Citi’s commitment to provide issuers with access to a comprehensive suite of value-added
resources, including a combination of global reach and local expertise, access to an industry-
leading global equity distribution network and specialized global investor relations support,
helped Citi win key depositary bank mandates in 2017.
As a result, Citi was named ‘Best DR Bank’ in Asia in
The Asset
magazine’s 2017 Triple A Asset
Servicing, Investor and Fund Management Awards. The Triple A Awards assess and recognize
both sellside service providers and buyside institutions to deliver a complete account of
Asia’s highly dynamic asset servicing industry. This prestigious award, which is based on Citi
Depositary Receipt Services’ performance during 2016 in Asia and worldwide, underlines our
team’s strength in several important areas globally. Our strength as a market leader, our work
with regulators in countries like Taiwan and Korea, innovative approach, and client testimonials
led us to win the award.
