The bank has been recognised as the best bank for its global transaction services for the seventh consecutive year.

Citigroup scored the highest globally for both usage and overall client satisfaction - the first time any financial institution has ever won in both the survey categories.

Once again, this year Citigroup, the owning company of Citibank NA, placed highest in overall client usage on a global basis maintaining its leadership position from 2004. This trend was also seen in the regional usage rankings where it was given the highest ratings in Europe, Africa, North America and Latin America, and maintained its 2004 ratings in Asia and the Middle East.
