Assets under custody rose 22% to approximately $35 trillion, whilst Securities Services deposits increased 15% to $165 billion. The bank invests over $2 billion annually in its Services platform.

BlackRock reaffirms 1-2% Bitcoin allocation as Citi launches crypto custody this year

Bitcoin tested $65,000 on Tuesday as two Wall Street institutions deepened their cryptocurrency commitments. BlackRock reiterated its recommendation for a 1–2% portfolio allocation to Bitcoin, arguing the recent selloff stemmed from forced selling rather than weakened fundamentals. The asset manager's iShares Bitcoin Trust held over $47 billion by March 2026. Meanwhile, Citi unveiled Custody+, a new platform that will offer Bitcoin custody alongside traditional assets later this year. The bank is investing over $2 billion annually in platform infrastructure covering more than 100 markets. Amit Agarwal, head of custody at Citi Investor Services, said the platform matches clients' strategy speeds. Bitcoin traded near $64,708 at press time, roughly 50% below its October 2025 peak.
