- Revenues, Net of Interest Expense, and Benefits, Claims, and Credit Losses in the table above are disclosed on an owned basis (under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)). If this table were prepared on a managed basis, which includes certain effects of credit card securitization activities including receivables held for securitization and receivables sold with servicing retained, there would be no impact to net income, but Revenues, Net of Interest Expense, and Benefits, Claims, and Credit Losses would each have been increased by $1.210 billion and $960 million in the 2003 and 2002 third quarters, respectively, and by $3.520 billion and $3.062 billion in the respective nine-month periods. Although a managed basis presentation is not in conformity with GAAP, the Company believes it provides a representation of performance and key indicators of the credit card business that is consistent with the way management reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Furthermore, investors utilize information about the credit quality of the entire managed portfolio as the results of both the held and securitized portfolios impact the overall performance of theCards business. See the discussion of theCards business on page 16.

Net income in the 2002 nine months included an after-tax gain of $1.158 billion from the initial public offering of TPC's stock, $717 million (after-tax) in income from discontinued operations from TPC and an after-tax charge of $47 million, reflecting the cumulative effect of adopting an accounting change (as described in Notes 2 and 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Return on average common equity was 19.7% and 20.9% in the nine months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Global Consumer net income increased $301 million or 14% and $1.1 billion or 18% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months compared to the 2002 periods. Global Corporate and Investment Bank (GCIB) income increased $326 million or 31% and $622 million or 18% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months compared to the 2002 periods. Private Client Services income increased $15 million or 8% in the 2003 third quarter and declined $87 million or 14% from the year-ago nine-month period. Global Investment Management income grew $53 million or 17% and $156 million or 14% from the respective 2002 periods, while Proprietary Investment Activities increased $216 million and $278 million from the 2002 third quarter and nine-month periods.
See individual segment and product discussions on pages 15 - 34 for additional discussion and analysis of the Company's results of operations.
Revenues, Net of Interest Expense
Total revenues, net of interest expense, of $19.4 billion and $57.3 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months were up $1.8 billion or 10% and $3.9 billion or 7%, respectively, from the 2002 periods. Global Consumer revenues were up $448 million or 5% in the 2003 third quarter to $10.3 billion, and were up $2.2 billion or 8% in the 2003 nine months to $30.2 billion. Increases inRetail Banking revenues of $586 million or 17% and $1.9 billion or 18% from the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively, were driven by the impact of the Golden State acquisition as well as increases in most regions. Compared to the 2002 periods, Cards was down $172 million or 5% in the 2003 third quarter and was up $142 million or 1% in the 2003 nine months, whileConsumer Finance revenue increased $37 million or 2% in the 2003 third quarter and $219 million or 3% in the 2003 nine months, reflecting growth in North America that was partially offset by declines in Japan.
Compared to the 2002 periods, GCIB revenues were up $206 million or 5% to $4.8 billion in the 2003 third quarter and were up $505 million or 3% in the 2003 nine months, driven byCapital Markets and Banking, up $165 million or 4% and $279 million or 2% in the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods.Capital Markets and Banking growth in the 2003 third quarter reflected increases in Fixed Income.
Global Investment Management revenues of $2.3 billion in the 2003 third quarter and $6.4 billion in the 2003 nine months were up $536 million or 30% and $776 million or 14% from the comparable 2002 periods, primarily due to higher portfolio gains and the sale of one group pension close out contract inLife Insurance and Annuities, in addition to higher client trading and lending revenue inPrivate Bank. Private Client Services revenues were up $59 million or 4% in the 2003 third quarter, reflecting higher fee revenue and were down $223 million or 5% in the nine-month comparison, primarily reflecting lower fee revenue and transactional volumes. Revenues in Proprietary Investment Activities increased $526 million and $726 million from the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively, primarily reflecting higher net recognized gains and lower impairment write-downs.
Selected Revenue Items
Net interest revenue rose $694 million or 8% from the 2002 third quarter to $9.9 billion and increased $1.3 billion or 5% from the 2002 nine months to $29.2 billion, reflecting increases in fixed income trading and investment positions, acquisitions, the impact of a changing rate environment and business volume growth.
Total commissions and asset management and administration fees of $5.6 billion were up $683 million or 14% from the 2002 third quarter, primarily as a result of increases in volumes. Insurance premiums of $1.1 billion and $2.7 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months were up $216 million or 25% and $169 million or 7%, respectively, from the 2002 periods.
8
Principal transactions revenues of $1.3 billion and $4.2 billion for the 2003 third quarter and nine months were up $314 million or 32% from the 2002 third quarter and $344 million or 9% from the 2002 nine-month period. The three-month increase is primarily attributable to the gain on the mark-to-market of excess servicing rights inRetail Banking, as well as gains on foreign exchange. The nine-month increase is primarily due to an increase in foreign exchange income, offset by lower trading results.
Realized gains from sales of investments were up $280 million from the 2002 third quarter and $790 million from the 2002 nine months, primarily resulting from gains on the Company's insurance investment portfolio and the absence of losses from WorldCom in the prior-year nine-month period. Other revenue of $1.4 billion in the 2003 third quarter decreased $433 million from the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting the 2002 gain on sale of 399 Park Avenue, partially offset by higher venture capital activity and higher securitization gains and activity, which in turn was partially offset by increased credit losses on securitized credit card receivables. Other revenue of $4.8 billion was up $904 million in the 2003 nine months, primarily reflecting higher venture capital activity and higher securitization gains and activity, partially offset by the sale of 399 Park Avenue.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses of $9.6 billion and $29.1 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, were up $1.2 billion or 14% in the 2003 third quarter and were up $2.5 billion or 9% in the 2003 nine months, compared to year-ago levels. The increase primarily reflects the addition of GSB, increased compensation expenses in the GCIB, costs associated with the repositioning of our Latin America business, higher pension and insurance costs, the additional cost of expensing stock options and an increase in the amortization of deferred acquisition costs inLife Insurance and Annuities.
Global Consumer expenses in the 2003 third quarter and nine months were up 13% and 11%, respectively. GCIB expenses were up 17% in the quarter and were up 10% in the nine months while Global Investment Management expenses were up 29% and 16% from the year-ago periods. Private Client Services expenses were up 3% in the 2003 third quarter and were down 3% in the nine-month period.
Benefits, Claims, and Credit Losses
Benefits, claims, and credit losses were $2.7 billion and $8.7 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, down $855 million and $1.2 billion from the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively. Policyholder benefits and claims in the 2003 third quarter increased 25% from the 2002 third quarter to $1.1 billion, and were up 10% to $2.9 billion in the 2003 nine months, primarily as a result of the sale of one group pension close out contract inLife Insurance and Annuities. The provision for credit losses decreased 40% from the 2002 third quarter to $1.6 billion in the 2003 third quarter and decreased 20% from the 2002 nine months to $5.9 billion in the 2003 nine months, reflecting improved credit quality in both consumer and corporate businesses.
Global Consumer provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses of $1.7 billion in the 2003 third quarter were down 22% from the 2002 third quarter, reflecting decreases inCards andRetail Banking, partially offset by increases inConsumer Finance. Total net credit losses (excluding Commercial Markets) were $1.691 billion and the related loss ratio was 2.31% in the 2003 third quarter, as compared to $1.745 billion and 2.42% in the preceding quarter and $1.755 billion and 2.75% in the year-ago quarter. The consumer loan delinquency ratio (90 days or more past due) decreased to 2.28% at September 30, 2003 from 2.41% at June 30, 2003 and 2.47% a year ago. See page 39 for a reconciliation of total consumer credit information.
The GCIB provision for credit losses of $76 million in the 2003 third quarter decreased $588 million or 89% and the nine-month provision of $490 million decreased $1.0 billion or 67% from year-ago levels. The decreases reflect this year's improving credit environment contrasted with prior-year provisions for Argentina and exposures in the telecommunications industry.
Corporate cash-basis loans at September 30, 2003 and 2002 were $3.789 billion and $3.932 billion, respectively, while the corporate Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) portfolio totaled $95 million and $117 million, respectively. The decrease in cash-basis loans from the 2002 third quarter reflects write-offs against previously established reserves, as well as paydowns, offset by increases to borrowers in the power and energy industry. Corporate cash-basis loans at September 30, 2003 decreased $415 million from June 30, 2003 primarily due to write-offs taken against previously established reserves and paydowns from borrowers in the power and energy and telecommunications industries as well as corporate borrowers in Argentina, Brazil and Hong Kong. The decrease in OREO from the 2002 third quarter was primarily due to continued improvements in the North America real estate portfolio.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate of 31.3% in the 2003 third quarter declined from 33.7% in the 2002 third quarter. The decline primarily represented benefits for not providing U.S. income taxes on the earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely invested and a $200 million release of a tax reserve that had been held at the legacy Associates' businesses and was deemed to be in excess of expected tax liabilities. The Company's effective tax rate was 31.1% in the 2003 second quarter.
9
Capital
Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) was $89.3 billion or 12.59% of net risk-adjusted assets, and Tier 1 capital was $67.3 billion or 9.49% at September 30, 2003, compared to $78.3 billion or 11.25% and $59.0 billion or 8.47%, respectively, at December 31, 2002.
EVENTS IN 2002 and 2003
Acquisition of Sears' Credit Card Business
On November 3, 2003, Citigroup acquired the Sears' Credit Card and Financial Products business (the 8th largest portfolio in the U.S.). The purchase price of $31.8 billion included Sears' private label and bank card credit card receivables of $28.6 billion (prior to any FFIEC and other purchase adjustments) plus a 10% premium of approximately $2.9 billion and $0.3 billion for other assets, business facilities and employees (approximately 8,000 employees, 6,000 full-time). In addition, the companies signed a multi-year marketing and servicing agreement across a range of each company's businesses, products and services.
Common Dividend Increase and Dividend Reinvestment Plan
On July 14, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 75% increase in the quarterly dividend on the Company's common stock to 35 cents a share from 20 cents a share. The increase in the quarterly dividend is part of an effort to reallocate capital to dividends and reduce share repurchases. Additionally, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the "Plan") for holders of Citigroup common stock. Registered holders of Citigroup common stock may elect to participate in the Plan and have some or all of their dividends reinvested in Citigroup common stock. On October 21, 2003, the Company declared a 35 cent dividend on its common stock.
Settlement of Certain Legal and Regulatory Matters
On July 28, 2003, Citigroup entered into a final settlement agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to resolve the SEC's outstanding investigations into Citigroup transactions with Enron and Dynegy. Pursuant to the settlement, Citigroup has, among other terms, (1) consented to the entry of an administrative cease and desist order, which bars Citigroup from committing or causing violations of provisions of the federal securities laws, and (2) agreed to pay $120 million ($101.25 million allocable to Enron and $18.75 million allocable to Dynegy). Citigroup entered into this settlement without admitting or denying any wrongdoing or liability, and the settlement does not establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding. Citigroup has made full payment to the SEC. On July 28, 2003, Citibank, N.A. entered into an agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and Citigroup entered into an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FED) to resolve their inquiries into certain of Citigroup's transactions with Enron. Pursuant to the agreements, Citibank and Citigroup have submitted plans to the OCC and FED, respectively, regarding the handling of complex structured finance transactions. Also on July 28, 2003, Citigroup entered into a settlement agreement with the Manhattan District Attorney's Office to resolve its investigation into certain of Citigroup's transactions with Enron; pursuant to the settlement, Citigroup has agreed to pay $25.5 million and to abide by its agreements with the SEC, OCC and FED. Citigroup has made full payment to the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. The Company had previously established reserves for the cost of these settlements.
On April 28, 2003, Salomon Smith Barney Inc., now named Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (CGMI), announced final agreements with the SEC, the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the New York Attorney General (as lead state among the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) to resolve on a civil basis all of their outstanding investigations into its research and IPO allocation and distribution practices (the Research Settlement). Consistent with the settlement-in-principle announced in December 2002, CGMI will pay a total of $300 million for retrospective relief ($150 million allocated among the states and $150 million federal payment), plus $25 million for investor education, and has committed to spend $75 million to provide independent third-party research to its clients at no charge. CGMI has adopted new policies and procedures to further ensure the independence of its research and address other issues identified in the course of the investigation. CGMI reached these final settlement agreements without admitting or denying any wrongdoing or liability. The Research Settlement does not establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding. The Company had previously established reserves for the cost of the retrospective relief portions of these settlements.
In April 2003, to effectuate the federal portion of the Research Settlement, the SEC filed a Complaint and Final Judgment in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On October 31, 2003, final judgment was entered against CGMI and nine other investment banks. Payment will be made in conformance with the payment provisions of the final judgment. Also in April 2003, the NASD accepted the Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent entered into with CGMI in connection with the Research Settlement; and in May 2003, the NYSE advised CGMI that the Hearing Panel's Decision, in which it accepted the Research Settlement, had become final. CGMI is currently in discussion with various of the states with respect to completion of the state components of the Research Settlement and has made payments to those states with which it has concluded agreements.

Impact from Argentina's Economic Changes
Throughout 2002 Argentina experienced significant political and economic changes including severe recessionary conditions, high inflation and political uncertainty.
During the full year of 2002, Citigroup recorded a total of $1.704 billion in net pretax charges. Of these charges, Citigroup recorded a total of $531 million in pretax charges in the 2002 third quarter and $1.5 billion (pretax) in the 2002 nine-month period. In addition, the impact of the devaluation of the peso during 2002 produced foreign currency translation losses that reduced Citigroup's equity by $595 million, net of tax, during 2002.
The Argentine Supreme Court determined that the 2002 redenomination of certain bank deposits of the Province of San Luis with Banco de la Nacion Argentina from dollars to pesos was unconstitutional. The parties to that litigation did not reach an agreement on the timing and manner of the repayment of the referred deposits within the timeframe set forth by the Supreme Court in its ruling, therefore, the Supreme Court is to decide the terms and conditions of such repayment. In the opinion of the Company's management, the ultimate resolution of the redenomination would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company. Following this decision on April 1, 2003, the government issued a regulation providing for a voluntary election on the part of depositors with reprogrammed/restricted balances to receive their peso deposits, including indexation, from their respective banks, as well as a ten-year bond issued directly by the government. During the election period, which expired on May 23, 2003, 41% of Citigroup's eligible deposit liabilities in Argentina elected to redeem their deposits. The redemption of deposits was effected with no significant impact on the Company's net income or liquidity.
In the 2003 third quarter, Citigroup recorded a total of $95 million in net after-tax charges, as follows: $120 million in write-downs resulting from the mandatory exchange of Argentine Government Promissory Notes (GPNs) for Argentine government bonds denominated in U.S. dollars; a $42 million write-off of impaired Deferred Acquisition Costs reflecting changes in underlying cash flow estimates for the business; $20 million of loss related to the restructuring of customer annuity liability balances; a $62 million after-tax reduction ($100 million pre-tax) in the consumer allowance for credit losses as a result of an improving consumer credit environment; and a $25 million after-tax reduction ($40 million pre-tax) in reserves for customer deposit liabilities reflecting improving trends in those settlements.
Also in the 2003 third quarter, the Company wrote off $127 million of its compensation instruments against previously established reserves. This action was triggered by, among other things, the government's disallowance during the quarter of compensation for pesification of certain credit card and overdraft loans. The initial principal payment of approximately $57 million under certain compensation instruments issued to the Company was paid in August 2003.
On July 3, 2003, an insurance subsidiary of the Company that issues annuities obtained approval from the Argentine Ministry of Insurance to offer a restructuring plan for its voluntary annuity holders. The election period will expire on November 30, 2003. As of October 29, 2003, 70% of the voluntary annuity customers have elected to participate in the plan.
The Company believes it has a sound basis to bring a claim, as a result of various actions of the Argentine government. A recovery on such a claim could serve to reduce the economic loss of the Company in Argentina.
As the economic situation, as well as legal and regulatory issues, in Argentina remain fluid, we continue to work with the government and our customers and continue to monitor conditions closely. In particular, we are watching the potential impact that the continued economic crisis may have on our corporate borrowers and how consumer deposits and our pension and insurance businesses will be affected by potential government actions. Other items we continue to monitor include the realizability of government obligations such as the compensation instruments held by Corporate and Consumer businesses and the government obligations held by the insurance subsidiaries, the potential for re-dollarization of pension annuities and further debt restructurings, and the liquidity and capital needs of the insurance subsidiaries. Additional costs to the Company will depend on future actions by the Argentine government and the Company. Additional losses may be incurred.

