Corporate Functions
On this page you can find out more about Citi’s functional core,
where technology, support services and operations come together to
enable Citi to do business across the globe.
Technology
Technology provides the tools of our trades, keeps our fingers
on the pulse of the global markets, helps us communicate and
collaborate across the world – and makes everything work.
Technology is the key to having a competitive advantage and it’s
becoming more influential in our success every year. Our IT
capability is divided into two main functions: Infrastructure,
which concentrates on the hardware that links people to information
across the world, and Development, which creates and maintains the
tailored software applications that support traders.
Operations
Operations is the functional
core of our business, clearing, settling and executing more than
525,000 trades and moving billions of dollars every day. This is a
fast-paced, high-tech environment characterized by a practical
commitment to continuous improvement. It would be wrong to think of
this as a back-office function, because as well as making
everything else possible, the people working in Operations are the
primary drivers of our competitive edge in the markets. The bottom
line is, if we can do business faster and more efficiently than
anyone else, we’ll get more of it. The Operations team is behind
that.
Human Resources
Human Resources looks after one of the most important client
groups for Citi: its employees. Across the globe, Human
Resources share a common goal of attracting, retaining,
compensation, benefits, employee relations and developing talent as
well as constantly embracing diversity throughout the organization.
This is a valuable endeavor, which is inextricably linked to the
success of Citi as a whole. In short, Citi's Human Resources
professionals provide outstanding people with the best opportunity
to realize their potential.
