Phillip D. Murphy is based in the Charlotte, North Carolina office of Winters & Co. Advisors, LLC.  He is one of the pioneers of the municipal derivative and investment agreement business having developed or improved many of the structures being used in the market today.  He has over 15 years of experience in leadership positions with some of the most well respected financial institutions providing investment agreements and derivative products today.

Background

Prior to joining Winters & Co. Advisors, LLC, Mr. Murphy served as a Managing Director in the tax-exempt derivatives group at Bank of America, a business he helped establish  in 1998 and which became an industry leader in less than four years.

In his role as provider of derivative products and investment agreements, Mr. Murphy has structured or supervised over 2,000 transactions with over 1,200 clients in the past 5 years alone.  There are few individuals in the derivative advisory industry that can offer this level of “insiders” expertise to clients.