Initial Public Offering and Tax-Free Distribution of Travelers Property Casualty Corp.
Travelers Property Casualty Corp. (TPC) (an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup on December 31, 2001) sold 231 million shares of its class A common stock representing approximately 23.1% of its outstanding equity securities in an initial public offering (the IPO) on March 27, 2002. In 2002, Citigroup recognized an after-tax gain of $1.158 billion ($1.061 billion after-tax recognized in the 2002 first quarter and $97 million after-tax recognized in the 2002 third quarter) as a result of the IPO.
On August 20, 2002, Citigroup completed the distribution to its stockholders of a majority portion of its remaining ownership interest in TPC (the distribution). This non-cash distribution was tax-free to Citigroup, its stockholders and TPC. The distribution was treated
11
as a dividend to stockholders for accounting purposes that reduced Citigroup's Additional Paid-In Capital by approximately $7.0 billion. Following the distribution, Citigroup was a holder of approximately 9.9% of TPC's outstanding equity securities which are carried at fair value in the Proprietary Investment Activities segment and classified as available-for-sale within Investments on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Following the August 20, 2002 distribution, the results of TPC were reported in the Company's Statements of Income and Cash Flows separately as discontinued operations. TPC represented the primary vehicle by which Citigroup engaged in the property and casualty insurance business.
Acquisition of Golden State Bancorp
On November 6, 2002, Citigroup completed its acquisition of 100% of Golden State Bancorp (GSB) in a transaction in which Citigroup paid approximately $2.3 billion in cash and issued 79.5 million Citigroup common shares. The total transaction value of approximately $5.8 billion was based on the average prices of Citigroup shares, as adjusted for the effect of the TPC distribution, for the two trading days before and after May 21, 2002, the date the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced.
GSB was the parent company of California Federal Bank, the second-largest thrift in the U.S. and, through its First Nationwide Mortgage business, the eighth-largest mortgage servicer.
Sale of 399 Park Avenue
During the 2002 third quarter, the Company sold its 399 Park Avenue, New York City Headquarters building. The sale for $1.06 billion resulted in a pretax gain of $830 million, with $527 million ($323 million after-tax) recognized in the 2002 third quarter and the remainder to be recognized over the term of Citigroup's lease agreements. The Company is currently the lessee of approximately 40% of the building with terms averaging 15 years.
Changes in Credit Card Receivables and Securitizations
During the 2002 third quarter, the Company increased the loan loss reserve by $206 million related to past due interest and late fees on its on-balance sheet credit card receivables in accordance with recent guidance from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC).
Cards revenues included net gains of $64 million and $279 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, and $239 million in both the 2002 third quarter and nine months as a result of changes in estimates in the timing of revenue recognition on securitizations. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ACCOUNTING CHANGES IN 2003
Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), prospectively to all awards granted, modified, or settled after January 1, 2003. The prospective method is one of the adoption methods provided for under SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure," issued in December 2002. SFAS 123 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and recognized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). This compensation cost is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Similar to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," the alternative method of accounting, an offsetting increase to stockholders' equity under SFAS 123 is recorded equal to the amount of compensation expense charged. Earnings per share dilution is recognized as well. Assuming a three-year vesting provision for options, the estimated impact of this change will be approximately $0.03 per diluted share in 2003 and, when fully phased in over three years, approximately $0.06 per diluted share annually. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.

| 2.47 2.40 |
The Company has made changes to various stock-based compensation plan provisions for awards granted after 2002. For example, the vesting period and the term of stock options granted after 2002 have been shortened to three and six years, respectively. In addition, with certain limited exceptions in certain overseas locations, the sale of underlying shares acquired through the exercise of options granted in 2003 is restricted for a two-year period. The Company continues its existing stock ownership commitment for senior executives which requires executives to retain at least 75% of the shares they acquire from the Company over the term of their employment. Original option grants in 2003 and thereafter will not have a reload feature; however, previously granted options which carry a reload feature retain that feature. Other changes also may be made that may impact the SFAS 123 adoption estimates disclosed above. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On January 1, 2003, Citigroup adopted SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, other than in a business combination, be recognized when the liability is incurred. Previous generally accepted accounting principles provided for the recognition of such costs at the date of management's commitment to an exit plan. In addition, SFAS 146 requires that the liability be measured at fair value and be adjusted for changes in estimated cash flows. The provisions of the new standard are effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The impact of adopting SFAS 146 was not material.
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46). The provisions of FIN 46 applied immediately to variable interest entities (VIEs) created after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. In October 2003, the FASB announced that the effective date of FIN 46 was deferred from July 1, 2003 to periods ending after December 15, 2003 for VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Citigroup elected to adopt the remaining provisions of FIN 46 in the 2003 third quarter, with the exception of the deferral related to certain investment company subsidiaries. FIN 46 changes the method of determining whether certain entities, including securitization entities, should be included in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. An entity is subject to FIN 46 and is called a VIE if it has (1) equity that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (2) equity investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's operations, or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the expected returns of the entity. All other entities are evaluated for consolidation under SFAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries." A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party involved with the VIE that absorbs a majority of the expected losses receives a majority of the expected residual returns or both.
For any VIEs that must be consolidated under FIN 46 that were created before February 1, 2003, the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the VIE are initially measured at their carrying amounts with any difference between the net amount added to the balance sheet and any previously recognized interest being recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. If determining the carrying amounts is not practicable, fair value at the date FIN 46 first applies may be used to measure the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the VIE. The implementation of FIN 46 on July 1, 2003 resulted in the consolidation of VIEs increasing both total assets and total liabilities by approximately $2.1 billion.
The FASB continues to provide additional guidance on implementing FIN 46 through FASB Staff Positions. In addition, a draft interpretation of FIN 46 has been issued for comment. As this guidance is finalized, the Company will continue to review the status of VIEs it is involved with. As a result of changes in the guidance, additional VIEs may ultimately be required to be consolidated. This
13
paragraph contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the recognition and measurement provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" (FIN 45), which requires that, for guarantees within the scope of FIN 45 issued or amended after December 31, 2002, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee be recognized. The impact of adopting FIN 45 was not material.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
On July 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 149). SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS 133. In particular, this Statement clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative and when a derivative contains a financing component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash flows. This Statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Liabilities and Equity
On July 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" (SFAS 150). SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and classifies them in its statement of financial position. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) when that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective July 1, 2003, and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Accounting Changes in 2002
Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Effective July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" (SFAS 141) and certain provisions of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (SFAS 142), as required for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets resulting from business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001. The new rules require that all business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method. The nonamortization provisions of the new rules affecting goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are effective for all purchase business combinations completed after June 30, 2001.
On January 1, 2002, Citigroup adopted the remaining provisions of SFAS No. 142, when the rules became effective for calendar year companies. Under the new rules, effective January 1, 2002, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The adoption resulted in a cumulative adjustment of $47 million (after-tax) reported as a charge to earnings related to the impairment of certain intangible assets.
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
On January 1, 2002, Citigroup adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144), when the rule became effective for calendar year companies. SFAS 144 establishes additional criteria as compared to existing generally accepted accounting principles to determine when a long-lived asset is held-for-sale. It also broadens the definition of "discontinued operations," but does not allow for the accrual of future operating losses, as was previously permitted. The impact of adopting SFAS 144 was not material.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company's accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition. The Company has identified four policies as being significant because they require management to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. These policies relate to Valuations of Financial Instruments, Allowance for Credit Losses, Securitizations and Argentina. The Company, in consultation with the Audit Committee, has reviewed and approved these significant accounting policies, which are further described in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Global Consumer net income in the 2003 third quarter increased $301 million or 14% compared to the prior-year quarter reflecting increases in North America (excluding Mexico), Latin America, Asia and EMEA. Global Consumer net income in the 2003 nine months increased $1.076 billion or 18% compared to the prior-year period reflecting increases in all regions except Japan. Net income in North America (excluding Mexico) grew $272 million or 19% in the 2003 third quarter and $702 million or 18% in the 2003 nine-month period, driven by the acquisitions of GSB and the Home Depot private-label portfolio and growth in Consumer Assets and Citi Cards. Income in Mexico declined slightly in the quarterly comparison as a write-down of an investment security inRetail Banking was partially offset by improved credit, including a $64 million (pretax) credit recovery, and growth inCards. Income in Mexico increased 63% in the nine months, driven by a lower provision for credit losses combined with volume and spread improvements. Growth in Asia of $25 million or 13% in the 2003 third quarter and $101 million or 20% in the nine-month period was mainly due to increased investment product sales inRetail Banking combined with volume growth and improved credit inCards. EMEA grew $26 million or 15% in the 2003 third quarter and $63 million or 13% in the nine-month period, mainly due to the strengthening of the Euro combined with higher business volumes in all products. The increase in Latin America was mainly due to improvements in Argentina including lower losses and the release of reserves related to customer liability settlements combined with

the impact of changes in the level of the allowance for credit losses. Income in Japan declined $167 million or 64% in the 2003 third quarter and $313 million or 42% in the nine-month period, primarily reflecting the impact of portfolio contraction and spreads, as well as increased credit losses in Consumer Finance and the absence of a prior year gain on sale of the mortgage portfolio inRetail Banking. In the nine-month comparison, the decline in income in Japan was partially offset by a $94 million release of a tax reserve resulting from a settlement with tax authorities recorded in the 2003 second quarter.

Cards—which includes bankcards, private-label cards and charge cards in 47 countries around the world—reported net income of $985 million and $2.488 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, up $136 million or 16% and $338 million or 16% from the 2002 periods. North America Cards reported net income of $819 million and $2.113 billion for the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, up $91 million or 13% and $223 million or 12% from the 2002 periods, reflecting increased spreads, improved credit costs and the addition of the Home Depot private-label portfolio. International Cards income increased $45 million or 37% compared to the prior-year quarter and increased $115 million or 44% compared to the 2002 nine months, both reflecting the impact of changes in the allowance for credit losses related to Argentina, as well as growth in Asia.
During the 2003 third quarter, Citigroup completed the acquisition of the Home Depot private-label portfolio, adding $6 billion in receivables and 12 million accounts. On July 29, 2003, Citigroup completed the acquisition of a majority stake in Diners Club Europe adding approximately 1 million accounts, bringing Citigroup's ownership to 100%. The acquisition included the Diners Club franchises in the U.K., Ireland, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Italy, France, Germany and Switzerland.
As shown in the following table, average managed loans grew 4% and 5% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, reflecting growth of 2% and 5% in North America and 18% and 14% in International Cards. Growth in North America was led by Citi Cards, where the addition of the Home Depot private-label portfolio was partially offset by a decline in introductory promotional rate balances that was driven by a change in acquisition marketing strategies, as well as the sale of $1.7 billion of non-strategic portfolios. Growth in International Cards reflected increases in EMEA and Asia. The growth in International Cards also included the benefit of strengthening currencies and was partially offset by a decline in Latin America, which experienced lower loan volumes across the region. Sales in North America were flat to the 2002 third quarter, reflecting the change in acquisition marketing strategies offset by the addition of Home Depot and improved purchase sales. International Cards sales grew 18% from the prior-year quarter, reflecting growth in EMEA, Asia and Japan as well as the addition of Diners Club Europe.

- Although a managed basis presentation is not in conformity with GAAP, the Company believes it provides a representation of performance and key indicators of the credit card business that is consistent with the way management reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Furthermore, investors utilize information about the credit quality of the entire managed portfolio as the results of both the held and securitized portfolios impact the overall performance of theCards business.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $3.542 billion for the 2003 third quarter declined by $172 million or 5% from 2002, reflecting a decline of $271 million or 9% in North America that was partially offset by growth of $99 million or 17% in the international markets. Revenues in North America included net gains of $64 million and $239 million in the 2003 and 2002 third quarters, respectively, as a result of changes in estimates related to the timing of revenue recognition on securitizations. Excluding these items, the decline in North America was primarily due to increased credit losses on securitized receivables (which are recorded as a contra-revenue item after receivables are securitized) that was partially offset by the addition of the Home Depot portfolio, net interest margin expansion and the benefit of increased purchase sales and cardholder services fees. Revenue growth in International Cards was mainly driven by receivable and sales increases in Asia and EMEA, the addition of Diners Club Europe as well as the benefit of foreign currency translation. Revenues, net of interest expense, for the 2003 nine-month period of $10.184 billion rose $142 million or 1% as growth in EMEA and Asia was partially offset by a decline in North America. Revenue in North America included net gains of $279 million and $239 million in the 2003 and 2002 nine-month periods, respectively, as a result of changes in estimates related to the timing of revenue recognition on securitizations. Revenues in the 2003 nine months also included gains from the sale of $1.7 billion in non-strategic portfolios. Revenues in the 2002 nine months also included $128 million resulting from an increase in the amortization period for certain direct loan origination costs.
Operating expenses of $1.508 billion and $4.417 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, increased $90 million or 6% and $291 million or 7% from the prior-year periods. In North America, expenses increased 3% in the third quarter and 6% in the nine-month comparisons. The increase in the third quarter comparison was driven by the addition of the Home Depot portfolio, which was partially offset by lower advertising and marketing expenditures. In the nine-month comparison, expense growth reflected the addition of the Home Depot portfolio and increased advertising and marketing expenditures combined with the absence of a $19 million restructuring reserve release in the prior year. In International Cards, expenses increased 20% compared to the prior-year quarter and 10% compared to the 2002 nine months, driven by the addition of Diners Club Europe and the impact of foreign currency translation.
The provision for credit losses in the 2003 third quarter and nine months was $540 million and $1.992 billion, respectively, compared to $978 million and $2.604 billion in the 2002 periods. The 2003 third quarter provision for credit losses included a $44 million reduction in the allowance for credit losses due to improvement in credit experience and lower portfolio volumes in Argentina. In the prior year, the provision for credit losses included a $206 million addition to the allowance for credit losses established in accordance with FFIEC guidance related to past due interest and late fees on the on-balance sheet credit card receivables in Citi Cards and, in the nine-month period, a $70 million net addition to the allowance resulting from deteriorating credit in Argentina. Excluding the prior-year amounts related to FFIEC guidance and Argentina, the decline in the provision for credit losses reflected credit improvement in North America and in the international markets overall and an increase in the level of securitized receivables, partially offset by the impact of higher loss rates in the U.K. and Korea. Net credit losses in the 2003 third quarter were $579 million with a related loss ratio of 4.58%, compared to $679 million and 5.41% for the 2003 second quarter and $804 million and 6.28% in the prior-year quarter. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $819 million or 1.57% of loans at September 30, 2003, compared to $870 million or 1.80% at June 30, 2003 and $917 million or 1.74% at September 30, 2002.
The securitization of credit card receivables is limited to the Citi Cards business within North America. At September 30, 2003, securitized credit card receivables were $73.6 billion, compared to $64.6 billion at September 30, 2002. Credit card receivables held-for-sale were $3.0 billion at September 30, 2003, compared to $6.5 billion a year ago. Because securitization changes Citigroup's role from that of a lender to that of a loan servicer, it removes the receivables from Citigroup's balance sheet and affects the amount of revenue and the manner in which revenue and the provision for credit losses are classified in the income statement. For securitized
17
receivables and receivables held-for-sale, gains are recognized upon sale and amounts that would otherwise be reported as net interest revenue, fee and commission revenue, and credit losses on loans are instead reported as fee and commission revenue (for servicing fees) and other revenue (for the remaining revenue, net of credit losses and the amortization of previously recognized securitization gains). Because credit losses are a component of these cash flows, revenues over the terms of these transactions may vary depending upon the credit performance of the securitized receivables. For a further discussion of the securitization of credit card receivables, see page 71.
Including securitized receivables and receivables held-for-sale, managed net credit losses in the 2003 third quarter were $1.789 billion with a related loss ratio of 5.62%, compared to $1.887 billion and 6.08% in the 2003 second quarter and $1.764 billion and 5.74% in the 2002 third quarter. The decrease in the ratio from the second quarter of 2003 was primarily due to improvements in North America and in the international markets. Contributing to the improvement in North America was the addition of the Home Depot portfolio which at acquisition was recorded at fair market value, and represented $4.2 billion of average loans in the net credit loss ratio calculation for the 2003 third quarter. Excluding the Home Depot portfolio acquisition the loss ratio for the 2003 third quarter would have been 5.81%. The decline in the ratio from the prior-year quarter was primarily driven by improvements in the international markets, particularly in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Argentina. Loans delinquent 90 days or more on a managed basis were $2.353 billion or 1.83% at September 30, 2003, compared to $2.313 billion or 1.88% at June 30, 2003 and $2.309 billion or 1.86% at September 30, 2002.

