The story

Formerly known as First National City Bank, Citibank opened its first Malaysian branch in Jalan Medan Pasar, Kuala Lumpur with 17 employees in July 1959. Two more branches opened in 1965, another one in Kuala Lumpur and one in Penang.

Citibank Berhad locally incorporated on April 22, 1994 making it the first American Bank to do so.

Consumer and corporate banking operations were brought under one roof at the new headquarters, Citibank Menara, on June 11, 2001.

In 2006, following the lifting of restrictions on foreign banks, Citibank opened branches throughout Malaysia in Bukit Tengah (Penang), Damansara Perdana (Petaling Jaya), Klang, and Puchong (Selangor). In 2009, Citibank opened another four branches in Taipan USJ, Cheras, Melaka, and Kuantan, expanding its branch network to eleven.

On November 1, 2022, Citigroup completed the transfer of Citi Malaysia's retail banking and consumer credit card businesses to UOB Malaysia.
