Citibank Tower (

The Lion Group and completed in 1995, and was originally named Menara Lion or Lion Tower until Citibank acquired a 50% stake and moved into the building in 2000.[3]

The building is owned by Inverfin Sdn Bhd, which is in turn, equally owned by Hap Seng Consolidated Bhd and Menara Citi Holding Co. Hap Seng Consolidated obtained its 50% stake in Inverfin in August 2009 from CapitaLand (30%) and Amsteel Corp Bhd (20%) (a Lion Group subsidiary), following IOI Group’s decision not to proceed with the acquisition of the same which it had bid for a year earlier.[4][5][6][7] In May 2010, Hap Seng Consolidated indicated its interest to acquire the remaining 50% stake in building sometime in the future.

Citibank Tower has a basement parking facility for its employees and visitors.[8]