Consumer Finance—which provides community-based lending services through branch networks, regional sales offices and cross-selling initiatives with other Citigroup businesses—reported net income of $467 million and $1.460 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, down $72 million or 13% and $177 million or 11%, respectively, from the comparable 2002 periods, principally reflecting a decline in International Consumer Finance resulting from continued weakness in Japan, which was partially offset by growth in North America, which also benefited from the acquisition of GSB, and EMEA. International results in the 2003 nine months included a $94 million release of a tax reserve related to a settlement with tax authorities, which increased income in Japan.

Growth in real estate-secured loans mainly reflected the continued cross-selling of products through Primerica as well as portfolio acquisitions in North America and growth in the U.K. Average auto loans for the 2003 third quarter increased $2.8 billion or 33% from 2002, primarily resulting from the addition of $2.0 billion through the acquisition of GSB, as well as a shift in funding policy to fund business volumes internally. In Japan, average loans in the 2003 third quarter declined 11% from the prior-year quarter, as the benefit of foreign currency translation was more than offset by the impact of charge-offs, reduced loan demand and higher pay-downs. Average loans in Japan are expected to continue to decline from the 2003 third quarter levels. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
As shown in the following table, the average net interest margin of 9.96% in the 2003 third quarter declined 66 basis points from the 2002 third quarter, reflecting compression in the international markets, particularly in Japan. In North America, the average net
18
interest margin was 8.34% in the 2003 third quarter, increasing 5 basis points from the prior-year quarter as the benefit of lower cost of funds was partially offset by lower yields, reflecting the lower interest rate environment and the continued shift to higher-quality credits. The average net interest margin for International Consumer Finance was 15.53% in the 2003 third quarter, declining 200 basis points from the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by Japan. The compression of net interest margin in Japan reflected a decline in higher-yielding personal loans combined with a change in the treatment of adjustments and refunds of interest and continued high levels of non-performing loans. Beginning in the second quarter of 2003, adjustments and refunds of interest charged to customer accounts are accounted for as a reduction of net interest margin whereas, in prior periods, such amounts were treated as credit costs. The net interest margin decline in Japan was offset, in part, by margin expansion in Europe, which was driven by lower cost of funds and the benefit of growth in higher-yielding personal loans.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $2.499 billion and $7.462 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, increased $37 million or 2% from the prior-year quarter and $219 million or 3% from the prior-year nine months. Revenue in North America increased 11% from the third quarter of 2002 and 9% from the first nine months of 2002 and was primarily driven by growth in receivables that included the addition of the GSB auto portfolio and the absence of prior-year realized insurance investment portfolio losses, partially offset by declines in insurance premium revenue. Revenue in International Consumer Finance declined $133 million or 14% and $167 million or 6% from the 2002 periods mainly due to lower volumes and spreads in Japan, partially offset by growth in EMEA and Asia, the benefit of foreign currency translation and, in the nine-month comparison, the impact of acquisitions in Japan.
Operating expenses of $867 million and $2.567 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, increased $91 million or 12% and $247 million or 11% from the prior-year periods. Operating expenses in North America increased $61 million or 13% and $159 million or 11%, respectively, from the prior-year periods, primarily due to increased volumes and the addition of the GSB auto portfolio, as well as increased staffing costs and collection and compliance expenses. Operating expenses for International Consumer Finance increased 10% from both the prior-year quarter and nine months. These increases reflected the impact of foreign currency translation, additional costs in Japan attributable to actions taken to restructure the business in response to the continued challenging business environment and, in the nine-month comparison, the addition of Taihei and Marufuku, partially offset by expense savings from branch closings and headcount reductions in Japan.
The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $925 million in the 2003 third quarter, down from $957 million in the 2003 second quarter and up from $844 million in the prior-year third quarter. The decline from the second quarter of 2003 primarily reflected improved credit conditions. The increase from the prior-year third quarter primarily reflected increases in the provision for credit losses in Japan, due to deteriorating credit conditions, and in North America, where the addition of GSB and growth in the portfolio were partially offset by a decline in policyholder benefits and claims. Net credit losses and the related loss ratio were $898 million and 3.92% in the 2003 third quarter, compared to $897 million and 4.01% in the 2003 second quarter and $779 million and 3.71% in the 2002 third quarter. In North America, the net credit loss ratio of 2.93% in the 2003 third quarter was down from 2.98% in the 2003 second quarter and up from 2.79% in the 2002 third quarter. The net credit loss ratio for International Consumer Finance was 7.34% in the 2003 third quarter, down from 7.43% in the 2003 second quarter and up from 6.42% in the 2002 third quarter. The increase in the ratio from the prior-year quarter was due to higher credit losses and lower loan balances in Japan, while the improvement from the prior quarter was mainly due to a decline in losses in EMEA and Japan which experienced a decline in bankruptcy losses during the quarter. The net credit loss ratio for International Consumer Finance in the 2003 second and third quarters was reduced by 62 and 66 basis points, respectively, as a result of the change in treatment of adjustments and refunds as discussed above. Net credit losses in the 2002 third quarter included $25 million for changes in loss recognition criteria in Japan that accelerated the timing of contractual write-offs in the personal loan portfolio. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $2.127 billion or 2.30% of loans at September 30, 2003, compared to $2.182 billion or 2.41% at June 30, 2003 and $2.179 billion or 2.60% a year ago. The decrease in the delinquency ratio versus the prior year and prior quarter was mainly due to improvements in North America.
In Japan, net credit losses and the related loss ratio may increase from the 2003 third quarter as a result of economic conditions, credit performance of the unsecured loan portfolio, including increased bankruptcy filings, and the impact of regulatory changes.

Retail Banking—which delivers banking, lending, investment and insurance services to customers through retail branches, electronic delivery systems and the network of Primerica independent agents—reported net income of $1.086 billion and $3.109 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, up $222 million or 26% and $938 million or 43% from the 2002 periods. The increase inRetail Banking was driven by growth in North America of $133 million or 23% and $676 million or 46% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, primarily due to the acquisition of GSB and strong growth in mortgage originations and deposit volumes, partially offset by a decline in Mexico. Net income in International Retail Banking increased $89 million or 30% and $262 million or 38% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, as improvements in Argentina combined with growth in EMEA and Asia more than offset the prior-year gain on sale of the mortgage portfolio in Japan.
As shown in the following table,Retail Banking grew average loans and customer deposits compared to 2002. The growth in North America primarily reflected the acquisition of GSB, partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation in Mexico. North America also experienced organic growth in customer deposits in Citibanking North America and in average loans in Consumer Assets, primarily due to increased mortgages. Average loan growth in North America was negatively impacted by a decline in CitiCapital resulting from the run-off of non-core portfolios. At the end of the 2003 third quarter, CitiCapital's non-core portfolios were also reduced by approximately $1.2 billion resulting from the sale of CitiCapital Fleet Services. In the international markets, average customer deposits grew 9% from the prior-year quarter driven by the impact of foreign currency translation and growth in Asia, EMEA and Japan. International Retail Banking average loans increased 2% from the prior-year quarter as the impact of foreign currency translation and growth in installment loans in Germany were partially offset by the 2002 third quarter sale of the mortgage portfolio in Japan. Growth in both loans and customer deposits was negatively impacted by volume declines in Latin America, reflecting declines across the region.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $4.135 billion and $12.339 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, increased $586 million or 17% and $1.858 billion or 18% from the 2002 periods. Revenues in North America increased $393 million or 16% and $1.310 billion or 18% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, driven by the acquisition of GSB and growth in Consumer Assets and Primerica. Excluding the acquisition of GSB, growth in North America, excluding Mexico, was driven by the benefit of increased loan and deposit volumes and higher mortgage servicing and securitization income, which was partially offset by lower net funding and positioning spreads in Citibanking North America and the impact of run-off of non-core portfolios in CitiCapital. Revenue growth in Primerica was driven by volume-related growth in insurance premiums and the absence of prior-year realized insurance investment portfolio losses. Revenues in Mexico declined $122 million or 25% and $84 million or 6% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, primarily reflecting the write-down of an investment security and the negative effect of foreign currency translation which were partially offset by improved spreads and volumes. International Retail Banking revenues increased $193 million or 17% and $548 million or 17% in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, reflecting the impact of strengthening currencies, improvements in Latin America and growth in EMEA and Asia. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, increased loan volumes, mainly in Germany, drove growth in EMEA, while Asia benefited
20
from strong investment and insurance products sales. The increase in Latin America reflected improvements in Argentina resulting from lower losses and the release of reserves related to customer deposit liabilities and a decline in government-mandated inflation indexed interest accruals. These improvements were partially offset in the nine-month comparison by a benefit in the prior year resulting from a change in the allocation of re-denomination losses among products based on the pesification decree issued by the Argentine government in February 2002. International Retail Banking revenue growth was negatively impacted by a decline in Japan resulting from a $55 million gain on sale of the $2.0 billion mortgage portfolio in the prior year.
Operating expenses in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $400 million or 22% and $891 million or 16% from the comparable 2002 periods. In North America, growth of $328 million or 27% and $659 million or 17% from the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively, was primarily due to the addition of GSB and volume-related increases in Consumer Assets, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation in Mexico. International Retail Banking operating expenses increased $72 million or 12% and $232 million or 13% from the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively, mainly reflecting the impact of foreign currency translation, volume-related increases, higher advertising and marketing costs, and, in the nine-month comparison, costs (including severance) attributable to business repositioning in Latin America and the consolidation of certain back office operations in Europe.
The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $254 million and $1.102 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, down from $382 million and $1.402 billion in the prior-year periods, reflecting a lower provision for credit losses. The decline in the provision for credit losses from the prior-year periods primarily reflected lower credit costs in Mexico, which includes a credit recovery of $64 million, and in CitiCapital, a $56 million reduction in the allowance for credit losses due to improvement in credit experience and lower portfolio volumes in Argentina, and was partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation and additions to the allowance for credit losses in Germany. The nine-month comparison also reflected a $101 million addition to the allowance for credit losses in the first quarter of 2002 related to Argentina. Net credit losses (excluding commercial markets) were $210 million and the related loss ratio was 0.72% in the 2003 third quarter, compared to $165 million and 0.58% in the 2003 second quarter and $166 million and 0.74% in the prior-year quarter. The increase in credit losses (excluding commercial markets) in the 2003 third quarter was primarily driven by an $87 million write-down of the Argentina compensation note (which was written down against previously established reserves), and was partially offset by improvements in all product lines in North America. Commercial Markets net credit losses were $50 million and the related loss ratio was 0.47% in the 2003 third quarter, compared to $139 million and 1.30% in the 2003 second quarter and $147 million and 1.50% in the prior-year quarter. The decline in Commercial Markets net credit losses in the 2003 third quarter was mainly due to a recovery in Mexico, and improvements in CitiCapital.
Loans delinquent 90 days or more (excluding Commercial Markets) were $3.707 billion or 3.19% of loans at September 30, 2003, compared to $3.706 billion or 3.29% at June 30, 2003, and $2.969 billion or 3.39% a year ago. Compared to a year ago, the increase in delinquent loans was primarily due to increases in Consumer Assets and Germany, including the impact of foreign currency translation, and was partially offset by declines in Taiwan, Argentina and Mexico. The increase in Consumer Assets was mainly due to the addition of GSB and a higher level of buy backs from GNMA pools where credit risk is maintained by government agencies.
Cash-basis loans in Commercial Markets were $1.283 billion at September 30, 2003, $1.165 billion at June 30, 2003, and $1.234 billion at September 30, 2002. The increase in cash-basis loans from the prior year and prior quarter mainly reflected increases in the vehicle leasing and transportation portfolios in CitiCapital and was partially offset by improvements in Mexico and Citibanking North America.
Average assets of $234 billion and $230 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, increased $51 billion and $50 billion from the comparable 2002 periods. The increase in average assets primarily reflected the acquisition of GSB, growth in mortgages and loans held for sale in Consumer Assets, and the impact of foreign currency translation in the international markets.

The reduction in losses in the quarterly comparison was mainly due to lower global marketing costs while the increase in losses in the nine-month comparison was driven by a $40 million pre-tax release of a reserve related to unused travelers checks in a non-core business in the prior year.

Global Corporate and Investment Bank (GCIB) serves corporations, financial institutions, governments, investors and other participants in capital markets throughout the world and consists ofCapital Markets and Banking andTransaction Services. The primary businesses inCapital Markets and Banking include Fixed Income, Equities, Investment Banking, Sales & Trading (which mainly operates in Asia, Latin America, EMEA and Mexico) and Lending.
GCIB net income of $1.368 billion and $4.107 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months was up $326 million or 31% from the 2002 third quarter and up $622 million or 18% from the 2002 nine months, respectively. The 2003 third quarter reflects net income growth from the comparable 2002 quarter of $247 million or 27% inCapital Markets and Banking and $74 million or 57% inTransaction Services. The 2003 nine months reflects income growth of $409 million or 13% inCapital Markets and Banking and $153 million or 35% inTransaction Services.
The increase inCapital Markets and Banking net income in the 2003 periods primarily reflects a lower provision for credit losses and increases in the Fixed Income business, partially offset by mark-to-market losses in credit derivatives (which serve as an economic hedge for the loan portfolio) as credit spreads tightened. The increase in the 2003 nine months also reflects the absence of prior-year redenomination losses in Argentina. The increase inTransaction Services net income in the 2003 third quarter is due to a lower provision for credit losses, lower taxes related to a benefit on the sale of an investment and lower expenses resulting from expense control initiatives. Net income in the 2003 nine months increased primarily due to a lower provision for credit losses.
The businesses of GCIB are significantly affected by the levels of activity in the global capital markets which, in turn, are influenced by macro-economic and political policies and developments, among other factors, in over 100 countries in which the businesses operate. Global economic and market events can have both positive and negative effects on the revenue performance of the businesses and can affect credit performance. Losses on corporate lending activities and the level of cash-basis loans can vary widely with respect to timing and amount, particularly within any narrowly defined business or loan type. Credit costs are expected to continue to improve compared to 2002 levels as the global economy strengthens. This paragraph contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.

