Citigroup has been seeking to expand its wealth management division for ultrahigh-net-worth clients. Third-quarter revenue for that unit climbed 4% to $746 million on loan growth and improving spreads, Chief Financial Officer John Gerspach said last month.

“We continue to attract high-caliber talent as we build out our team locally,” Liu said in the statement. “Nicole’s appointment underscores this, in addition to our steadfast commitment to provide best in class service to our clients.”
Nunag was at JPMorgan for about 17 years, according to FINRA records. Citigroup said she handled wealthy clients, foundations and endowments. She previously worked in commercial real estate and has a bachelor’s degree from Hofstra University and an MBA from New York University.
