Citi named best bond and equity bank by Asia’s leading finance magazines

Citi was named best Asia-Pacific bond house by both IFR Asia and Finance Asia at their recent annual awards for 2024, with Citi also picking up best equity and equity-linked advisor for Asia-Pacific from the Asset.

“This recognition is testament to the teams' focus on supporting Citi's clients to deliver the best possible solutions for them. I would also like to thank clients for the trust they place in our network and advice on their key business decisions,” said Jan Metzger, head of Asia-Pacific investment banking for Citi.

The awards, decided by the editor and teams at the magazines, recognise the bank that was the best at supporting clients, leading and managing key debt, and equity capital markets transactions over the last 12 months for clients across the region.

In the editorial write-up announcing the awards in February, IFR Asia said, “Citi stood out for its ability to meet a variety of issuer needs and push for successful execution of sometimes challenging deals. Citi was the clear leader for its geographical reach, broad distribution, and ability to execute deals across the credit spectrum.”

Over the course of 2024, Citihelped raise close to $150 billion from global equity and debt markets for Asian clients. So far in 2025, the bank has raised close to $50 billion for clients.
