This first of its kind service in the industry takes financial mobility to a new level by pioneering the use of ‘mobile credit,’ cross-border client credit references, to provide credit cards on arrival in the destination country.

Global Executive Banking is designed to provide top executives with essential financial services in their destination country, so that, upon arrival, they can be as prepared financially as if they were still at home. It was also designed to be a win-win for the thousands of multinational organizations Citi works with and their relocating executives by facilitating the financial aspects of the relocation process for both.

Vicky Bindra, executive vice president of customer franchise management at Citi global consumer group international, said: The value, convenience, and access we can offer clients through Global Executive Banking furthers our efforts to be the bank of choice for global executives. It’s a great example of how Citi is leveraging its global reach, scale and expertise to provide clients with one relationship and one experience where they live now and in their next destination around the globe.

This innovative service is initially being launched in the US, the UK and Singapore but will roll out to additional countries over the course of the year.
