Citi has announced the appointment of Jillian Snyder as Managing Director and North America (NAM) Head of Capital Introductions, marking a strategic addition to its expanding Prime Services leadership team. Snyder steps into the role with a mandate to strengthen Citi’s capital introduction capabilities, deepen engagement with institutional investors, and support the evolving needs of hedge fund clients across the region.
In her new position, Snyder will oversee Citi’s Capital Introductions efforts in North America, working closely with global counterparts to deliver tailored investor–manager matchmaking, market intelligence, and fundraising advisory across strategies. The appointment underscores Citi’s commitment to enhancing its value proposition for both emerging and established hedge funds at a time of continued allocation shifts and heightened competition for capital.
Snyder brings extensive experience in capital introduction, investor coverage, and prime brokerage, having worked with a broad network of institutional allocators, including family offices, funds of funds, endowments, and pension plans. Her track record includes building high-impact relationships, advising managers on fundraising trends, and driving measurable results for clients across multiple market cycles.
Snyder’s appointment comes at a time when hedge fund managers are navigating dynamic fundraising conditions. Allocators are increasingly focused on strategy differentiation, risk management, and operational quality—areas where capital introduction teams play an essential advisory function. Citi’s strengthened platform aims to provide managers with actionable investor insights, curated introductions, and broader strategic support to help them stand out in a competitive landscape.
Snyder will be based in New York and will collaborate closely with Citi’s global Capital Introductions team to deliver cross-regional support for clients with multi-market fundraising objectives.
With this appointment, Citi reinforces its commitment to investing in top-tier talent and strengthening its integrated Prime Services ecosystem. Snyder’s leadership is expected to play a pivotal role in further elevating the bank’s client experience and driving new opportunities across the North American alternatives landscape.
