Chris Mockford
Investor Relations Director
I’m part of the Investor Relations team at ECI, taking care of our existing investors and building relationships with potential new investors in ECI’s funds.
Prior to joining ECI, I spent 10 years in fundraising and investor relations roles, primarily in Evercore’s Private Funds Group, where I focused on the origination, strategic positioning and execution of fundraises across private equity, private credit and infrastructure.
I grew up in London and read Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the University of Oxford. Outside of work, I love to play squash and try to spend as much time outdoors as possible – most recently on hiking trips to Georgia, the Swedish fjords and the Three Peaks.
Squash. Countless hours on court doing drills, with the coach, in leagues. And I still get so much wrong! It’s wonderful and infuriating in equal measure but I’ve been playing since I was 7 and am fully addicted, so will never stop.
After a full day hike through the Andes, completely exhausted, we finally stopped to make camp and have dinner… couscous and tomato sauce never tasted so good.
Not a quote but a joke:
“How come dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It’s almost never for them.”
I shouldn’t find it as funny as I do, but it really tickles me every time. It’s also one of very few Norm Macdonald jokes that aren’t wildly inappropriate.