GCIB net income increased in the 2003 third quarter and nine months primarily due to increases in Latin America and EMEA, partially offset by decreases in North America and Japan. Latin America increased $266 million in the 2003 third quarter and $524 million in the 2003 nine months, mainly due to prior-year provisions for credit losses and write-downs in Argentina. EMEA net income increased $121 million in the 2003 third quarter and $353 million in the 2003 nine months primarily due to increases in Fixed Income and in Equities and Lending, as well as a lower provision for credit losses. North America (excluding Mexico) decreased $111 million in the 2003 third quarter and $196 million in the 2003 nine months primarily reflecting mark-to-market losses in credit derivatives and lower deal volume, partially offset by a lower provision for credit losses and increases in Fixed Income. Japan
22
decreased $40 million in the 2003 third quarter and $23 million in the 2003 nine months primarily due to lower trading gains. Mexico net income increased $63 million in the 2003 third quarter benefiting from declining interest rates, and decreased $37 million in the 2003 nine months primarily due to strong 2002 trading revenues.

Capital Markets and Banking delivers a full range of global financial services and products including investment banking, institutional brokerage, advisory services, foreign exchange, structured products, derivatives and lending.
Capital Markets and Banking net income of $1.170 billion in the 2003 third quarter and $3.527 billion in the 2003 nine months increased $247 million or 27% and $409 million or 13%, respectively, from the 2002 periods primarily due to a lower provision for credit losses and increases in Fixed Income, partially offset by losses in credit derivatives as credit spreads tightened. The increase in the 2003 nine months also reflects the absence of prior-year redenomination losses in Argentina.
Revenues, net of interest expense, of $3.856 billion and $12.567 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $165 million or 4% from the 2002 third quarter and $279 million or 2% from the 2002 nine months, respectively. Revenue growth in the 2003 periods was driven by increases in Fixed Income and the absence of a prior-year write-down of Argentine sovereign securities, partially offset by mark-to-market losses in credit derivatives as credit spreads tightened. The increase in the 2003 nine months also reflects redenomination losses in Argentina in the prior-year period and declines in Equities. Fixed Income growth is primarily due to higher originations and trading as companies continue to take advantage of the low interest rate environment.
Operating expenses of $2.053 billion and $6.953 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $358 million or 21% from the 2002 third quarter and $761 million or 12% from the 2002 nine months, respectively, driven by increased Compensation and Benefits expense. The increase in the 2003 nine months also reflects costs associated with the repositioning of the Company's business in Latin America (primarily severance-related and higher legal fees).
The provision for credit losses of $73 million in the 2003 third quarter is composed of net credit losses of $331 million offset by net reserve releases of $258 million. Net releases include $196 million of writeoffs against specific borrowers as well as additional reserve reductions of $35 million in Mexico, $32.5 million in North America, $16.25 million in Asia and $16.25 million in Latin America, reflecting improving credit trends, offset in part by new reserves of $38 million for specific borrowers. The provision for credit losses of $73 million in the 2003 third quarter and $466 million in the nine months decreased $503 million and $871 million, respectively, primarily due to the absence of prior-year provisions for Argentina and exposures in the telecommunications industry as well as reserve reductions, reflecting improved credit trends.
Cash-basis loans were $3.588 billion at September 30, 2003, $3.691 billion at June 30, 2003, $3.423 billion at December 31, 2002 and $3.423 billion at September 30, 2002. Cash-basis loans net of write-offs increased $165 million from September 30, 2002, primarily due to increases to borrowers in the power and energy industry, as well as the transfer of loans from Transactions Services ($248 million) offset by decreases due to charge-offs against reserves as well as paydowns. Cash-basis loans decreased $103 million from June 30, 2003, primarily due to charge-offs taken against reserves and paydowns from borrowers in the power and energy and telecommunications industries as well as corporate borrowers in Argentina, Brazil and Hong Kong offset by increases in Mexico resulting from the transfer of loans from Transaction Services.

Transaction Services—which provides cash management, trade finance, custody and clearing services globally—reported net income of $203 million in the 2003 third quarter, up $74 million or 57% from the 2002 third quarter. The increase in the 2003 third quarter is due primarily to a lower provision for credit losses, lower effective tax rates related to a benefit on the sale of an investment and lower expenses resulting from expense control initiatives. Net income in the 2003 nine months increased $153 million or 35% from 2002, primarily due to a lower provision for credit losses and a lower effective tax rate.
As shown in the following table, average liability balances of $101 billion grew 17% compared to the 2002 third quarter primarily due to increases in Europe and Asia. Assets under custody reached $5.7 trillion, an increase of $0.4 trillion or 8% compared to the prior year.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $893 million in the 2003 third quarter decreased $18 million or 2% from the 2002 third quarter, primarily reflecting an unfavorable interest rate environment compared to 2002. Revenues, net of interest expense, of $2.714 billion in the 2003 nine months, decreased $16 million or 1%, primarily due to lower interest rates, and overall market weakness. These were partially offset by increased business volumes reflected by higher liability balances, gains on the early termination of intracompany deposits (which were offset inCapital Markets and Banking) and a benefit from foreign exchange currency translation.
Operating expenses of $618 million in the 2003 third quarter decreased $15 million or 2%, primarily reflecting staff related reduction. Operating expenses of $1.877 billion in the 2003 nine months decreased $39 million or 2% primarily reflecting expense control initiatives, partially offset by costs associated with the repositioning of the Company's business in Latin America, primarily severance-related.
The provision for credit losses of $3 million in the 2003 third quarter decreased by $85 million from the 2002 third quarter, primarily due to higher trade finance write-offs in Argentina in the prior-year quarter. The provision for credit losses of $24 million in the 2003 nine months decreased by $136 million from the 2002 nine months, primarily reflecting prior-year write-offs in Argentina, partially offset by 2003 provisions for selected borrowers in Brazil.
Cash-basis loans, which in theTransaction Services business are primarily trade finance receivables, were $201 million at September 30, 2003, $513 million at June 30, 2003, $572 million at December 31, 2002 and $509 million at September 30, 2002. Cash-basis loans were down $312 million from June 30, 2003 and $308 million from September 30, 2002, primarily due to a reclassification of cash-basis loans ($248 million) in Mexico fromTransaction Services toCapital Markets and Banking, along with charge-offs in Poland and Argentina.

The decrease in Other Corporate net losses in 2003 is primarily attributable to lower GCIB segment eliminations, which impacted revenues and operating expenses.

In addition, Private Client Services provides independent client-focused research to individuals and institutions around the world.
Private Client Services net income of $203 million in the 2003 third quarter increased $15 million or 8% from 2002, primarily reflecting higher commissions due to increased customer trading activity and increased asset-based fee revenue reflecting higher client asset levels, partially offset by a decline in net interest revenue from securities-based lending, higher production-related compensation, and higher advertising & marketing and legal expenses. Net income was $541 million in the 2003 nine months, down $87 million or 14% from 2002, primarily due to lower asset-based fee revenue.

Global Investment Management is comprised ofLife Insurance and Annuities, Private Bank and Asset Management. These businesses offer a broad range of life insurance, annuity, asset management and personalized wealth management products and services distributed to institutional, high-net-worth and retail clients.
Global Investment Management net income of $367 million in the 2003 third quarter and $1.265 billion in the 2003 nine months increased $53 million or 17% and $156 million or 14% from the comparable 2002 periods.Life Insurance and Annuities net income of $152 million in the 2003 third quarter and $578 million in the 2003 nine months increased $69 million or 83% and $144 million or 33% from the comparable 2002 periods. The increase in income of $69 million in the 2003 third quarter resulted from higher Travelers Life and Annuity (TLA) results of $159 million, partially offset by lower International Insurance Manufacturing (IIM) results of $90 million. The increase in TLA was driven by higher net realized insurance investment portfolio gains of $128 million, higher investment income and strong business volumes, partially offset by higher Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) amortization. The decline in IIM primarily resulted from impairments of Argentina Government Promissory Notes (GPNs) of $111 million and the impact of certain liability restructuring actions taken in the Argentina voluntary annuity business of $20 million.
The increase inLife Insurance and Annuities income of $144 million in the 2003 nine-month period reflects higher TLA results of $254 million, primarily due to higher net realized insurance investment portfolio gains of $233 million, partially offset by lower IIM results of $110 million. The IIM decline was driven by the Argentina actions of $131 million recorded in the 2003 third quarter, partially offset by an $18 million benefit from lower taxes in Asia due to the application of APB 23's indefinite investment criteria, as well as higher business volumes and lower tax rates in Mexico.
Private Bank net income was $143 million in the 2003 third quarter and $406 million in the 2003 nine months, up $26 million or 22% and $65 million or 19% from the comparable 2002 periods, primarily reflecting increased client trading and lending activity, partially offset by higher employee-related expenses and a higher cost of funds.
Asset Management net income was $72 million in the 2003 third quarter and $281 million in the 2003 nine months, a decline of $42 million or 37% and $53 million or 16% from the comparable 2002 periods. The 2003 third quarter income decline primarily reflects the impact of a $42 million impairment of a DAC asset relating to the Siembra Retirement Services business in Argentina, a $9 million impairment of Argentina GPNs and reduced fee revenues, partially offset by positive market action and the cumulative impact of positive net flows. The decline in the nine-month period was the result of the 2003 third quarter impairments in Argentina, negative market action, and reduced fee revenues, partially offset by lower expenses and the cumulative impact of positive net flows.

Global Investment Management net income increased $53 million in the 2003 third quarter and $156 million in the 2003 nine months from the comparable 2002 periods. The $53 million increase in the 2003 third quarter was primarily driven by increases in
27
North America of $158 million, Asia of $34 million and Mexico of $20 million, partially offset by a decrease in Latin America of $176 million. The $158 million increase in North America was driven by higherLife Insurance and Annuities results of $159 million, primarily resulting from improved net realized insurance investment portfolio gains/(losses). The increase in Asia of $34 million primarily reflects the benefit of lower taxes due to the application of APB 23's indefinite investment criteria as well as higher business volumes inLife Insurance and Annuities. Mexico's increase of $20 million primarily reflects higher business volumes and lower tax rates in bothLife Insurance and Annuities andAsset Management, as well as higher client trading revenues inPrivate Bank. The decrease in Latin America of $176 million primarily reflects $182 million in actions taken in Argentina, collectively recorded byLife Insurance and Annuities andAsset Management.
The $156 million increase in the 2003 nine-month period primarily reflects increases in North America of $238 million, Asia of $46 million, Mexico of $36 million and Japan of $20 million, partially offset by a $182 million decrease in Latin America. The $238 million increase in North America reflects higherLife Insurance and Annuities results of $254 million, primarily the result of improved net realized insurance investment portfolio gains/(losses) of $233 million. The $46 million increase in Asia's net income was primarily the result of lower taxes due to the application of APB 23, higher business volumes inLife Insurance and Annuities and higher client trading revenues in thePrivate Bank. The $36 million increase in Mexico primarily reflects higher business volumes and lower tax rates inLife Insurance and Annuities andAsset Management, as well as higher client trading revenues inPrivate Bank. Japan's increase of $20 million primarily resulted from higher client trading revenues inPrivate Bank, while the decrease of $182 million in Latin America was primarily the result of the $182 million in actions taken in Argentina, collectively recorded byLife Insurance and Annuities andAsset Management in the 2003 third quarter.

Life Insurance and Annuities comprises Travelers Life and Annuity (TLA) and International Insurance Manufacturing (IIM). TLA offers individual annuity, group annuity, individual life insurance products and Corporate Owned Life Insurance (COLI) products domestically. IIM provides annuities, credit, life, health, disability and other insurance products internationally, leveraging the existing distribution channels of theConsumer Finance,Retail Banking andAsset Management (retirement services) businesses. IIM primarily has operations in Mexico, EMEA, Latin America, Asia and Japan.
Net income of $152 million and $578 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $69 million or 83% and $144 million or 33% from the respective 2002 periods, reflecting lower net realized insurance investment portfolio losses, higher Net Investment Income (NII) and increased business volumes. These increases were partially offset by certain asset impairments and other actions taken in Argentina and an increase in the amortization of Deferred Acquisition Costs (DAC). The $69 million increase in the 2003 third quarter reflects higher TLA results of $159 million, offset by lower IIM results of $90 million. The $144 million increase in the 2003 nine-month period reflects higher TLA results of $254 million, offset by lower IIM results of $110 million.
TLA's net income was $229 million and $623 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, an increase of $159 million and $254 million, respectively, from the 2002 periods. The $159 million increase in the 2003 third quarter primarily resulted from higher net realized insurance investment portfolio gains of $128 million, largely resulting from the absence of prior-year impairments taken on investments in the energy sector. The remaining increase of $31 million resulted from higher investment income and strong business volumes, partially offset by increased DAC amortization. The $254 million increase in the 2003 nine months primarily resulted from higher net realized insurance investment portfolio gains of $233 million, largely resulting from the absence of prior-year impairments relating to WorldCom investments in the 2002 second quarter of $128 million and the absence of the 2002 third quarter impairments. The remaining increase of $21 million was driven by a $39 million tax benefit taken in the 2003 first quarter related to an adjustment to the Dividend Received Deduction and higher business volumes and fees, partially offset by increased DAC amortization and reduced investment yields.
IIM's net loss of $77 million in the 2003 third quarter was a decline in income of $90 million and primarily resulted from impairments of Argentina Government Promissory Notes (GPNs) of $111 million and the impact of certain liability restructuring actions taken in the Argentina voluntary annuity business of $20 million. The GPN impairment was the result of an Argentine government decree, which required the mandatory exchange (the Exchange) of existing GPNs to Argentine government bonds denominated in U.S. dollars. Upon the Exchange, the assets were considered impaired and written down to fair market value based on prevailing market
28
prices on the decree date. Certain GPNs, which were held in general accounts, were considered impaired through recognition as an insurance investment portfolio loss ($53 million). See Impact from Argentina's Economic Changes on page 11 for a further discussion of these actions. Other income items which offset the Argentina actions were an $18 million benefit of lower taxes due to the application of APB 23 indefinite investment criteria in Asia, higher investment income due to timing of $13 million, and higher business volumes and the impact of a lower tax rate in Mexico. IIM's net loss of $45 million in the 2003 nine-month period was a decline in income of $110 million and was driven by the Argentina actions of $131 million, partially offset by the application of APB 23 in Asia and higher business volumes and lower taxes in Mexico.
TLA's NII was $680 million and $1.989 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively, an increase of $60 million or 10% and $112 million or 6%, respectively, from the 2002 periods. The increase in both the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods primarily resulted from a larger invested asset base resulting from higher business volumes. Investment yields were 6.63% and 6.61% in the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods, respectively, compared to 6.57% and 6.92% in the respective 2002 periods. The decrease in investment yields in the 2003 nine-month period was driven by lower fixed income yields, which suffered from the lower rate environment and credit issues. Equity investment returns increased in both the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods, largely the result of risk arbitrage activity.
During the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods,Life Insurance and Annuities operating expenses of $208 million and $571 million, increased $84 million or 68% and $243 million or 74%, from the respective 2002 periods. TLA's expenses increased $39 million and $137 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods from the comparable 2002 periods, primarily resulting from an increase in DAC amortization of $29 million from the 2002 third quarter and $96 million from the 2002 nine-month period, respectively. The increase in DAC amortization expense was largely due to a higher amortization rate implemented in the 2002 fourth quarter resulting from the decrease in market values of individual annuity account balances. The increase in the 2003 nine-month period was also additionally impacted by a one-time decrease in DAC amortization of $22 million in the 2002 first quarter related to changes in the underlying lapse and interest rate assumptions in the individual annuity business. IIM's expenses increased $45 million and $106 million from the respective 2002 periods, driven by a change in the presentation of certain fee-sharing arrangements with various Global Consumer businesses. This change in presentation increased both revenues and expenses by $22 million and $73 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods, respectively. The remaining expense increase in both the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods was primarily the result of higher business volumes.
Travelers Life and Annuity
The majority of the annuity business and a substantial portion of the life business written by TLA are accounted for as investment contracts, such that the premiums are considered deposits and are not included in revenues. The following table shows net written premiums and deposits by product line:

