TTS Domestic Payments & Express Controls, Regulatory Management Senior Manager - Director

Global Payments is a key strength and differentiator for Citi. Our business intermediates and processes flows generated by Corporates, Banks & Financial Institutions and Governments. However, increasingly, payments are accumulating from digital native clients with B2C models, who expect 24*7 payment uptime across low value, high volume transactions.
 

Citi's goal is to provide our clients with a superior client experience and innovative product and solution sets that maximize Citi’s penetration of payment flows. Citi is uniquely positioned by way of our global capabilities and geographic (e.g. payments in 137 currencies and 100+ countries) reach to deliver on this opportunity in a way that our competitors cannot (e.g. they do not have the client, geographical or product breadth).
