Colin Lynch

I graduated as a Ä¢¹½´«Ã½'s Dual-Degree in History and Commerce. I profoundly enjoyed my time studying in the department - particularly under Professors Robert Malcolmson (will never forget my first year survey course) and Professor Jeffrey Collins - a professor I've spoken about to many.

Today, I'm a Senior Vice President at Greystone Managed Investments - a $33 billion investment fund responsible for overall strategy, growth and US expansion. Previously, I was General Manager of Global Strategy for Aimia (Aeroplan's Parent Company), the Senior Engagement Manager at McKinsey & Company - a Management Consultancy and Investment Banking Analyst at Morgan Stanley. 

I also serve as a Board Member of Toronto Community Housing Corporation - landlord for 120,000 Torontonians living in 2,100 buildings where I chair of the Building, Investment, Finance and Audit Committee and its five subcommittees - responsible for the operating and capital budgets as well as over 10 major revitalizations (redevelopments of neighbourhoods in Toronto).  

I've also served as Member of the Board of Trustees of Ä¢¹½´«Ã½'s University for the past 5 years and am Vice Chair of the Capital Asset and Finance Committee, responsible for the operating and capital budgets of Ä¢¹½´«Ã½'s. I'm also a member of the Investment Committee, overseeing $1.2 billion of endowment and investment funds and a University Councillor. Lastly, I serve as a member of the Board of Directors and as President-Elect of the Empire Club of Canada, Canada's oldest podium of record, founded in 1903.
