Matt Murphy, CFP^®, AIF^®

With nearly 25 years of experience in the financial services industry, Matt is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER^® professional and Accredited Investment Fiduciary^® (AIF^®), dedicated to providing personalized financial solutions to individuals and families. After spending years at top financial institutions such as Fidelity Investments and Certified Financial Group, Matt founded Benetas Wealth to offer a more tailored, client-focused approach—one that emphasizes independence, candor, and transparency. He believes that the best relationships are built on trust and understanding, and that each client deserves a strategy as unique as their financial goals.

Many financial advisors focus on telling clients what they can't do—what they should cut back on, what trips they can't take, or what luxuries they need to sacrifice. Matt takes a different approach. He embraces the challenge of finding creative, practical solutions that allow clients to achieve their goals without unnecessary compromises. At Benetas Wealth, the philosophy is simple: to offer wisdom and clarity during life’s most important financial moments. The firm’s byline, "Wisdom for Your Wisdom Years," reflects Matt's commitment to helping clients navigate the complexities of wealth management with confidence. Whether it’s planning for retirement, managing investments, or creating a lasting legacy, Matt works closely with clients to craft personalized strategies designed for long-term success, without the pressure of scaling or centralizing services.

Matt and his family have called Central Florida home since 2003, where they currently reside in Longwood. Outside of his work, Matt enjoys traveling with his wife and two daughters, who are both competitive golfers. Together, they cherish annual trips to Pinehurst, NC, where his daughters compete in the World Championships. When not on the golf course, Matt enjoys cooking, reading, and maintaining an active lifestyle.
