REGISTERED financial planners from the RFP Institute have teamed up with INQUIRER.net to provide free financial advice to readers who wish to ensure their financial security.

Starting January 2007, readers who wish to ask a financial planning expert can send their questions to personal_finance [at] inquirer.net. Answers to these questions will be posted in the Advice section of INQUIRER.net’s Money site on its Business channel.

"This tie-up with the RFP Institute is only the latest in our efforts to help readers get answers to their financial questions," said INQUIRER.net editor-in-chief JV Rufino.

INQUIRER.net has long been at the forefront of educating online readers on reaching financial goals and personal money management.

Recently, its series of articles called Take Charge of Your Money ) published in collaboration with Citibank has drawn in an amazing number of readers from all over the world, notably overseas Filipino workers who long to gain the financial security they richly deserve.

Because of the huge volume of e-mails INQUIRER.net received, experts from RFP (Phils.) Institute ) will also provide answers to questions that touch on many other areas of financial planning, investing and saving for retirement, among others.

RFP (Phils.) Institute is the local chapter of US-based RFP Institute, an independent, self-regulatory professional organization for financial planners. RFP Institute is the first organization that has established the use of designations "RFP® Registered Financial Planner" and "SRFP® Senior Registered Financial Planner" in the world.
