Title: Director
Firm: UBS
Age: 31
Anthony J. Kinsey is helping to keep things moving in the Midwest.
Serving as a director at UBS' Chicago office for over two years, he's developed a deep knowledge of infrastructure and the role of public finance.
"My work in the transportation sector has been exciting," he said. "It includes understanding the federal highway system and studying comparable toll roads, airports and mass transit systems across the country."
"I initially recruited Anthony after being impressed with his technical expertise, analytical skills, and deal execution capabilities," said Elizabeth Coolidge, managing director and head of Midwest region at UBS.
His talent comes in handy while helping issuers with the ongoing challenge of updating their official statements and investor presentations based on new disclosure requirements.
While working with the Indianapolis Local Public Improvement Bond Bank, Anthony deployed a variety of couponing options while using the revenue target as a guardrail to structure the transaction.
"It was a joy to work with that team and ultimately price the deal in June of this year," he said.
To unwind, Anthony prefers family time.
"I enjoy playing soccer with my children, going to the park, and relaxing at home," he said. "I also love reading and consuming information about the world. I try to read at least three to five Wall Street Journal and Bond Buyer articles each day."
Anthony also focuses on giving back to his chosen profession.
"Since graduating Morehouse College where community service is a pillar of our vocational training, I have sought out ways to give back to the public finance community," he said. "I am proud of being a part of the National Association of Securities Professionals' municipal planning committee, to help determine public finance programming."
