However, for reasons of confidentiality and in order not to cause speculation in the market, they did not make it public previously. “The president of the group, Jane Fraser, personally came to Mexico to explain this decision, and emphasized that Citigroup will maintain its wholesale corporate banking activities in our country. He pointed out that it is a corporate decision derived from its general policy of leaving consumer banking in almost all countries, except the United States ”, can be read in the notice.This policy is consistent with its departure, from 2021, from most nations in Europe, Asia and the rest of Latin America.They explained that the measure is in line with the historical evolution of this bank and emphasized that Citigroup’s priority has always been corporate banking, “until the mergers it carried out in the 1990s, so the bank returns to its business traditional worldwide, in which it has always performed successfully”, they concluded.
