Muni Dedication

In Dedication to

James T. Higgins

June 30, 1953 – November 18, 2010

This is a tribute to James T. Higgins, a former associate, co-worker, boss and more importantly, a friend. We all knew him by Jim and couldn’t help but love his Irish roots and his contagious laugh. One of his favorite quotes was, “What’s the sense in being Irish if you can’t do something stupid once in a while.” Although, this was quite contradictory, as Jim was a highly intelligent man who headed up many thriving businesses. Much of his success was due to his hard work, optimistic character and creative nature.

The MuniGroup, LLC was launched in 2018. Much of the vision for The MuniGroup is a direct result of our association with Jim Higgins. Jim introduced us to the financial printing industry in 2004, and at this time, when printing was the norm and electronic disclosure was just seeing the light, Jim could already foresee the direction of this industry. He owned and operated a company that served the municipal bond market and was among the first to introduce the technology needed to be successful.

Right when he was at the top of his game, tragedy hit and Jim was diagnosed with brain cancer. His optimism had him fighting until the end which came exactly 1 year from the date of his diagnosis. He is most remembered for his wisdom, intelligence, risk-taking, loving nature, and his infectious laugh. We truly gained valuable knowledge from Jim and hope to continue his vision through The MuniGroup.

In remembrance of Jim, The MuniGroup make a donationto a different charity every year. We thank you as your business helps us to pay it forward to others!