Individual annuity net written premiums and deposits were $1.226 billion and $3.347 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, a decrease of 6% and 23%, respectively, from the 2002 periods. The decrease was driven by a decline in fixed annuity sales due to competitive pressures and current market perception of fixed rate policies. Variable annuity sales increased $137 million in the 2003 third quarter over the prior-year period primarily resulting from the recent increase in equity market conditions. The decline in variable annuity sales in the 2003 nine-month period of $347 million compared to 2002 was driven by the weak equity market conditions that existed during the majority of this time period. Individual annuity account balances and benefit reserves were $31.6 billion at September 30, 2003, an increase of $4.3 billion or 16% from the 2002 third quarter. The $4.3 billion increase reflects $3.1 billion in market appreciation of variable annuity investments subsequent to September 30, 2002, primarily driven by $2.6 billion which occurred in the second and third quarters of 2003. Net sales of $1.2 billion over the previous twelve months, which partially resulted from good in-force retention, also contributed to the account balance and benefit reserve growth.
29
Group annuity net written premiums and deposits (excluding the Company's employee pension plan deposits) were $2.409 billion and $5.881 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, an increase of 72% and 12% over the respective 2002 periods. The $1.0 billion increase in the 2003 third quarter and the $609 million increase in the 2003 nine months from the respective 2002 periods primarily reflected strong variable Guaranteed Investment Contract (GIC) sales, a fixed GIC sale of $200 million in the current quarter and the sale of one group pension close out contract totaling $290 million in the current quarter. The 2003 nine-month period includes additional fixed GIC sales of $800 million to a customer in the 2003 first quarter. The 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods also benefited from increased sales in most products, compared to the respective 2002 periods. Group annuity account balances and benefit reserves reached $24.9 billion at September 30, 2003, an increase of $2.2 billion or 10% from the 2002 third quarter, primarily reflecting the strong current quarter sales, higher fixed GIC production in the 2003 first quarter and continued strong retention in all products.
Net written premiums and deposits for the life insurance business were $292 million and $752 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, up $114 million or 64% and $70 million or 10%, respectively from the 2002 periods. The increase in the 2003 third quarter primarily related to higher direct periodic premiums and deposits of $61 million and higher single premium sales of $60 million, and includes the impact of higher COLI deposits. The $70 million increase in the nine-month period reflects strong single and periodic universal life sales, partially offset by lower COLI deposits. Life insurance in force was $86.9 billion at September 30, 2003, up 8% from $80.7 billion at September 30, 2002. Life insurance account balances and benefit reserves increased 23% to $4.5 billion at September 30, 2003 from $3.6 billion at September 30, 2002.

Private Bank provides personalized wealth management services for high-net-worth clients around the world.Private Banknet income was $143 million in the 2003 third quarter and $406 million in the 2003 nine months, up $26 million or 22% and $65 million or 19% from the 2002 periods, primarily reflecting increased client trading and lending activity, partially offset by higher incentive compensation expense associated with higher revenues, higher other employee related costs and the impact of a narrowing of Treasury spreads.
Client business volumes under management, which include custody accounts, assets under fee-based management, deposits and loans, were $186 billion at the end of the 2003 third quarter, up $23 billion or 14% from $163 billion at the end of the 2002 third quarter. The increase primarily reflects growth of $9 billion in other (principally custody) accounts, $6 billion in loans, $6 billion in banking and fiduciary deposits and $2 billion in assets under fee based management.
Revenues, net of interest expense, were $510 million in the 2003 third quarter and $1.49 billion in the 2003 nine months, up $96 million or 23% and $225 million or 18% from the respective 2002 periods. The increases reflect higher client trading, lending and banking activity in both the three- and nine-month periods, partially offset by the impact of a narrowing of Treasury spreads. The three-month period was additionally impacted by higher placement, management and performance fees. In the 2003 third quarter and nine months, the increased revenues reflect continued favorable trends in North America (including Mexico), up $24 million or 13% and $84 million or 15%, respectively, from the comparable 2002 periods, primarily in lending and client trading activity. International revenues increased $72 million or 32% from the 2002 third quarter and $141 million or 20% from the 2002 nine months, primarily due to growth in Japan of $29 million or 64% and $56 million or 38%, respectively (client trading), in Asia of $28 million or 37% and $66 million or 28%, respectively (client trading), and in Latin America of $11 million or 24% and $20 million or 14%, respectively (client trading).
Operating expenses of $298 million and $884 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months were up $61 million or 26% and $129 million or 17% from the respective 2002 periods, primarily reflecting increased incentive compensation associated with higher revenues, and higher other employee related costs including severance and increased salary and benefits costs due to a change in employee mix of front end sales staff. In the 2003 third quarter and nine months, the increased expenses reflect the increase in revenues in North America (including Mexico), with expenses up $12 million or 15% and $36 million or 15%, respectively, from the comparable 2002 periods, driven by higher incentive compensation and the impact of the inclusion of Banamex intoPrivate Bank's results beginning in August 2002. International expenses increased $49 million or 31% from the 2002 third quarter and $93 million or
30
18% from the 2002 nine months, primarily due to higher employee-related costs, including incentive compensation in Asia and Japan, and higher severance costs in EMEA. In the 2003 third quarter and nine months, Asia increased $17 million or 40% and $42 million or 32%, respectively; Japan increased $14 million or 52% and $29 million or 35%, respectively; and EMEA increased $13 million or 24% and $17 million or 9%, respectively.
The provision for credit losses was $2 million and $12 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, a decrease of $3 million from the 2002 third quarter and an increase of $1 million from the 2002 nine-month period. Net credit losses in the 2003 third quarter remained at a nominal level of 0.05% of average loans outstanding. Loans 90 days or more past due as of September 30, 2003 were $124 million or 0.36% of total loans outstanding, compared with $201 million or 0.70% as of September 30, 2002. The decline of $77 million primarily reflects decreases in EMEA and North America (excluding Mexico).
Average assets of $39 billion in the 2003 third quarter increased $10 billion or 34% from $29 billion in the 2002 third quarter. The increase from the prior-year period primarily related to increased lending activity (higher mortgage financing and re-financing activity, tailored loans and margin lending) and the consolidation of a previously unconsolidated entity due to changes in the contractual relationship with this entity.

- (1)
- Includes $32 billion and $29 billion in 2003 and 2002, respectively, forPrivate Bank clients.
- (2)
- Includes $38 billion and $34 billion in 2003 and 2002, respectively, of Travelers Property and Casualty Corp. assets whichAsset Management manages on a third-party basis following the spin-off.
Asset Management includes Citigroup Asset Management (CAM), Citigroup Alternative Investments (CAI) Institutional business, Banamex asset management and retirement services businesses and Citigroup's other retirement services businesses in North America and Latin America. These businesses offer institutional, high-net-worth and retail clients a broad range of investment alternatives from investment centers located around the world. Products and services offered include mutual funds, closed-end funds, separately managed accounts, unit investment trusts, alternative investments (including hedge funds, private equity and credit structures), variable annuities through affiliated and third-party insurance companies and pension administration services.
Net income of $72 million and $281 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months decreased $42 million or 37% and $53 million or 16% from the respective 2002 periods, primarily reflecting impairments of a Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) asset relating to the Retirement Services business in Argentina of $42 million and of Argentina Government Promissory Notes (GPNs) of $9 million. The GPN impairment was the result of an Argentine government decree, which required the Exchange (the Exchange) of existing GPNs to Argentine government bonds denominated in U.S. dollars. Upon the Exchange, the asset was considered impaired and written down to fair market value based on prevailing market prices on the decree date. See Impact from Argentina's Economic Changes on page 11 for a further discussion of these actions. Additional items impacting the 2003 third quarter and nine-month income variances were reduced fee revenues due to changes in product mix and revenue sharing arrangements with internal Citigroup distributors, partially offset by the cumulative impact of positive net flows. The 2003 third quarter experienced positive market action, while the 2003 nine-month period experienced negative market action. The 2003 nine-month period benefited from reduced expenses.
Assets under management for the 2003 third quarter were $495.4 billion, an increase of $51.6 billion or 12% from the 2002 third quarter. The increase primarily reflects positive market action of $32 billion in CAM, positive net flows (excluding U.S. Retail Money Market funds) of $17 billion, an increase in the CAI Institutional business of $5 billion and an increase of $4 billion in assets from Travelers Property and Casualty Corp. (TPC), whichAsset Management manages on a third-party basis following the August 20, 2002 distribution. These increases were partially offset by net outflows of U.S. Retail Money Market funds of $7 billion. Retail/Private Bank client assets were $219.9 billion as of September 30, 2003, up 9% compared to the prior-year period reflecting positive market action. Institutional client assets of $174.0 billion as of September 30, 2003 were up 16% compared to the prior-year period, reflecting the impact of positive market action and long-term product flows. Retirement Services assets were $12.2 billion as of September 30, 2003, up 15% from the prior-year period. Other assets under management of $89.3 billion as of September 30, 2003 were up 10% from the prior-year period, reflecting an increase in CAI Institutional and TPC assets.

Sales of proprietary mutual funds and managed account products at Private Client Services increased 20% in the 2003 third quarter and decreased 30% for the 2003 nine months from the respective 2002 periods to $4.3 billion and $12.0 billion. The 2003 third quarter improvement was driven by increased sales of managed accounts. The decrease in the 2003 nine-month period was primarily driven by weakness in equity markets and resulting declines in managed account products, and represented 30% and 29% of Private Client Services' retail channel sales in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively. Sales of mutual and money funds through Global Consumer's banking network (excluding Mexico) in the 2003 third quarter increased 28% to $2.2 billion and remained static in the 2003 nine-month period at $6.2 billion. These sales through Global Consumer's banking network (excluding Mexico) represented 35% of total sales in both the 2003 three and nine months, including $1.5 billion and $4.0 billion in International and $0.7 billion and $2.2 billion in the U.S., in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively. Of the $0.7 billion in the 2003 third quarter, Primerica sold $0.5 billion of proprietary U.S. mutual and money funds, representing 74% of Primerica's total fund sales, compared to 72% in the prior-year period. Of the $2.2 billion in the 2003 nine months, Primerica sold $1.4 billion of proprietary U.S. mutual and money funds, representing 73% of Primerica's total fund sales, compared to 72% in the prior-year period. Institutional long-term product sales of $5.7 billion in the 2003 third quarter, which include $3.2 billion of sales to GCIB clients, decreased 19% from the prior-year period. The 2002 third quarter included significant fixed income sales in North America and Japan. Institutional long-term product sales of $21.4 billion in the 2003 nine months, which include $14.5 billion of sales to GCIB clients, decreased 6% from the prior-year period.
Revenues, net of interest expense, of $444 million and $1.255 billion in the 2003 third quarter and nine months decreased $7 million or 2% and $141 million or 10% from the respective 2002 periods. The $7 million decline in the 2003 third quarter primarily resulted from the impact of reduced fee revenues, the GPN impairments in Argentina of $9 million and outflows of U.S. Retail Money Market funds, partially offset by positive market action and the cumulative impact of positive net flows. The $141 million decline in the 2003 nine-month period primarily resulted from reduced fee revenues, negative market action, the impact of increased insurance costs on fees earned in a Retirement Services business in Argentina and foreign currency translation in Argentina and Mexico, partially offset by the cumulative impact of positive net flows, the absence of a prior-year pesification loss in Argentina and significant peso devaluations in Argentina in the 2002 first quarter. The reduced fee revenues in both the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods resulted from changes in product mix and revenue sharing arrangements with internal Citigroup distributors, and a change in the presentation of certain fee sharing arrangements which decreased both revenues and expenses by $9 million and $29 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months, respectively.
Operating expenses of $322 million and $840 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $42 million or 15% and decreased $56 million or 6% from the respective 2002 periods. The increase of $42 million in the 2003 third quarter primarily reflected the DAC impairment in Argentina of $42 million. The decline in the 2003 nine-month period primarily reflected continued expense management, including a decline in incentive compensation, the change in presentation of certain fee sharing arrangements and the absence of 2002 first quarter restructuring charges in Argentina (Latin America Retirement Services), partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation in Mexico.

Proprietary Investment Activities is comprised of Citigroup's proprietary Private Equity investments, including venture capital activities and Other Investment Activities which includes Citigroup's proprietary investments in hedge funds and real estate investments, investments in countries that refinanced debt under the 1989 Brady Plan or plans of a similar nature, ownership of TPC shares and Citigroup's Alternative Investments (CAI) business, for which the net profits on products distributed through Citigroup'sAsset Management, Private Client Services andPrivate Bank businesses are reflected in the respective distributors' income statement through net revenues.
Revenues, net of interest expense, in the 2003 third quarter of $459 million increased $526 million from the 2002 third quarter, reflecting higher Private Equity revenues of $1.044 billion, primarily from higher net mark-to-market revenues on public investments, higher net impairment/valuation revenues and higher dividend/fee revenues, partially offset by lower Other Investment Activities revenues of $518 million. The decline in Other Investment Activities was driven by the absence of the 2002 third quarter gain on the sale of 399 Park Avenue of $527 million related to the portion of the building that the Company did not occupy. Operating expenses of $84 million in the 2003 third quarter increased $8 million from the 2002 third quarter primarily reflecting increased expenses in
32
CAI of $14 million, offset by lower costs of real estate investments of $5 million. Minority interest, after-tax, of $145 million in the 2003 third quarter increased $131 million from the prior-year period primarily due to the impact of dividends and a mark-to-market valuation on the recapitalization of an investment held within the Citigroup Venture Capital (CVC) Equity Partners Fund, a majority-owned private equity fund.
For the 2003 nine months, revenues, net of interest expense, of $721 million increased $726 million from the 2002 nine-month period, primarily reflecting higher Private Equity revenues of $1.137 billion, driven by higher net mark-to-market revenues on public investments, higher net impairment/valuation revenues and higher dividend/fee revenues, offset by lower Other Investment Activities revenues of $411 million, resulting from the absence of the prior-year gain on the sale of 399 Park Avenue. Operating expenses of $253 million in the 2003 nine-month period increased $77 million from the 2002 nine-month period primarily reflecting increased expenses in CAI of $68 million and in Private Equity of $12 million. The increase in CAI expenses results from the impact of CAI's contract with TPC, whereby CAI manages TPC's investments following the August 20, 2002 distribution, as well as from business growth. Minority interest, after-tax, of $170 million in the 2003 nine-month period increased $148 million from the comparable 2002 period primarily due to the 2003 third-quarter impact of dividends and a mark-to-market valuation on the recapitalization of an investment held within the CVC Equity Partners Fund.
See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on investments in fixed maturity and equity securities.
The following sections contain information concerning revenues, net of interest expense, for the two main investment classifications of Proprietary Investment Activities:
Private Equity includes equity and mezzanine debt financing on both a direct and indirect basis, including investments made by CVC Equity Partners Fund, to companies primarily located in the United States and Western Europe, investments in companies located in developing economies with a private equity focus, the investment portfolio related to the Banamex acquisition in August 2001 and CVC/Opportunity Equity Partners, LP (Opportunity). Opportunity is a third-party managed fund through which Citigroup co-invests in companies that were privatized by the government of Brazil in the mid-1990s.
As of September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002, Private Equity included assets of $6.114 billion and $6.203 billion, respectively, with the portfolio primarily invested in industrial, consumer goods, communication and technology companies.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $393 million in the 2003 third quarter increased $1.044 billion from the 2002 third quarter primarily relating to higher net mark-to-market gains on public securities of $518 million, higher net impairment/valuation revenues of $243 million, higher net realized gains on sales of investments of $61 million and higher other revenues of $222 million. The higher net mark-to-market gains on public securities primarily resulted from the absence of prior-year mark-to-market losses due to the existing equity market conditions in the 2002 third quarter. The higher net impairment/valuation revenues largely represent the absence of 2002 third quarter impairments on emerging markets investments (including Argentina) of $141 million. The increase in other revenues primarily related to dividends in the current quarter through an investment in the CVC Equity Partners Fund, from a private equity investment that was recapitalized and from an investment that had an initial public offering.
For the 2003 nine months, revenues, net of interest expense, of $474 million increased $1.137 billion from the 2002 nine-month period primarily relating to higher net mark-to-market gains on public securities of $527 million due to the prior-year market conditions, higher net impairment/valuation revenues of $239 million primarily due to the absence of 2002 impairments on emerging markets investments, and higher other revenues of $289 million due to the 2003 third quarter dividends received in the CVC Equity Partners Fund.
Other Investment Activities includes CAI, various proprietary investments, including Citigroup's ownership interest in TPC's outstanding equity securities, certain hedge fund investments and the LDC Debt/Refinancing portfolios. The LDC Debt/Refinancing portfolios include investments in certain countries that refinanced debt under the 1989 Brady Plan or plans of a similar nature and earnings are generally derived from interest and restructuring gains/(losses).
33
As of September 30, 2003, Other Investment Activities included assets of $2.958 billion, including $1.606 billion in TPC shares, $750 million in hedge funds, the majority of which represents money managed for TPC, $409 million in the LDC Debt/Refinancing portfolios and $193 million in other assets. As of September 30, 2002, total assets of Other Investment Activities were $2.850 billion, including $1.335 billion in TPC shares, $629 million in hedge funds, $621 million in the LDC Debt/Refinancing portfolios and $265 million in other assets.

