Bangkok – 2006 is proving to be a stellar awards year for Citigroup Thailand. Recently it was named the Best Foreign Bank in Thailand by regional financial trade publication, FinanceAsia. As well, Citigroup also won the Best Internet Bank award (for Thailand) from the U.S.-based Global Finance magazine.
In both cases, the 2006 award announcements continue a strong run of success for Citigroup because the respective awards were also presented to the Bank in 2003, 2004 and 2005.
These awards joins a list of other accolades presented to the Bank by leading financial publications such as Asiamoney, Euromoney, FinanceAsia, Global Finance and Trade Finance in 2006. The awards not only recognize the Bank’s achievements in recent times, but also its strong showing in customer surveys run by some of the publications.
Mr. Gary Newman, Citigroup Country Officer and Head of Corporate and Investment Banking in Thailand said, "We are very pleased to receive all these awards from leading financial publications. While some awards name Citigroup as the winner because of our remarkable business performance and excellent services, many of the awards also recognized the confidence and trust placed by our clients in our products and services.
"The award of Best Internet Bank also reflects the high security, user-friendly internet-banking service offered to both our Consumer Bank and Corporate Bank customers. We will continue this momentum to ensure that we keep delivering superior online banking products and services in the future."
