CITIBANK Singapore has tripled the amount of money that its mass retail clients have to tie to their accounts to avoid incurring a monthly fee, sharpening its focus on the "emerging affluent" market.
The US bank told customers that it has standardised its total relationship balance (TRB) to S$15,000 for all its banking clients. This is up from S$5,000 for the mass retail segment, or what Citi calls Citibanking.
