Sales and Trading

What Is Sales and Trading?
Our Institutional Clients Group provides Sales and Trading services to clients around the world while conducting proprietary trading for the Firm’s own accounts. Our sales force provides a critical link between the Firm's customers and the marketplace. These professionals identify client needs and convey them to the Firm's trading, research, syndication and finance experts. Traders work closely with the salespeople, who constantly supply them with information on investors' activities, appetites and interests. In trading, integration is key to successful performance. The close collaboration of traders with salespeople and professionals from other departments allows Citi to meet the needs of our clients creatively.
Sales and Trading at Citi
Citi professionals continuously provide market intelligence and liquidity to a wide array of institutions ranging from traditional mutual funds investing primarily in equities to alternative investment vehicles investing across the capital structure. Citi employees must be both in touch with the pulse of the market as well as cognizant of longer-term trends. Whether it's a split-second trading decision or in-depth analysis as part of a complicated transaction, our goal remains concise and simple: to provide value to the investment process of our clients.
