Philip: "We are experts in investment. Nothing would be built or improved, nothing would rise above the mock without our hand guiding - No, creating! - the future. They benefit as much as their worth."
Jacob: "It is their city, not yours."
Philip: "Without our investments, there would be no city."
—Philip Twopenny's last words in his assassination, 1868.[src]

Philip Twopenny (25 January 1827 – 1868) was a banker and Templar, controlling the banks of London during the mid-19th century.

In 1868, he attempted to rob the Bank of England under the alias of Plutus only to be killed by the Assassin Jacob Frye in the process. Twopenny's murder was publicized, causing the citizenry to mistrust currency, until Evie Frye recovered the printing plates stolen by the Blighters and returned them to the bank.
