FPSB Releases New Practice Guidance Note on the Use of AI in Financial Planning

DENVER, COLO – 24 June 2026 – Financial Planning Standards Board Ltd. (FPSB), the nonprofit, standards-setting body for the global financial planning profession and owner of the international CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER certification program, is pleased to announce the release of its new Practice Guidance Note: Use of Artificial Intelligence in Financial Planning, designed to help financial planning professionals use artificial intelligence (AI) responsibly while meeting their ethical and professional obligations.

As AI adoption accelerates across the financial planning profession, the guidance provides practical direction on how financial planners can use AI to support efficiency, insight and client service while reinforcing the importance of professional judgment, human oversight, transparency and confidentiality.

The guidance note comes as FPSB’s 2025 global research on the Impact of AI on Financial Planning found that two in three financial planners report their firms are using AI or planning to do so in the next 12 months. The research, based on responses from more than 6,200 financial planners across 24 territories, also found that 78% believe AI will help them better serve clients, while 60% say it will enhance the quality of financial advice.

“AI is reshaping the practice of financial planning, but trust, professional judgment and accountability remain essential,” said FPSB CEO Dante De Gori, CFP. “This new practice guidance note is designed to help financial planners embrace the benefits of AI while reinforcing that they remain responsible for the advice and recommendations they provide to clients.”

The guidance note was developed to help financial planning practitioners better understand their professional and ethical obligations, as set out in FPSB’s Global Financial Planning Standards, when using AI across the financial planning process, including in client communication, data gathering, and research. It also highlights key areas requiring special care, such as privacy, cybersecurity, and the accuracy and reliability of outputs. FPSB’s guidance stresses that AI should support — not replace — professional expertise and critical thinking.

“As technology evolves, FPSB’s global standards continue to guide the level of practice expected of financial planning professionals,” said FPSB Chief Professionalism Officer Paul Grimes, CFP. “This guidance note helps financial planners understand how their professional and ethical obligations evolve as AI becomes part of professional practice.” 

According to FPSB’s research on AI, financial planners are already using AI in practical ways, including client communications (41%), client data collection (33%) and client risk profiling (30%), as well as operational functions such as marketing (35%) and client onboarding (34%). At the same time, planners identified data privacy and cybersecurity (47%) and the accuracy and reliability of AI outputs (42%) among their top concerns.

The development of the practice guidance note was led by FPSB’s Professional Standards Committee in consultation with FPSB’s network of organizations, representing more than 236,000 CFP professionals across the world.

“AI can enhance how financial planners serve clients, but it must be used with care, transparency and professional oversight,” said FPSB Professional Standards Committee Chairperson Darren McShane. “FPSB’s new guidance note helps financial planners understand how to use AI responsibly while keeping professional judgment and client interests at the center.”

TN School Education Dept Launches Digital QR-Based Petition Platform

AI may replace certain jobs. AI will not replace capable human beings– V.V. Laxmi Narayana

EThames Business School Transforms into Telangana’s First AI-Native Business School

Hyderabad, June 24, 2026: EThames Business School (EBS), one of Hyderabad’s leading institutions for business education, today announced its transformation into Telangana’s first AI-Native Business School at a special event held at its campus.

The transformation marks a significant shift in management education, with Artificial Intelligence being integrated into every aspect of teaching, learning, research, innovation, industry engagement, and student development.

To mark the occasion, students and faculty presented a unique skit titled “AI Tools Speak, Humans Decide.” Characters representing leading AI platforms—ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot, and Grok—competed to persuade students to choose/use them. As the students became increasingly confused by the competing claims, professors stepped in to deliver the central message: use AI responsibly, think critically, question intelligently, and never allow Artificial Intelligence to replace Human Intelligence.

Students, faculty members, and institutional leaders also took separate pledges to use AI responsibly, ethically, and professionally. Certificates were presented to faculty and students who completed the institution’s AI-Native transformation programme. A commemorative AI-Native cake was also cut to celebrate the milestone.

Addressing an audience of more than 200 students, faculty members, industry leaders, and ecosystem partners such as V.V. Laxmi Narayana, IPS (Retd), Chief Transformation Officer, EThames Business School; Dr. Raghavendra Hunasgi, Venture Investor / CEO String Metaverse; Murali Bukkapatnam, Former Chairman, Global Board of Trustees, TiE; Bipin Chandra Pendyala, President, HYSEA; Ajit Rangnekar, former Dean ISB and others, Kali Prasad Gadiraju, Chairman, EThames Business School, said that the institution’s AI transformation journey began over a year ago.

