Citi Vietnam has appointed Ramachandran A.S. as Citi country officer.
In this role Ramachandran A.S, known as RamC, will oversee Citi’s operations in the country and will be the main regulatory representative for Citi in Vietnam.
He will be responsible for developing and fostering client relationships, managing risk and controls and protecting and enhancing Citi’s reputation in Vietnam.
RamC was previously head of global emerging markets coverage for Citi's Global Subsidiaries Group (GSG) in London where he was responsible for building Citi's business with the subsidiaries of multinational clients.
Prior to that, RamC was based in Singapore leading regional relationship coverage of Citi's largest multinational clients across Asia Pacific.
RamC relocated to Ho Chi Minh City in September and received official approval from the State Bank of Vietnam on his new role with Citi in December.
Established in Vietnam in 1994, Citi now has two branches located in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, employing around 900 people.
Commenting on the appointment of RamC, Amol Gupte, Singapore Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) head for Citi, says: “RamC’s corporate banking experience in both emerging and developed markets as well as his deep appreciation of the diversity of globalising clients will be vital to our ongoing commitment to our clients in Vietnam and in the region.
“ASEAN, including Vietnam, is a strategic priority for Citi and with the appointment of RamC as Vietnam country officer, we are well positioned for future growth in the country. ”
