixteen!"
– Ed Proulx, AIFA

"This was the first time I felt I received an understandable definition of what a fiduciary advisor and investment fiduciary are. I feel more prepared to present what differentiates our business form most investment advisors working on pension plans for plan sponsors."
– Scott Hohman

"Terrific! To sit under the feet of the best of best (fiduciary excellence) in this honorable industry and see a proper standard emerge is NOT completely describable in the words but my heart knows it…and that I will revisit over and over again until we meet again.”
– Donald K. Jones, AIFA
