CITIBANK

Problem:
CRM Fragmentation & Inefficiency
One of 3 divisions in Citi's consumer banking sector, Citibank Wealth
Management has hundreds of advisors helping clients manage their investments
and personal wealth. Along with much of the financial services industry, this
unit has had a tumultuous recent past, including a number of acquisitions and
mergers. This resulted in complex web of 4 disconnected customer relationship
management (CRM) solutions, leading to some critical challenges:

These on-premise solutions were expensive to operate, both in terms of

infrastructure dollars and IT staff salaries.
Each CRM system gave wealth management advisors only a partial
view of their clients' financial information and interactions with Citi.
To access all data needed for a client call, advisors often logged into
multiple CRM tools, wasting valuable time and frustrating customers.
Some sensitive wealth data lacked adequate security while other data was
overprotected, preventing access from appropriate team members.
Advisors could not access CRM information on mobile devices, further
hampering their performance and client satisfaction.

Action:
Salesforce.com CRM Implementation & Customization
Aptaria developed and implemented a custom Salesforce CRM solution for
Citibank Wealth Management that integrated and replaced its fragmented
system of on-premise software. The new CRM provided:

A central 'dashboard' of key client data including all contact with

Citibank and relevant financial information that advisors could access
easily in one place.
A comprehensive yet granular security solution within Salesforce that
ensured sensitive client financial data was accessible only to those entitled
to it.
 A Salesforce.com mobile CRM solution that gave advisors secure access
to client data on Blackberries.
A hybrid or "mashup" solution that allowed Citibank to maintain
sensitive account balance data on-premise while preserving a cloud-like
experience for customers.

Result:
More Productive Advisors, Happier Clients
By implementing a tailored Salesforce.com CRM, Citi greatly increased its
wealth management advisors' productivity and the customer experience.
Specific benefits to the company include:

Hours and hours saved per week per advisor

Increased advisor focus on client investments and growth
Robust security for sensitive client financial data
Greater client satisfaction
