Citigroup, a New York-based investment bank and financial services company, has promoted Joe Bond to senior vice president of currency sales for the UK and Jersey. Bond has led Citi’s currency sales team for both jurisdictions since April 2021.
The executive, who brings more than a decade of forex experience, joined Citi in July 2015 as assistant vice president (AVP) of FX sales. During his more than seven years at Citi, Bond also served as Vice President of Forex Consulting, Sales and Execution.
Prior to joining Citi, the forex specialist worked in a support role with the founder of Abshire-Smith, a startup that offered electronic foreign exchange (eFX) margin and contract for difference trading to institutional and high net worth investors. . The executive held a position focused on the Middle East and North Africa for almost four years between October 2011 and July 2015.

Additionally, between September 2010 and October 2011, Bond worked as a Spot eFX Dealer and Market Maker at CPT Markets UK, then Citypoint Trading Limited. After graduating with a degree in Commerce and Economics from the University of Kent in 2009, Bond began his career as a graduate foreign exchange broker with Halo Financial Limited, a firm which offers banking, investment, lending and other financial services.
Citi was founded 24 years ago by Sanford Weill. The company is one of the four largest banking companies in the United States alongside JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Through its numerous subsidiaries, Citi is active in industries such as asset management, banking, equity trading, investment and risk management, among others.
The investment bank is one of the remote-work-friendly Wall Street companies. In December last year, Citi CEO Jane Fraser said the company’s employees could work remotely for the last two weeks of the year.
However, on Tuesday Fraser, speaking at a Bloomberg event at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, revealed that remote employees are called back into the office for coaching when their productivity drops.
