Karl Murphy

APFS

Based in Newry, I provide wealth management advice to clients both within Newry, and more widely throughout Northern Ireland.

I offer the benefit of a single relationship approach to meet all of your financial needs, whether you are a working professional looking to grow, manage, protect or preserve your wealth or a business owner/director looking to ensure you have the right plans in place for your company.

Adopting this approach enables me to offer an expert tailored service, but at the same time allows me to focus on building long term relationships, built around trust, discretion and respect.

I build long term relationships through effective communication, keeping clients informed, and providing a transparent and thorough approach.
