Citigroup taps Jane Fraser to succeed Corbat; first woman to head a Wall Street bank

[admin]

Alison Rose became the first woman to head a British bank when she took on the role at Natwest Group last year, while Santander executive chairman Ana Botin is the only female head of a major euro zone lender. Fraser has long been seen as a rising star on Wall Street, and last year was seen as a potential CEO candidate by Wells Fargo & Co's board, before it settled on former JPMorgan executive Charles Scharf.