Revenues, net of interest expense, in the 2003 third quarter of $66 million, decreased $518 million from the 2002 third quarter, primarily resulting from the absence of the prior-year gain of $527 million on the sale of 399 Park Avenue and lower hedge fund results of $12 million, partially offset by an $8 million increase in CAI.
For the 2003 nine months, revenues, net of interest expense, of $247 million decreased $411 million from the 2002 nine-month period, primarily resulting from the absence of the prior-year gain on the sale of 399 Park Avenue, partially offset by a $65 million increase in CAI, $20 million from dividends earned on the TPC shares, and a $13 million increase from improved hedge fund results.

Corporate/Other includes net corporate treasury results, corporate expenses, certain intersegment eliminations, the results of discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of an accounting change and taxes not allocated to the individual businesses.
Revenues, net of interest expense, of $122 million and $407 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months decreased $21 million and $121 million, respectively, from the 2002 periods. The three-month decrease was driven by lower net treasury results, partially offset by the impact of higher intersegment eliminations. The lower net treasury results were primarily due to lower realized gains on fixed income investments, partially offset by favorable interest rate positioning. The nine-month decrease was driven by lower intersegment eliminations, partially offset by higher net treasury results. The increased treasury revenues resulted from favorable interest rate positioning, offset by lower realized gains on fixed income investments.
Operating expenses of $160 million and $503 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine months increased $10 million and decreased $50 million, respectively, from the 2002 periods. The third quarter increase was primarily due to increases in net unallocated corporate costs, including employee-related expenses, and a $24 million expense for the contribution of appreciated venture capital securities to the Citigroup Foundation, offset by lower intersegment eliminations. The Citigroup Foundation contribution had minimal impact on Citigroup's earnings after related tax benefits. The nine-month decrease was primarily due to lower intersegment eliminations, offset
34
by higher unallocated corporate costs and the contribution to the Citigroup Foundation. The increase in unallocated corporate costs included higher insurance, employee-related and legal costs. The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses in both the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods are the result of intersegment eliminations.
Income tax benefits of $176 million and $167 million in the 2003 third quarter and nine-month periods include the impact of a tax reserve release of $200 million that had been held at the legacy Associates' businesses and was deemed to be in excess of expected tax liabilities. Income tax benefits of $63 million and $34 million in the 2002 third quarter and nine months, respectively, includes the tax benefit resulting from the loss incurred on the sale of the Associates property and casualty operations to TPC, which was spun-off in the 2002 third quarter.
Discontinued operations, after-tax, in the 2002 third quarter and nine months (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) include $117 million and $717 million, respectively, from the operations of TPC. The 2002 third quarter and nine-month periods also include after-tax gains on the sale of stock by a subsidiary of $97 million and $1.061 billion ($1.270 billion pre-tax), respectively, as a result of the TPC IPO of 231 million shares of its class A common stock. The $1.061 billion was recognized in the 2002 first quarter, and was increased by $97 million in the 2002 third-quarter due to the receipt of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service and the resolution of certain tax matters related to the IPO. The 2002 nine-month period cumulative effect of accounting change of $47 million reflects the 2002 first quarter impact of adopting the remaining provisions of SFAS 142 relating to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets.

MANAGING GLOBAL RISK
The Citigroup Risk Management framework recognizes the wide range and diversity of global business activities by balancing strong corporate oversight with defined independent risk management functions at the business level. The Citigroup Risk Management Framework is described in detail in Citigroup's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The risk management framework is grounded on the following seven principles, which apply universally across all businesses and all risk types:
Integration of Business and Risk Management—Risk management is integrated within the business plan and strategy.
Risk Ownership—All risks and resulting returns are owned and managed by an accountable business unit.
Independent Oversight—Risk limits are approved by both business management and independent risk management.
Policies—All risk management policies are clearly and formally documented.
Risk Identification and Measurement—All risks are measured using defined methodologies, including stress testing.
Limits and Metrics—All risks are managed within a limit framework.
Risk Reporting—All risks are comprehensively reported across the organization.
The following sections summarize the processes for managing credit, market, operational and country risks within Citigroup's major businesses.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Credit risk is the potential for financial loss resulting from the failure of a borrower or counterparty to honor its financial or contractual obligation. Credit risk arises in many of the Company's business activities including lending activities, sales and trading activities, derivatives activities, and securities transactions settlement activities, and when the Company acts as an intermediary on behalf of its clients and other third parties. The credit risk management process at Citigroup relies on corporate-wide standards to ensure consistency and integrity, with business-specific policies and practices to ensure applicability and ownership.

CONSUMER PORTFOLIO REVIEW
In the consumer portfolio, credit loss experience is often expressed in terms of annualized net credit losses as a percentage of average loans. Pricing and credit policies reflect the loss experience of each particular product and country. Consumer loans are generally written off no later than a predetermined number of days past due on a contractual basis, or earlier in the event of bankruptcy. The specific write-off criteria is set according to loan product and country.
Commercial Markets, which is included withinRetail Banking, includes loans and leases made principally to small and middle market businesses. Commercial Markets loans are placed on a nonaccrual basis when it is determined that the payment of interest or principal is doubtful of collection or when interest or principal is past due for 90 days or more, except when the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Commercial Markets non-accrual loans are not strictly determined on a delinquency basis, therefore they have been presented as a separate component in the consumer credit disclosures.
The following table summarizes delinquency and net credit loss experience in both the managed and on-balance sheet loan portfolios in terms of loans 90 days or more past due, net credit losses, and as a percentage of related loans. The table also summarizes the accrual status of Commercial Markets loans as a percentage of related loans. The managed loan portfolio includes credit card receivables held-for-sale and securitized and the table reconciles to a held basis, the comparable GAAP measure. Only North America Cards from a product view, and North America from a regional view, are impacted. Although a managed basis presentation is not in conformity with GAAP, the Company believes it provides a representation of performance and key indicators of the credit card business that is consistent with the way management reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Furthermore, investors utilize information about the credit quality of the entire managed portfolio as the results of both the held and securitized portfolios impact the overall performance of the Cards business. For a further discussion of managed basis reporting see the Cards business on Page 16 and Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Total delinquencies 90 days or more past due (excluding Commercial Markets) in the managed portfolio were $8.311 billion or 2.23% of loans at September 30, 2003, compared to $8.341 billion or 2.31% of loans at June 30, 2003 and $7.658 billion or 2.36% at September 30, 2002. Total cash-basis loans in Commercial Markets were $1.283 billion or 3.17% of loans at September 30, 2003, compared to $1.165 billion or 2.76% of loans at June 30, 2003 and $1.234 billion or 3.23% of loans at September 30, 2002. Total managed net credit losses (excluding Commercial Markets) in the 2003 third quarter were $2.901 billion and the related loss ratio was 3.14%, compared to $2.953 billion and 3.26% in the 2003 second quarter and $2.715 billion and 3.32% in the 2002 third quarter. In Commercial Markets, total net credit losses were $50 million and the related loss ratio was 0.47% in the 2003 third quarter, compared to $139 million and 1.30% in the 2003 second quarter and $147 million and 1.50% in the 2002 third quarter. For a discussion of trends by business, see business discussions on pages 15 - 21 and page 30.
Citigroup's allowance for credit losses of $11.243 billion is available to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the entire portfolio. For analytical purposes only, the portion of Citigroup's allowance for credit losses attributed to the consumer portfolio was $7.038 billion at September 30, 2003, $7.136 billion at June 30, 2003 and $6.476 billion at September 30, 2002. The increase in the allowance for credit losses from a year ago was primarily due to additions of $452 million and $85 million associated with the acquisitions of GSB and Diners Club Europe, respectively, as well as the impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by the write-off of Argentine compensation notes. The level of the consumer allowance also reflected improved credit conditions in Latin America, mainly in Argentina, and North America that were partially offset by deteriorating credit conditions in Japan and Germany.
On balance sheet consumer loans of $337.1 billion increased $45.1 billion or 15% from September 30, 2002. The increase from a year ago was primarily driven by the additions of the GSB and Home Depot portfolios, combined with growth in mortgage and real estate-secured loans in Consumer Assets, Consumer Finance and the Private Bank and the impact of strengthening currencies. These increases were partially offset by declines in North America Cards, CitiCapital and Japan. On-balance sheet loans in North America Cards declined $3.3 billion or 8% as increased securitization levels and the 2003 second quarter sale of $1.7 billion of non-strategic portfolios were partially offset by the addition of the Home Depot private-label portfolio. Loans in CitiCapital declined reflecting the continued liquidation of non-core portfolios including a decline of approximately $1.2 billion resulting from the 2003 third quarter sale of CitiCapital Fleet Services. The decline in Japan reflected continued contraction in the Consumer Finance portfolio.
Net credit losses, delinquencies and the related ratios are affected by the credit performance of the portfolios, including bankruptcies, unemployment, global economic conditions, portfolio growth and seasonal factors, as well as macro-economic and regulatory policies. In Japan, net credit losses and the related loss ratio may increase from the 2003 third quarter as a result of current economic conditions, including rising bankruptcy filings and unemployment rates, and the impact of statutory changes.

CORPORATE PORTFOLIO REVIEW
Corporate loans are identified as impaired and placed on a nonaccrual basis when it is determined that the payment of interest or principal is doubtful of collection or when interest or principal is past due for 90 days or more. Impaired corporate loans are written down to the extent that principal is judged to be uncollectible. Impaired collateral-dependent loans are written down to the lower of cost or collateral value.
The following table summarizes corporate cash-basis loans and net credit losses:

Corporate cash-basis loans were $3.789 billion, $4.204 billion, $3.995 billion and $3.932 billion at September 30, 2003, June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2002, respectively. Corporate cash-basis loans decreased $415 million and $143 million from June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002, respectively. The decrease inCapital Markets and Banking from June 30, 2003 to September 30, 2003 ($103 million) was the result of charge-offs taken against reserves and paydowns from borrowers in the power and energy and telecommunications industries as well as corporate borrowers in Argentina, Brazil and Hong Kong offset by increases in Mexico resulting from the transfer of loans fromTransaction Services. The increase inCapital Markets and Banking from September 30, 2002 to September 30, 2003 ($165 million) was due to borrowers in the power and energy industry as well as the transfer of loans fromTransactions Services ($248 million) offset by decreases due to charge-offs against reserves as well as paydowns.Transaction Services cash-basis loans as of September 30, 2003 decreased for the periods noted principally from the transfer of loans toCapital Markets and Banking referenced above along with charge-offs in Poland and Argentina.
Total corporate Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) was $95 million, $89 million, $75 million and $117 million at September 30, 2003, June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2002, respectively. The $22 million decrease from September 30, 2002 is primarily due to continued improvements in the North America real estate portfolio, partially offset by increased activity of a joint venture which purchases distressed properties. The $6 million increase from June 30, 2003 is also primarily due to increased activity of the same joint venture.
Total corporate loans outstanding at September 30, 2003 were $103 billion as compared to $109 billion at June 30, 2003, $110 billion at December 31, 2002 and $110 billion at September 30, 2002.
Total corporate net credit losses of $331 million in the 2003 third quarter decreased $130 million compared to the 2002 third quarter, primarily due to an $88 million decrease inTransaction Services reflecting prior-year trade finance write-offs in Argentina. Net credit losses increased $74 million compared to the 2003 second quarter, primarily due to a $75 million increase inCapital Markets and Banking driven by higher write-offs in the power and energy industry.
The allowance for credit losses is established by management based upon estimates of probable losses inherent in the portfolio. This evaluative process includes the utilization of statistical models to analyze such factors as default rates, both historic and projected, geographic and industry concentrations and environmental factors. Larger non-homogeneous credits are evaluated on an individual loan basis examining such factors as the borrower's financial strength, payment history, the financial stability of any guarantors and for secured loans, the realizable value of any collateral. Additional reserves are established to provide for imprecision caused by the use of historical and projected loss data.

