中国证监会批准美国花旗集团在华设立独资证券公司，注册资本为人民币12亿元，总部位于上海1。该公司业务范围涵盖证券经纪、证券投资咨询、证券承销与保荐以及证券自营1，成为中国国内第7家外资独资证券公司1。
花旗集团于2019年退出与东方证券合资的投行业务后，于2021年11月向中证监提交申请1。经过2023年12月的受理和2024年2月的审批意见，最终获得批准1。花旗集团执行长佛瑞塞表示，该批准将增强公司为中国客户筹集资金、联系投资者及展开贸易业务的能力1。
China's securities regulator has granted approval to Citigroup to establish a wholly-owned securities company in the country, marking a significant expansion of the American financial institution's operations in China.1 The newly formed entity, Citigroup Securities (China) Co., Ltd., will be headquartered in Shanghai with a registered capital of 1.2 billion yuan (approximately 5.85 billion New Taiwan dollars).1 This approval makes Citigroup the seventh foreign-owned wholly-owned securities company operating domestically in China.1
The securities company will be authorized to conduct securities brokerage, securities investment consulting, securities underwriting and sponsorship, and proprietary securities trading.1 Citigroup withdrew from its joint venture investment banking business with Orient Securities in 2019 and submitted its application to China's securities regulator in November 2021.1 The approval process advanced in December 2023 when regulators decided to accept the application, followed by formal approval opinions issued in February 2024.1
Citigroup Group Chief Executive Officer Fraser stated that the approval would enhance the company's ability to raise capital for Chinese clients, connect investors, and expand trade-related services.1 The authorization reflects China's commitment to orderly expansion of market liberalization.1
