For Immediate Release Citigroup Inc. (NYSE Symbol: C) (12 November 2006) Citigroup Mobilizes 30,000–Plus Volunteers Across For Immediate Release Citigroup Inc. (NYSE symbol: C) (12 November 2006) Citigroup Mobilizes 30,000–plus Volunteers Across 100 Countries for Inaugural “Global Community Day” November 18, 2006 Citigroup Hong Kong Volunteers Support “The Community Chest Flag Day” and “WWF-Workout for Nature” Citigroup employees volunteer year-round in the communities in which they live and work. “Global Community Day” is a new initiative to have Citigroup’s employees, along with their families and friends, come together as a global team on a single day each year. On this day, Citigroup colleagues in 100 countries around the world will join forces to demonstrate their commitment to their local communities. Volunteer teams will be working on hundreds of local projects addressing specific community needs, including literacy, housing, environmental protection, nutrition, health care and disaster relief. Citigroup expects more than 30,000 volunteers to participate in more than 800 projects in 400 cities. The themes for Hong Kong are People & Environment: reaching out to a large number of people and engaging in environmental protection. The two activities are: The Community Chest Flag Day and WWF-Workout for Nature. Citigroup Hong Kong senior managers and employees, along with family and friends will be joining these activities. Over 1,000 volunteers in Hong Kong will participate in a street flag sale across the territory to raise money for the Community Chest’s social welfare agencies. Volunteers will be spread across 16 full-service Citibank branches. Another 200-plus volunteers will help to cut exotic weeds at freshwater ponds at Mai Po Nature Reserve, located in Tam Kon Chau, Yuen Long. Friends and family can also sponsor volunteers according to the weight of weeds they remove from the ponds. “Citigroup is committed to mobilizing the enthusiasm and talents of our employees for community service,” said Charles Prince, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Citigroup. “Citigroup’s Global Community Day is a company-wide effort, with tens of thousands of volunteers working in Asia Pacific, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and North America. This initiative certainly highlights the power 1/2 and diversity of Citigroup’s employees and our unwavering commitment to making communities better where we live and work,” said Prince. # # # Citigroup, the leading global financial services company, has some 200 million customer accounts and does business in more than 100 countries, providing consumers, corporations, governments and institutions with a broad range of financial products and services, including consumer banking and credit, corporate and investment banking, securities brokerage, and wealth management.

Following a settlement, Citigroup dispatched Charles Whitehead, an American lawyer with Japanese experience, to serve as "country officer" in Japan. Regulators were told that Mr. Whitehead would share responsibility for compliance and control in all Citigroup's business units in Japan, from retail banking to corporate finance.

Visit www.nytreprints.com for samples and additional information. Order a reprint of this article now. January 3, 2010 Citi’s Creator, Alone With His Regrets By KATRINA BROOKER “THIS is my final annual meeting as chairman,” says Sandy Weill, standing near the window of his office, peering at a grainy photograph of him and his wife on stage at Carnegie Hall more than three years ago. They are smiling broadly, and behind them is a packed house of cheering Citigroup shareholders. A huge banner dangling from the balcony reads “Thank You Sandy.” On that day, April 18, 2006, Citi’s share price was $48.48. After studying the photo for a few moments, Mr. Weill says quietly, “I thought the company was impregnable.” He knows now, of course, that he was wrong. Over the last two years, Mr. Weill has watched Citi — a company he built brick by brick during the final act of a 50-year career — nearly fall apart. Although every taxpayer in the country has paid for Citi’s outsize mistakes, for Mr. Weill the bank’s myriad woes are a commentary on his life’s work. “Sandy will forever be identified with Citigroup,” says Michael Armstrong, a Citi board member and a former chief of AT&T.

  • Interest Rates, Repo Markets, and an Activist Fed | Jim Grant
    What’s the Price of Mispricing Risk? Interest Rates, Repo Markets, and an Activist Fed | Jim Grant January 9th, 2019 When the music stops, in terms of liquidity, things will be complicated…But as INTRODUCTION long as the music is playing, you've got to get up and dance. — Charles Prince James Grant (born 26 July 1946) is an American writer and publisher. The founder of Grant's Interest Rate Observer, a twice-monthly journal of the financial markets, he is the author of Money of the Mind (1992), The Trouble with Prosperity (1996), John Adams: Party of One (2005), Mr. Speaker: The Life and Times of Thomas B. Reed, the Man Who Broke the Filibuster (2011), and The Forgotten Depression (2014) among other works. His most recent publication is Bagehot: The Life and Times of the Greatest Victorian (2019), a biography of the brilliant and influential English banker, economic and political writer, and editor of the Economist, whose ideas about central banking informed the U.S. Federal Reserve's response to the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-09. WHY DO I CARE? In a recent episode I recorded with flutist Eugenia Zukerman, we discussed some of the challenges associated with preparing for an interview with someone you know personally or who you have already interviewed. Jim Grant has been on Hidden Forces once before, but he made several appearances on my old television program Capital Account, and we have spent a good deal of time getting to know one another both on- and off-air over these many years as well.