Citigroup's allowance for credit losses for loans, leases, lending commitments and letters of credit of $11.369 billion is available to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the entire portfolio. For analytical purposes only, the portion of Citigroup's allowance for credit losses for loans, leases, lending commitments and letters of credit attributed to the corporate portfolio was $4.331 billion at September 30, 2003, compared to $4.598 billion at June 30, 2003, $4.647 billion at December 31, 2002 and $4.354 billion at September 30, 2002. Included in the $4.331 billion of reserves at September 30, 2003, $297 million is held for unfunded commitments and $126 million for letters of credit. The allowance attributed to corporate loans, leases and lending commitments as a percentage of corporate loans was 4.08% at September 30, 2003, as compared to 4.07%, 4.07%, and 3.85%, at June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2002, respectively. The $267 million decrease in total corporate reserves from June 30, 2003 primarily reflects write-offs against previously established reserves in the power and energy industry and Argentina and a $100 million reserve release. The $100 million release was geographically attributed to Mexico ($35 million), North America ($32.5 million), Asia, excluding Japan ($16.25 million), and Latin America ($16.25 million). The $100 million reserve release was primarily due to an improving credit environment as evidenced by a decline in the estimates of probable losses inherent in the portfolio and declines in classified and cash-basis loans. Losses on corporate lending activities and the level of cash-basis loans can vary widely with respect to timing and amount, particularly within any narrowly defined business or loan type. Corporate net credit losses and cash-basis loans are expected to continue to improve compared to 2002 levels as the global economy strengthens, offset by potential sovereign or regulatory actions, and other factors. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Market risk at Citigroup—like credit risk—is managed through corporate-wide standards and business policies and procedures. Market risks are measured in accordance with established standards to ensure consistency across businesses and the ability to aggregate like risks at the Citigroup level. Each business is required to establish, and have approved by independent market risk management, a market risk limit framework, including risk measures, limits and controls, that clearly defines approved risk profiles and is within the parameters of Citigroup's overall risk appetite.
Businesses, working in conjunction with independent Market Risk Management, must ensure that market risks are independently measured, monitored and reported to ensure transparency in risk-taking activities and integrity in risk reports. In all cases, the businesses are ultimately responsible for the market risks that they take and for remaining within their defined limits.
Market risk encompasses liquidity risk and price risk, both of which arise in the normal course of business of a global financial intermediary. Liquidity risk is the risk that some entity, in some location and in some currency, may be unable to meet a financial commitment to a customer, creditor, or investor when due. Liquidity risk is discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section. Price risk is the risk to earnings that arises from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices, and in their implied volatilities. Price risk arises in Non-trading Portfolios, as well as in Trading Portfolios.
Non-Trading Portfolios
During the second quarter of 2003, Citigroup implemented a revised market risk management policy for its non-trading portfolios. Under this policy there is a uniform set of standards for defining, measuring, limiting and reporting of market risk in non-trading portfolios in order to ensure consistency across businesses, stability in methodologies and transparency of risk.
Price risk in non-trading portfolios is measured predominantly through Interest Rate Exposure and Factor Sensitivity techniques. These measurement techniques are supplemented with additional tools, including stress testing and cost-to-close analysis.
Business units manage the potential earnings effect of interest rate movements by managing the asset and liability mix, either directly or through the use of derivative financial products. These include interest rate swaps and other derivative instruments that are designated and effective as hedges. The utilization of derivatives is managed in response to changing market conditions as well as to changes in the characteristics and mix of the related assets and liabilities.
Interest Rate Exposure is the primary corporate-wide method for measuring price risk in Citigroup's non-trading portfolios (excluding the Insurance companies). Interest Rate Exposure measures the pretax earnings impact of specified upward and downward instantaneous parallel 50, 100 and 200 basis point shifts in the individual currency yield curve assuming a static portfolio. Citigroup measures this impact over one-year, five-year, and ten-year time horizons under business-as-usual conditions. The Interest Rate Exposure is calculated separately for each currency and reflects the repricing gaps in the position as well as option positions, both explicit and embedded.

The following table illustrates the impact to Citigroup's pretax earnings over a one-year and five-year time horizon from a 100 basis point increase and a 100 basis point decrease in the yield curves applicable to various currencies, the primary scenarios evaluated by senior management.

- U.S. dollar amounts as of September 30, 2002 were restated to conform to the current period's presentation, primarily reflecting the adoption of consistent assumptions for the treatment of capital across currencies under a revised Citigroup market risk management policy for non-trading portfolios issued in 2002 and implemented in 2003. Mexican peso amounts as of September 30, 2002 have been restated from a statistical equivalent basis to a 100 basis point change in interest rates.
- (3)
- Prior-period data as of September 30, 2002 for the Euro, Japanese Yen and Pound Sterling under the revised Citigroup market risk management policy is not available. Earnings-at-risk for these currencies was not material in prior periods.
- (4)
- Not meaningful. A 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would imply negative rates for the Japanese Yen yield curve.
As of September 30, 2003, a 100 basis point increase in U.S. dollar interest rates would have a potential negative impact on Citigroup's pretax earnings over the next 12 months of approximately $745 million and a potential positive impact of $598 million from an interest rate decrease. The potential discounted impact on pretax earnings over five years is an increase of $505 million from an increase in interest rates and a decrease of $1.258 billion from an interest rate decrease. The change in Interest Rate Exposure from June 30, 2003 primarily reflects Citigroup's view of prevailing interest rates as well as changes in pre-payments for mortgages and mortgage-related investments. The change from the prior year reflects changes in the asset and liability mix, Citigroup's view of prevailing interest rates, as well as changes in pre-payments for mortgages and mortgage-related investments.
As of September 30, 2003, a 100 basis point increase in Mexican peso interest rates would have a potential positive impact on Citigroup's pretax earnings over the next 12 months of approximately $20 million and a potential negative impact of $20 million from an interest rate decrease. The potential discounted impact on pretax earnings over five years is an increase of $101 million from an increase in interest rates and a decrease of $101 million from an interest rate decrease. The change in Interest Rate Exposure from June 30, 2003, as well as the changes from the prior-year third quarter, reflects a change in the asset and liability mix in the balance sheet.
Insurance Companies
The table below reflects the estimated decrease in the fair value of financial instruments held in the Insurance companies, as a result of a 100 basis point increase in interest rates.

A significant portion of the Insurance companies' liabilities (e.g., insurance policy and claims reserves) are not financial instruments and are excluded from the above sensitivity analysis. Corresponding changes in fair value of these accounts, based on the present value of estimated cash flows, would materially mitigate the impact of the net decrease in values implied above. The analysis also excludes all financial instruments, including long-term debt, identified with trading activities. The analysis reflects the estimated gross change in value resulting from a change in interest rates only and is not comparable to the Interest Rate Exposure used for the Citigroup non-trading portfolios or the Value-at-Risk used for the trading portfolios.

Trading Portfolios
Price risk in trading portfolios is measured through a complementary set of tools, including Factor Sensitivities, Value-at-Risk, and Stress Testing. Each trading portfolio has its own market risk limit framework, encompassing these measures and other controls, including permitted product lists and a new product approval process for complex products, established by the business and approved by independent market risk management.
Factor Sensitivities are defined as the change in the value of a position for a defined change in a market risk factor (e.g., the change in the value of a Treasury bill for a 1 basis point change in interest rates). It is the responsibility of independent market risk management to ensure that factor sensitivities are calculated, monitored and, in some cases, limited, for all relevant risks taken in a trading portfolio. Value-at-Risk estimates the potential decline in the value of a position or a portfolio, under normal market conditions, over a one-day holding period at a 99% confidence level. The Value-at-Risk method incorporates the Factor Sensitivities of the trading portfolio with the volatilities and correlations of those factors.
Stress Testing is performed on trading portfolios on a regular basis to estimate the impact of extreme market movements. Stress Testing is performed on individual trading portfolios, as well as on aggregations of portfolios and businesses, as appropriate. It is the responsibility of independent market risk management, in conjunction with the businesses, to develop stress scenarios, review the output of periodic stress testing exercises, and utilize the information to make judgments as to the ongoing appropriateness of exposure levels and limits.
New and/or complex products in trading portfolios are required to be reviewed and approved by the Capital Markets Approval Committee (CMAC). The CMAC is responsible for ensuring that all relevant risks are identified and understood, and can be measured, managed and reported in accordance with applicable business policies and practices. The CMAC is made up of senior representatives from market and credit risk management, legal, accounting, operations and other support areas, as required.
The level of price risk exposure at any given point in time depends on the market environment and expectations of future price and market movements, and will vary from period to period.
For Citigroup's major trading centers, the aggregate pretax Value-at-Risk in the trading portfolios was $74 million at September 30, 2003. Daily exposures averaged $78 million during the third quarter of 2003 and ranged from $66 million to $97 million.

OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems or from external events. It includes reputation and franchise risks associated with business practices or market conduct that the Company may undertake with respect to activities as principal, as well as agent, or through a special purpose vehicle.
The Citigroup Operational Risk Policy codifies the core governing principles for operational risk management and provides the framework to identify, control, monitor, measure, and report operational risks in a consistent manner across the Company.
COUNTRY AND CROSS-BORDER RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Country Risk
The Citigroup Country Risk Committee is chaired by senior international business management, and includes as its members business managers and independent risk managers from around the world. The committee's primary objective is to strengthen the management of country risk, defined as the total risk to the Company of an event that impacts a country. The committee regularly reviews all risk exposures within a country, makes recommendations as to actions, and follows up to ensure appropriate accountability.
Cross-Border Risk
The Company's cross-border outstandings reflect various economic and political risks, including those arising from restrictions on the transfer of funds as well as the inability to obtain payment from customers on their contractual obligations as a result of actions taken by foreign governments such as exchange controls, debt moratorium and restrictions on the remittance of funds.
Management oversight of cross-border risk is performed through a formal country risk review process that includes setting of cross-border limits, at least annually, in each country in which Citigroup has cross-border exposure, monitoring of economic conditions globally and within individual countries with proactive action as warranted, and the establishment of internal risk management policies. Under FFIEC guidelines, total cross-border outstandings include cross-border claims on third parties as well as investments in and funding of local franchises. Cross-border claims on third parties (trade, short-term, and medium- and long-term claims) include cross-border loans, securities, deposits with banks, investments in affiliates, and other monetary assets, as well as net revaluation gains on foreign exchange and derivative products.
The cross-border outstandings are reported by assigning externally guaranteed outstandings to the country of the guarantor and outstandings for which tangible, liquid collateral is held outside of the obligor's country to the country in which the collateral is held. For securities received as collateral, outstandings are assigned to the domicile of the issuer of the securities.
Investments in and funding of local franchises represents the excess of local country assets over local country liabilities. Local country assets are claims on local residents recorded by branches and majority-owned subsidiaries of Citigroup domiciled in the country, adjusted for externally guaranteed outstandings and certain collateral. Local country liabilities are obligations of branches and majority-owned subsidiaries of Citigroup domiciled in the country, for which no cross-border guarantee is issued by Citigroup offices outside the country.
In regulatory reports under FFIEC guidelines, cross-border resale agreements are presented based on the domicile of the issuer of the securities that are held as collateral. However, for purposes of the following table, cross-border resale agreements are presented based on the domicile of the counterparty because the counterparty has the legal obligation for repayment. Similarly, under FFIEC guidelines, long trading securities positions are required to be reported on a gross basis. However, for purposes of the following table, certain long and short securities positions are presented on a net basis consistent with internal cross-border risk management policies, reflecting a reduction of risk from offsetting positions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Citigroup's primary source of incremental capital resources is its net earnings. Other sources include proceeds from the issuance of common and preferred securities, trust preferred securities, senior debt, subordinated debt and commercial paper. Citigroup can also generate funds by securitizing various financial assets including credit card receivables and other receivables generally secured by collateral such as single-family residences and automobiles, or monetizing investment securities.
Citigroup uses these capital resources to pay dividends to its stockholders, to repurchase its shares in the market or otherwise pursuant to Board-of-Directors approved plans, to support organic growth, to make acquisitions and to service its debt obligations.
As a financial holding company, substantially all of Citigroup's net earnings are generated within its operating subsidiaries including Citibank, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (CGMI), CitiFinancial, and Travelers Insurance Company (TIC). Each of these subsidiaries makes these funds available to Citigroup in the form of dividends. The subsidiaries' dividend paying abilities are limited by certain covenant restrictions in credit agreements and/or by regulatory requirements. Certain of these subsidiaries are also subject to rating agency requirements that also impact their capitalization levels.
During 2003, it is not anticipated that any restrictions on the subsidiaries' dividending capability will restrict Citigroup's ability to meet its obligations as and when they become due. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
Under its long-standing repurchase program, the Company buys back shares in the market or otherwise from time to time. At September 30, 2003, there was $3.4 billion remaining under the authorized program.

- All repurchases were transacted through Smith Barney, which is included within the Private Client Services segment, except for 5.3 million shares in the 2003 third quarter which were repurchased in a private equity transaction. These shares were purchased at prevailing market rates from the Banamex Employee Pension Fund in an effort to diversify that fund's assets.
On July 14, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 75% increase in the quarterly dividend on the Company's common stock to 35 cents a share from 20 cents a share. The increase in the quarterly dividend is part of an effort to reallocate capital to dividends and reduce share repurchases. Additionally, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the "Plan") for holders of Citigroup common stock. Registered holders of Citigroup common stock may elect to participate in the Plan and have some or all of their dividends reinvested in Citigroup common stock. On October 21, 2003, the Company declared a 35 cent dividend on its common stock.
Citigroup, Citicorp and certain other subsidiaries issue commercial paper directly to investors. Citigroup and Citicorp, both of which are bank holding companies, maintain combined liquidity reserves of cash, securities and unused bank lines of credit to support their combined outstanding commercial paper. Citigroup maintains sufficient liquidity to meet all maturing unsecured debt obligations due within a one-year time horizon without incremental access to the unsecured markets.
Citigroup has unutilized bilateral committed revolving credit facilities in the amount of $3.5 billion that expire on various dates in 2003 through 2005. Under these facilities, Citigroup is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholders' equity (as defined in the agreements). Citigroup exceeded this requirement by approximately $70.3 billion at September 30, 2003.
Associates First Capital Corporation (Associates), a subsidiary of Citicorp, had a combination of unutilized credit facilities of $0.7 billion as of September 30, 2003 which have maturities within 2003. All of these facilities are guaranteed by Citicorp. In connection with the facilities, Citicorp is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholder's equity (as defined in the agreements). At September 30, 2003, this requirement was exceeded by approximately $60.4 billion. Citicorp has also guaranteed various debt obligations of Associates and CitiFinancial Credit Company (CCC), indirect subsidiaries of Citicorp.
Borrowings under bank lines of credit may be at interest rates based on LIBOR, CD rates, the prime rate, or bids submitted by the banks. Each company pays its banks facility fees for its lines of credit.
Citicorp, CGMHI, and some of their nonbank subsidiaries have credit facilities with Citicorp's subsidiary banks, including Citibank, N.A. Borrowings under these facilities must be secured in accordance with Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act.
Management of Liquidity
Management of liquidity at Citigroup is the responsibility of the Corporate Treasurer. A uniform liquidity risk management policy exists for Citigroup and its major operating subsidiaries. Under this policy, there is a single set of standards for the measurement of liquidity risk in order to ensure consistency across businesses, stability in methodologies and transparency of risk. Management of liquidity at each operating subsidiary and/or country is performed on a daily basis and is monitored by Corporate Treasury.
A primary tenet of Citigroup's liquidity management is strong decentralized liquidity management at each of its principal operating subsidiaries and in each of its countries, combined with an active corporate oversight function. Along with the role of the Corporate Treasurer, the Global Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) undertakes this oversight responsibility. The Global ALCO functions as an oversight forum comprised of Citigroup's Chief Financial Officer, Chief Risk Officer, Corporate Treasurer, independent Senior Treasury Risk Officer, Head of Risk Architecture and the senior corporate and business treasurers and business chief financial officers. One objective of the Global ALCO is to monitor and review the overall liquidity and balance sheet position of Citigroup and its principal subsidiaries and to address corporate-wide policies and make recommendations back to senior management and the business units. Similarly, ALCOs are also established for each country and/or major line of business.
Each major operating subsidiary and/or country must prepare an annual funding and liquidity plan for review by the Corporate Treasurer and approval by the independent Senior Treasury Risk Officer. The funding and liquidity plan includes analysis of the
47
balance sheet as well as the economic and business conditions impacting the liquidity of the major operating subsidiary and/or country. As part of the funding and liquidity plan, liquidity limits, liquidity ratios, market triggers, and assumptions for periodic stress tests are established and approved.
Liquidity limits establish boundaries for potential market access in business-as-usual conditions and are monitored against the liquidity position on a daily basis. These limits are established based on the size of the balance sheet, depth of the market, the experience level of local management, the stability of the liabilities, and liquidity of the assets. Finally, the limits are subject to the evaluation of the entities' stress test results. Generally, limits are established such that in stress scenarios, entities need to be self-funded or net providers of liquidity.
A series of standard corporate-wide liquidity ratios have been established to monitor the structural elements of Citigroup's liquidity. For bank entities these include measures of liquid assets against liquidity gaps, core deposits to loans, long-term assets to long-term liabilities and deposits to loans. In addition, several measures exist to review potential concentrations of funding by individual name, product, industry, or geography. For the Parent Company, Insurance Entities and the Broker/Dealer, there are ratios established for liquid assets against short-term obligations. Triggers to elicit management discussion have been established against these ratios. In addition, each individual major operating subsidiary or country establishes targets against these ratios and may monitor other ratios as approved in its funding and liquidity plan.
Market triggers are internal or external market or economic factors that may imply a change to market liquidity or Citigroup's access to the markets. Citigroup market triggers are monitored by the Corporate Treasurer and the independent Senior Treasury Risk Officer and are discussed with the Global ALCO. Appropriate market triggers are also established and monitored for each major operating subsidiary and/or country as part of the funding and liquidity plans. Local triggers are reviewed with the local country or business ALCO and independent risk management.
Periodic liquidity stress testing is performed for each major operating subsidiary and/or country. The scenarios include assumptions about significant changes in key funding sources, credit ratings, contingent uses of funding, and political and economic conditions in certain countries. The results of stress tests of individual countries and operating subsidiaries are reviewed to ensure that each individual major operating subsidiary or country is self-funded or a net provider of liquidity. In addition, a Contingency Funding Plan is prepared on a periodic basis for Citigroup. The plan includes detailed policies, procedures, roles and responsibilities, and the results of corporate stress tests. The product of these stress tests is a menu of alternatives that can be utilized by the Corporate Treasurer in a liquidity event.
Citigroup's funding sources are well-diversified across funding types and geography, a benefit of the strength of the global franchise. Funding for the Parent Company and its major operating subsidiaries includes a large geographically diverse retail and corporate deposit base, a significant portion of which is expected to be long-term and stable and is considered core. Other sources of funding include collateralized borrowings, securitizations (primarily credit card and mortgages), long-term debt, and purchased/wholesale funds. This funding is significantly enhanced by Citigroup's strong capital position. Each of Citigroup's major operating subsidiaries finances its operations on a basis consistent with its capitalization, regulatory structure and the operating environment in which it operates.
Other liquidity and capital resource considerations for Citigroup follow.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Citigroup and its subsidiaries are involved with several types of off-balance sheet arrangements, including special purpose entities (SPEs), lines and letters of credit, and loan commitments. The principal uses of SPEs are to obtain sources of liquidity by securitizing certain of Citigroup's financial assets, to assist our clients in securitizing their financial assets, and to create other investment products for our clients.
SPEs may be organized as trusts, partnerships, or corporations. In a securitization, the company transferring assets to an SPE converts those assets into cash before they would have been realized in the normal course of business. The SPE obtains the cash needed to pay the transferor for the assets received by issuing securities to investors in the form of debt and equity instruments, certificates, commercial paper, and other notes of indebtedness. Investors usually have recourse to the assets in the SPE and often benefit from other credit enhancements, such as a cash collateral account or overcollateralization in the form of excess assets in the SPE, or from a liquidity facility, such as a line of credit or asset purchase agreement. Accordingly, the SPE can typically obtain a more favorable credit rating from rating agencies, such as Standard and Poor's and Moody's Investors Service, than the transferor could obtain for its own debt issuances, resulting in less expensive financing costs. The transferor can use the cash proceeds from the sale to extend credit to additional customers or for other business purposes. The SPE may also enter into a derivative contract in order to convert the yield or currency of the underlying assets to match the needs of the SPE's investors or to limit or change the credit risk of the SPE. The Company may be the counterparty to any such derivative. The securitization process enhances the liquidity of the financial markets, may spread credit risk among several market participants, and makes new funds available to extend credit to consumers and commercial entities.
48
Citigroup also acts as intermediary or agent for its corporate clients, assisting them in obtaining sources of liquidity by selling the clients' trade receivables or other financial assets to an SPE. The Company also securitizes clients' debt obligations in transactions involving SPEs that issue collateralized debt obligations. In yet other arrangements, the Company packages and securitizes assets purchased in the financial markets in order to create new security offerings for institutional and private bank clients as well as retail customers. In connection with such arrangements, Citigroup may purchase, and temporarily hold assets designated for subsequent securitization.

