History:
Since 1999, we have been supporting the investment fiduciary community both in the U.S. and internationally. We are the first organization dedicated solely to promoting a culture of fiduciary excellence and improving the fiduciary decision-making process.
fi360 traces its roots to the formation of the Center for Fiduciary Studies as a training organization dedicated to instructing those entrusted with making investment decisions on behalf of others on how to better understand and manage their fiduciary responsibilities. Before long, we added our analytical technology division and since that time have grown to be the world’s leading organization for supporting the investment fiduciary process.
