The AAFM was founded in 1996 , via a merger between the American Academy of Financial Management & Analysts (AAFMA) and the Founders Advisory Committee of the Original Tax and Estate Planning Law Review. The AAFM is a professional association governed by a Board of Standards and a membership code of ethics and standards of practice. The AAFM operates in most countries as a ‘society’ or non-profit association, with the members of the local or regional chapter making up the ‘owners’ of the society. At all times the AAFM and its members are accountable to the community and to the board of standards.
