Euclid Walker

Euclid Walker joined as Senior Managing Director & Partner in February of 2021. In his new role, Walker leverages his considerable experience advising institutional and family office clients to advance CGI's recently announced $650 million H-Fund.

Beyond expanding CGI's hospitality portfolio, Walker is tasked with investor relations and fundraising efforts for all CGI investment strategies, helping forge and further solidify partnerships across the firm's growing list of institutional investors, capital market players and other high-profile collaborators. He also helps advance and reimagine Nexus Workspaces, CGI's portfolio of flexible office solutions with a growing footprint across highly sought-after suburban locations.

A natural entrepreneur, Walker founded and led several successful businesses prior to joining the CGI team, including the investment and advisory firm Parkway Investment Management, LLC, which holds ownership stakes in Opportunity Zone Advisors, LLC, and Global Oak Capital Markets, LLC, a registered broker dealer and investment banking firm. Walker also founded Renascent Capital Group in 2004, which executed transactions and co-investments for global private equity funds and assisted top Wall Street firms with international mergers and acquisitions assignments.

Before these ventures, Walker spent a decade with Morgan Stanley, where he held senior positions, including executive director in the Investment Banking Division and operations officer for Corporate Finance and Mergers and Acquisitions Departments, with leading roles in Johannesburg, London, Chicago and New York.

In addition to his professional endeavors, Walker is a committed civic leader, supporting the local business community as a former member of the Chicago Plan Commission and the Palm Beach County Investment Policy Committee, a position he was appointed to by the Palm Beach Board of Commissioners to help set investment policy for the county's roughly $2 billion budget.
