Which 13 countries is Citibank closing?

In a strategic move aimed at restructuring its operations, Citigroup recently announced its decision to withdraw its consumer banking services from 13 countries, primarily across Asia. This initiative comes as part of an ongoing review spearheaded by CEO Jane Fraser. The countries affected by this decision include Australia, Bahrain, China, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Poland, Russia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Citigroup’s decision to exit the consumer banking sector in these countries underscores its commitment to streamlining operations and focusing on markets where it can achieve sustained growth and profitability. While this move may come as a surprise to some, it aligns with the bank’s broader strategy of optimizing resources and enhancing shareholder value. By consolidating its presence in key markets, Citigroup aims to allocate resources more effectively and capture opportunities that offer the highest returns.

Although the decision to withdraw from these markets may have implications for both customers and employees in the short term, Citigroup believes that it is a necessary step to ensure long-term sustainability and competitiveness. The bank remains committed to serving its clients through alternative channels and will work closely with affected stakeholders to minimize any disruptions. As Citigroup continues to evolve its business model, it remains focused on delivering value to its shareholders while adapting to the dynamic landscape of the global banking industry.
