One of the largest private banking businesses in the world, The Citigroup Private Bank, is the latest financial services organization to join SFU Business’ national Global Asset and Wealth Management Business Council.
Established in January 2001, the Council’s mandate is to provide curriculum guidance, mentorship and internships to the Global Asset and Wealth Management MBA program.
The Citigroup Private Bank provides personalized wealth management services for high net worth clients through 132 offices in 89 cities and 36 countries.
The new MBA program, launched in September 2002, teaches financial services professionals the more sophisticated aspects of investment management. They acquire first class technical skills in financial theory, asset allocation and security selection but also develop the softer, 'architectural' skills associated with investment counseling, estate planning and client relationship management.
"The Citigroup Private Bank shares in the vision of providing high level expertise and industry leadership, as well as advisory support, to future leaders in the financial services industry," says Alston Beinhorn, managing director and head of The Citigroup Private Bank Canada.
Peter Klein, academic director for the Global Asset and Wealth MBA program, is pleased to welcome this new member to the Council. "The depth of knowledge and global reach of The Citigroup Private Bank will make an important contribution to the continuing development of our wealth management program."
