Citi Private Bank’s law firm group, which serves the vast majority of the Am Law 100 and over 700 law firms in total, is set to become its own segment within the bank, in a sign of the growing sophistication of law firm clients.

Effective June 3, law firm group leader Naz Vahid will report directly to Citi Private Bank global head Peter Charrington. Vahid, who has been in her current role since 2009, had previously reported to Tracey Warson, the head of Citi Private Bank’s North American operations.
