Citi Treasury and Trade Solutions have announced that biometric authentication is undergoing pilot tests in key markets for the CitiDirect BE desktop and mobile online trading platforms, allowing customers to confirm identities using fingerprints or facial recognition on mobile apps or securely login on their desktop systems.

The CitiDirect service allows institutional clients to access a full range of trading services, including cash, trade, liquidity and investment services, according to a press release. The service allows clients to authenticate their identities without the need to get codes from tokens that generate passwords, making the process much faster.