“This is not merely the launch of a new initiative. It is our response to one of the most significant transformations in human history. For more than two centuries, educational institutions have prepared students for the world of work. Today, the world of work is changing faster than our educational institutions. If the world has changed so dramatically, how can education remain the same?” he asked.

He said that just as computer literacy became essential in the 1990s, AI literacy and AI capability have become essential today.

“Nobody asks students to perform complex calculations without a calculator. Calculators make us faster, more accurate, and more productive. Similarly, AI can help students learn faster, understand deeper, research better, and create more effectively. At EThames, we believe AI should not replace thinking—it should amplify thinking. AI should not replace learning—it should accelerate learning. That is why we have reimagined our classrooms, our faculty, and our learning environment to become AI-Native,” he said.

Speaking on the occasion, V.V. Laxmi Narayana, IPS (Retd.), Chief Transformation Officer, EThames Business School, described AI as the next great chapter in humanity’s technological evolution.

“The Wheel transformed transportation. The Printing Press transformed knowledge. Electricity transformed industry and everyday life. The Computer transformed productivity. The Internet transformed communication. Smartphones transformed access. And now Artificial Intelligence is transforming everything,” he said.

Unlike earlier inventions that transformed specific aspects of life, AI is influencing every field simultaneously—from education, healthcare, business, and manufacturing to finance, media, governance, research, and creativity, he observed.

Addressing concerns about job losses due to AI, he said such fears have accompanied every major technological revolution.

“When railways arrived, people feared the end of traditional travel. When computers were introduced, many predicted widespread unemployment. When ATMs emerged, people said bank branches would disappear. None of those predictions came true. Technology changes jobs; it does not eliminate human potential. AI may replace certain jobs. AI will not replace capable human beings. The future belongs to those who are lifelong learners,” he said.

Dr. Sandeep Kumar Shukla, Director, IIIT Hyderabad, who joined virtually as Guest of Honour, lauded EThames Business School’s pioneering initiative. “AI is no longer a technology of the future. It is a reality of the present. Educational institutions must equip students not only to use AI tools but also to think critically, innovate responsibly, and work effectively alongside AI,” he said.

EThames can be a good laboratory for AI innovation—a place where the rigid boundaries of traditional pedagogy dissolve to make way for a fluid, intelligent ecosystem, said Dr. Raghavendra Hunasgi, Venture Investor / CEO String Metaverse

Murali Bukkapatnam, Former Chairman, Global Board of Trustees, TiE, said: “A school is not its machines. A company is not its algorithms. A future is not artificial. It is—and always will be—its people. By building Telangana’s first AI-Native Business School, EThames is also building a more human future.”

Bipin Chandra Pendyala, President, HYSEA, highlighted the distinction between AI students and AI-Native students. “AI students learn Artificial Intelligence as a subject. AI-Native students learn, think, collaborate, and innovate with AI as an integral part of their academic and professional journey. The future belongs to AI-Native talent,” he said.

Dr. Mani Pavitra said India has the potential to become the world’s largest creator economy.

“Having helped professionals create more than 100,000 reels, I have learned that the future belongs to those who create more than they consume. If our youth combine AI with character, execution, and innovation, they will not merely compete globally—they will build solutions for all eight billion people on Earth,” he said.

The event was attended by students, faculty members, industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and members of the broader innovation ecosystem.

Listening for Quantum Oscillations in the Kondo Insulator YbB12

Ultrasonic measurements reveal magnetic quantum oscillations only after YbB₁₂ transitions into a metallic state

Magnetic quantum oscillations have been unexpectedly observed in insulators, where freely moving charge carriers are not expected to exist. A joint study by researchers from Tokyo University of Science, The University of Tokyo, and Kobe University investigated this puzzling behavior in the Kondo insulator YbB₁₂ using ultrasound. While no oscillations were detected in the insulating state, clear signals emerged after the material became metallic, offering new insight into unusual quantum behavior in next-generation materials.

Tokyo, June 23: The organization and movement of electrons within a material determine whether it conducts electricity, behaves magnetically, or even becomes superconducting. Since this electronic behavior cannot be observed directly, scientists study it by observing how materials respond to external forces such as magnetic fields. One important method involves magnetic quantum oscillations (MQOs), tiny repeating changes in physical properties that occur when electrons reorganize into specific energy states under a magnetic field.

MQOs are usually observed in metals and semimetals, where electrons can move freely through the material. However, unexpectedly, they have also been found in insulators, which do not host freely moving charged quasiparticles or a Fermi surface, leaving open the question of what causes these oscillations.

