In April 2021, during her first televised interview as CEO of Citigroup on CNBC, Fraser disclosed that despite the [British] accent, she had "been a proud American [citizen] for the last 20 years".

On 26 May 2021, during a congressional testimony before the United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs, Fraser noted in her opening remarks as CEO of Citigroup, that she first arrived in the United States in 1987, before becoming a U.S. citizen in 2001.

Fraser is Vice Chair for Partnership for New York City and a member of the Harvard Business School's Board of Dean's Advisors, the Stanford Global Advisory Board, the Economic Club of New York and the Council on Foreign Relations. Fraser has led the Citi Operations team since 2021. She was also a member of the board of the Touch Foundation from 2006 to 2015.

In June 2015, Fraser appeared on a CBS Local report about Citi Global Community Day, in which she and other volunteers spruced up the Liberty Square public housing project in Miami.
