PROVIDENCE, RI – Global Finance has selected Citizens Bank as the Best Treasury and Cash Management Bank in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions for the second year in a row.
Winners were selected based on criteria such as customer service, product innovation, competitive pricing and the extent to which they successfully differentiate themselves from their competitors.
Citizens continues to make significant investments in its Treasury Solutions offerings to clients and this year will roll out its new commercial online banking platform —accessOPTIMATM— an easy to navigate suite of tools that can help improve efficiency and productivity by simplifying daily cash flow processes and deliverables. The Citizens team is dedicated to delivering an exceptional customer experience and future-proofing its product suite to meet the evolving needs of its clients.
Citizens will be recognized for its top rankings at an awards ceremony to be held at the top of London’s Gherkin building on Sept. 25, during the annual Sibos conference.
“We’re honored to receive this award for the second year in a row as it recognizes the Citizens team’s continued hard work on behalf of our clients,” said Michael Cummins, head of Treasury Solutions at Citizens Bank. “As our clients’ strategic and financial partner, we’re committed to exceeding their expectations and providing them with a robust suite of products and tailored solutions to help them reach their potential.”