Now, a research team led by Dr. Ryosuke Kurihara of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Tokyo University of Science (TUS), Japan, in collaboration with Dr. Atsuhiko Miyata of the Institute for Solid State Physics, The University of Tokyo,Japan, Dr. Shusaku Imajo of the Department of Advanced Materials Science, The University of Tokyoand Dr. Ruo Hibino of the Department of Physics at Kobe University, Japan, has observed quantum oscillations in the field-induced metallic phase of ytterbium dodecaboride (YbB₁₂) using ultrasonic measurements, while notably finding no such oscillations in its insulating state. Their findings, published in the journal Physical Review B on June 16, 2026, provide new insight into the puzzling behavior of this topological Kondo insulator.The paper was also selected as an Editors’ Suggestion, a distinction awarded by the journal to highlight particularly significant and noteworthy research.

“Since it is known that the quantum oscillations of YbB₁₂ are sample-dependent, we wanted to verify whether quantum oscillations are truly invisible with ultrasound by using a sample in which quantum oscillations have already been confirmed, and the data have been compiled into a paper. In our previous ultrasonic studies of YbB₁₂, no quantum oscillations were detected.Furthermore, if quantum oscillations are not visible with ultrasound, there must be some underlying physics that explains why they are not visible, and we wanted to verify that as well,” says Dr. Kurihara.

YbB₁₂ is a Kondo insulator, a material in which strong interactions between electrons open an energy gap at low temperatures, causing it to behave as an insulator despite exhibiting unusual metallic-like electronic properties. However, previous magnetoresistance measurements, which track how a material’s electrical resistance changes in a magnetic field, detected quantum oscillations while the material was still insulating. This contradicted the conventional understanding that MQOs require freely moving charged particles.

To better understand this behavior, the researchers performed bulk-sensitive ultrasonic experiments on a high-quality crystal of YbB₁₂ that had already shown quantum oscillations in earlier magnetoresistance studies. They exposed the material to magnetic fields of up to 65 T while cooling it to temperatures as low as 485 mK, close to absolute zero.

The researchers used ultrasonic measurements to track how the material’s elastic properties responded to magnetic fields, focusing on two elastic constants known as C11 and C44. In the insulating state below the field-induced insulator-to-metal transition near 45 T, the team found no clear evidence of magnetoacoustic QOs (MAQOs). Instead, they observed unusual features in the longitudinal elastic constant C11, including subtle dip-like and kink-like changes around 10 and 30 T, as well as another anomaly near 39 T. However, once YbB₁₂ transitioned into a metallic state above approximately 45 T, clear quantum oscillations appeared in both acoustic modes, suggesting that sound waves interacted more strongly with quasiparticles in the metallic phase.

The researchers suggest that the absence of MAQOs in the insulating state may result from weak coupling between the proposed fermionic quasiparticles and acoustic phonons, the vibrations that carry sound through the material. In addition, the large cyclotron mass of these quasiparticles may suppress the oscillatory signal, making it difficult to detect using ultrasound.

By clarifying when and how these oscillations appear, the study may help researchers better understand unusual quantum states in materials and advance the search for next-generation quantum materials.

“Our findings provide further information on the puzzling behavior of the insulating state of YbB₁₂,”saysDr. Kurihara.

Gujarat Takes Classrooms to Children in Salt-Pan Areas

Ahmedabad, June 23: In a significant step towards expanding access to education, the Gujarat government has converted 28 retired state transport buses into mobile classrooms for children living in the state’s salt-producing regions.

The initiative, titled “School on Wheels,” is aimed at addressing the educational challenges faced by children of salt-pan workers, many of whom live in remote areas with limited access to schools. Frequent migration and long distances often disrupt the learning process for these children.

The refurbished buses have been equipped to function as classrooms and will travel to salt-producing belts, bringing education directly to underserved communities. The programme seeks to ensure that children can continue their studies without interruption, regardless of their location.

Officials said the initiative is part of broader efforts to promote inclusive and equitable education, particularly for vulnerable communities. By taking classrooms to students rather than requiring students to travel long distances, the programme aims to improve attendance, learning continuity, and educational outcomes.

The “School on Wheels” project has been widely viewed as an innovative approach to bridging educational gaps and ensuring that no child is left behind due to geographical or socio-economic barriers.

With the launch of the mobile classrooms, Gujarat is reinforcing its commitment to making quality education accessible to children in even the most remote corners of the state.
