The investor day followed robust first quarter earnings on April 14, with revenues of US$24 billion, up 14% year on year, and net income of US$5.8 billion, up 42% year on year. According to ET Now, this strong performance has been reflected in the bank's share price, which has more than doubled since the bank's last investor day in March 2022. The bank's progress in reshaping operations has been well-received by investors and stakeholders, with the bank demonstrating effective, disciplined management in generating sustainable returns.
K Balasubramanian, Citi India CEO and Cluster Head Banking, Indian Subcontinent, emphasized the bank's global strategy implementation. As reported by ET Now, he stated that Citi India is a great example of the global strategy in motion, with significant progress in deepening the client franchise, supporting cross-border investment and flows, and growing substantially since the consumer divestiture. The bank is focused on leveraging this momentum as a leading contributor to Citi's growth, with the India operations demonstrating the bank's ability to execute its global strategy effectively across different markets.
The investor day highlighted that targets will be achieved by driving client-led growth, including embracing technology further across the bank's five core businesses. According to ET Now, these businesses are increasingly connected and winning share of mind and wallet with key clients. The bank has advised on the three largest M&A deals announced year to date, demonstrating its market leadership and client relationships in the current environment. As reported by Citi, these targets will be achieved through client-led growth and technology integration, with the bank's businesses increasingly connected and winning share of mind and wallet with key clients.
