Citi announced today that it has entered into a mentor-protégé
partnership with Roberts & Ryan Investments, Inc., a
service-disabled veteran-owned (SDVO) institutional broker
dealer.
Through this partnership, Citi will provide mentorship to
Roberts & Ryan across several product and service areas, and
offer training to enhance their firm’s operations and compliance,
as well as consultation on business and organizational
management.
Roberts & Ryan provides a full suite of offerings in
equities and fixed income, including underwriting and trading of
corporate, municipal, and agency mortgage debt, as well as equity
agency trade execution, stock buybacks and equity underwriting.
They support the veteran community through direct hiring and
training of military veterans and donate a percentage of their
gross revenue to nonprofit organizations best positioned to aid the
veteran community in areas of health, wellness and career
transition.
“Citi has developed a strong working relationship with Roberts
& Ryan and we are excited to see it progress to this point. We
believe in Roberts & Ryan’s mission to improve the lives of
veterans and foster a supportive environment for them at work and
in the broader community. We are proud to be their corporate
partner and believe our support will help strengthen their
capabilities and enhance the firm’s growth,” said Ed Skyler,
Executive Vice President of Global Public Affairs at Citi and
Co-Lead of Citi Salutes.
Citi Salutes is a company-wide initiative to support veterans,
service members and their families through recruiting, mentoring,
leadership and community outreach programs. Originally established
in New York City, Citi Salutes now has employee-led chapters across
the United States and in the United Kingdom.
“We are excited to be partnering with Citi, a world class
organization that shares our mission and purpose of providing top
tier client service while supporting our Nation's military
veterans. Citi has been steadfast in their alignment with the
veteran community through key initiatives such as Citi Salutes,
Bring Them Homes, and numerous other health and wellness support
programs. It is truly an honor to be a part of Citi's continued
support of veterans, giving back to our Nation's heroes alongside a
great partner in Citi,” said Brian Rathjen, President of Roberts
& Ryan.
Citi was also the first financial agent bank to sign on to the
U.S. Treasury’s Fiscal Services Agent Mentor-Protégé Program, where
large banks partner with minority, women and veteran retail banks
or credit unions to aid in their banking activities.
Citi, the leading global bank, has approximately 200 million
customer accounts and does business in more than 160 countries and
jurisdictions. Citi provides consumers, corporations, governments
and institutions with a broad range of financial products and
services, including consumer banking and credit, corporate and
investment banking, securities brokerage, transaction services, and
wealth management.
