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.
