Citi Named World’s Best Digital Bank 2020 by Global Finance Magazine

Citi has been named the World’s Best Digital Bank by Global Finance magazine for the 19th consecutive year.

“We continue to build a financial platform for digital commerce, and have been transforming our solutions over the last several years to provide a better client experience that is fast, easy, and flexible,” said Naveed Sultan, Chairman, Citi’s Institutional Clients Group. “These digitization efforts were a critical enabler for our clients’ continuity of business in 2020. In a world that is highly digitized, the power of our digital services contributed significantly to our clients’ success. More than ever it is imperative that Citi – as their banking partner – deploy the latest in data science and digital technologies to provide clients with fully digital, intelligently interconnected solutions and an end user experience that exceeds their expectations.”

Commenting on this year’s awards Joseph Giarraputo, President and Publisher at Global Finance Magazine, said, “The global pandemic and other marketplace trends, such as the growth in ecommerce, have really heightened the relevance of digital banking channels and services. Citi stands out as an organization that is on the pulse of what is happening, globally, and is able to convert digitization trends and technology advances into innovations and capabilities that benefit its corporate and institutional clients.”

"This award is an endorsement of Citi’s innovation and investment in Client Centric solutions," said Tapodyuti Bose, Global Head of Digital Channels and Data, with Citi’s Treasury and Trade Solutions.

The persistent growth in CitiDirect users (600K at end of Q3, 16% YoY growth) shows how Citi’s solutions are helping clients to adapt and thrive in the face of these challenging times.

The expansion of eSignatures has also enabled clients to set up new accounts and overcome obstacles while in contingency situations.