In certain off-balance sheet arrangements, including credit card receivable and mortgage loan securitizations, Citigroup is securitizing assets that were previously recorded in its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of these qualifying SPEs do not appear in Citigroup's Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 the total amount of loans securitized and outstanding was $202 billion and $234 billion, respectively. Servicing rights and other retained interests amounted to $4.669 billion and $4.352 billion at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
The following tables summarize certain cash flows received from and paid to securitization trusts:

Credit Card Receivables
Credit card receivables are securitized through trusts, which are established to purchase the receivables. Citigroup sells receivables into the trusts on a non-recourse basis. After securitization of credit card receivables, the Company continues to maintain credit card customer account relationships and provides servicing for receivables transferred to the SPE trusts. As a result, the Company considers both the securitized and unsecuritized credit card receivables to be part of the business it manages. The documents establishing the trusts generally require the Company to maintain an ownership interest in the trusts. The Company also arranges for third parties to provide credit enhancement to the trusts, including cash collateral accounts, subordinated securities, and letters of credit. As specified in certain of the sale agreements, the net revenue with respect to the investors' interest collected by the trusts each month is accumulated up to a predetermined maximum amount and is available over the remaining term of that transaction to make payments of interest to trust investors, fees, and transaction costs in the event that net cash flows from the receivables are not sufficient. If the net cash flows are insufficient, Citigroup's loss is limited to its retained interest, consisting of seller's interest and an interest-only strip that arises from the calculation of gain or loss at the time receivables are sold to the SPE. When the predetermined amount is reached, net revenue with respect to the investors' interest is passed directly to the Citigroup subsidiary that sold the receivables. Credit card securitizations are revolving securitizations; that is, as customers pay their credit card balances, the cash proceeds are used to purchase new receivables and replenish the receivables in the trust. CGMI is one of several underwriters that distribute securities issued by the trusts to investors.
At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, total assets in the credit card trusts were $84 billion and $84 billion, respectively. Of that amount at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, $74 billion and $67 billion, respectively, has been sold to investors
49
via trust-issued securities, and the remaining seller's interest of $10 billion and $17 billion, respectively, is included in Citigroup's Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as Consumer Loans. Citigroup retains credit risk on its seller's interests and reserves for credit losses inherent in the portfolio. Amounts receivable from the trusts were $1.34 billion and $1.11 billion, respectively, and amounts due to the trusts were $983 million and $889 million, respectively, at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. The Company also holds an interest-only strip of $773 million at September 30, 2003 that arose from the calculation of gain or loss at the time assets were sold to the trusts. The Company recorded gains of $64 million and $279 million related to the securitization of credit card receivables as a result of changes in estimates in the timing of revenue recognition on securitizations during the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively, and $239 million during the 2002 third quarter.
Mortgages and Other Assets
The Company provides a wide range of mortgage and other loan products to a diverse customer base. In addition to providing a source of liquidity and less expensive funding, securitizing these assets also reduces the Company's credit exposure to the borrowers. In connection with the securitization of these loans, the Company may retain servicing rights which entitle the Company to a future stream of cash flows based on the outstanding principal balances of the loans and the contractual servicing fee. Failure to service the loans in accordance with contractual servicing obligations may lead to a termination of the servicing contracts and the loss of future servicing fees. In non-recourse servicing, the principal credit risk to the servicer arises from temporary advances of funds. In recourse servicing, the servicer agrees to share credit risk with the owner of the mortgage loans, such as FNMA, FHLMC, GNMA, or with a private investor, insurer or guarantor. The Company's mortgage loan securitizations are primarily non-recourse, thereby effectively transferring the risk of future credit losses to the purchasers of the securities issued by the trust. Home equity loans may be revolving lines of credit under which borrowers have the right to draw on the line of credit up to their maximum amount for a specified number of years. In addition to servicing rights, the Company also retains a residual interest in its auto loan, student loan and other assets securitizations, consisting of seller's interest and interest-only strips that arise from the calculation of gain or loss at the time assets are sold to the SPE. The Company recognized gains related to the securitization of mortgages and other assets of $196 million and $80 million during the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $520 million and $180 million during the first nine months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Securitizations of Client Assets
The Company acts as an intermediary or agent for its corporate clients, assisting them in obtaining sources of liquidity by selling the clients' trade receivables or other financial assets to an SPE.
The Company administers several third-party owned, special purpose, multi-seller finance companies that purchase pools of trade receivables, credit cards, and other financial assets from third-party clients of the Company. As administrator, the Company provides accounting, funding, and operations services to these conduits. The Company has no ownership interest in the conduits. The sellers continue to service the transferred assets. The conduits' asset purchases are funded by issuing commercial paper and medium-term notes. The sellers absorb the first losses of the conduit by providing collateral in the form of excess assets. The Company along with other financial institutions provides liquidity facilities, such as commercial paper backstop lines of credit to the conduits. The Company also provides loss enhancement in the form of letters of credit and other guarantees. Following certain actions taken to restructure certain multi-seller finance companies, the Company has determined that they should not be consolidated under FIN 46. All fees are charged on a market basis. At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, total assets in the conduits were $46 billion and $49 billion, respectively, and liabilities were $46 billion and $49 billion, respectively. In addition, the Company participates in providing liquidity backstop lines of credit to conduits administered by other financial institutions.
The FASB continues to provide additional guidance on implementing FIN 46 through FASB Staff Positions. In addition, a draft interpretation of FIN 46 has been issued for comment. As this guidance is finalized, the Company will continue to review the status of VIEs it is involved with, including the conduits. As a result of changes in the guidance, additional VIEs may ultimately be required to be consolidated. This paragraph contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
The Company also securitizes clients' debt obligations in transactions involving SPEs that issue collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). A majority of the transactions are on behalf of clients where the Company first purchases the assets at the request of the clients and warehouses them until the securitization transaction is executed. Other CDOs are structured where the underlying debt obligations are purchased directly in the open market or from issuers. Some CDOs have static unmanaged portfolios of assets, while others have more actively managed portfolios of financial assets. The Company receives market-rate fees for structuring and distributing the CDO securities to investors. At September 30, 2003, assets in the CDOs amounted to $21 billion.
In addition to securitizations of mortgage loans originated by the Company, the Company also securitizes purchased mortgages and other loans, creating collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), other mortgage-backed securities (MBSs), and other asset-backed securities, and distributes them to investors. Since January 1, 2000, the Company has organized mortgage and other asset-backed securitizations with assets of $178 billion at September 30, 2003. The Company may also provide liquidity facilities, provide servicing for the mortgage loans transferred to the SPE, and be a derivative counterparty to the SPE.
50
Creation of Other Investment and Financing Products
The Company packages and securitizes assets purchased in the financial markets in order to create new security offerings, including hedge funds, mutual funds, unit investment trusts, and other investment funds, for institutional andPrivate Bank clients as well as retail customers, that match the clients' investment needs and preferences. The funds may be credit-enhanced by excess assets in the investment pool or by third-party insurers assuming the risks of the underlying assets, thus reducing the credit risk assumed by the investors and diversifying investors' risk to a pool of assets as compared with investments in individual assets. For a limited number of mutual funds, the Company provides a guarantee that investors will recover their principal investments. In certain instances for newly-established funds, the Company may provide seed money until such funds are ready to distribute interests widely to investors. Where the Company has provided a majority of the initial investment, the fund is consolidated. The Company typically manages the funds for market-rate fees. In addition, the Company may be one of several liquidity providers to the funds and may place the securities with investors.

CAPITAL
Citigroup Inc.
Citigroup is subject to risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy based primarily on the perceived credit risk associated with balance sheet assets, as well as certain off-balance sheet exposures such as unused loan commitments, letters of credit, and derivative and foreign exchange contracts. The risk-based capital guidelines are supplemented by a leverage ratio requirement. To be "well capitalized" under Federal bank regulatory agency definitions, a bank holding company must have a Tier 1 ratio of at least 6%, a combined Tier 1 and Tier 2 ratio of at least 10%, and a leverage ratio of at least 3%, and not be subject to a directive, order, or written agreement to meet and maintain specific capital levels.

- (1)
- The increase in minority interest during the third quarter reflects the consolidation of a VIE due to early implementation of FIN 46.
- (2)
- Tier 1 capital excludes unrealized gains and losses on debt securities available-for-sale in accordance with regulatory risk-based capital guidelines. The Federal bank regulatory agencies permit institutions to include in Tier 2 capital up to 45% of pretax net unrealized holding gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair values. Institutions are required to deduct from Tier 1 capital net unrealized holding losses on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair values, net of tax.
- (3)
- Represents unconsolidated banking and finance subsidiaries.
- (4)
- Includable up to 1.25% of risk-adjusted assets. Any excess allowance is deducted from risk-adjusted assets.
- (5)
- Includes qualifying senior and subordinated debt in an amount not exceeding 50% of Tier 1 capital, and subordinated capital notes subject to certain limitations.
- (6)
- Includes risk-weighted credit equivalent amounts, net of applicable bilateral netting agreements, of $33.8 billion for interest rate, commodity and equity derivative contracts and foreign exchange contracts, as of September 30, 2003, compared to $33.2 billion as of June 30, 2003 and $31.5 billion as of December 31, 2002. Market risk-equivalent assets included in risk-adjusted assets amounted to $32.7 billion at September 30, 2003, and $33.1 billion at June 30, 2003 and $30.6 billion at December 31, 2002. Risk-adjusted assets also includes the effect of other off-balance sheet exposures such as unused loan commitments and letters of credit and reflects deductions for intangible assets and any excess allowance for credit losses.
Common stockholders' equity increased $8.8 billion during the first nine months of 2003 to $94.1 billion at September 30, 2003, representing 7.79% of assets, compared to $85.3 billion and 7.78% at year-end 2002. The increase in common stockholders' equity during the first nine months of 2003 principally reflected net income of $13.1 billion and $2.2 billion related to the issuance of shares pursuant to employee benefit plans and other activity, partially offset by dividends declared on common stock of $3.9 billion, treasury stock acquired of $1.5 billion, $0.6 billion related to the net issuance of restricted and deferred stock, $0.3 billion related to the after-tax change in equity from non-owner sources, and $0.2 billion related to the purchase of shares from the Banamex Employee Pension Fund. The increase in the common stockholders' equity ratio during the first nine months of 2003 reflected the above items.
On October 3, 2003, Citicorp redeemed for cash all of the $225 million Trust Preferred securities of Citicorp Capital III, at the redemption price of $25 per preferred security plus accrued distributions to but excluding the date of redemption. Because notice for redemption of these securities occurred prior to quarter-end, they did not qualify as Tier 1 Capital at September 30, 2003.
On October 16, 2003, Citigroup announced that on November 15, 2003, it will redeem for cash all of the $500 million Trust Preferred securities of Citigroup Capital V, at the redemption price of $25 per preferred security plus any accrued distribution to but excluding the date of redemption.
The total mandatorily redeemable securities of subsidiary trusts (trust securities) which qualify as Tier 1 capital at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were $6.863 billion and $6.152 billion, respectively. The amount outstanding at September 30, 2003 includes $5.809 billion of parent-obligated securities and $1.079 billion of subsidiary-obligated securities, and at December 31, 2002 includes $4.657 billion of parent-obligated securities and $1.495 billion of subsidiary- obligated securities. The continued consolidation of the Issuer Trusts and the appropriate balance sheet classification of trust preferred securities is currently under review pursuant to FIN 46. Although the FRB has issued interim guidance that continues to recognize trust preferred securities as a component of Tier 1 capital, it is possible that a change may result in these securities' qualifying for Tier 2 capital rather than Tier 1 capital. If Tier 2 capital treatment had been required at September 30, 2003, Citigroup would remain "well capitalized" under the Federal bank regulatory agencies definitions.
52
Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions in the United States are subject to the risk-based capital guidelines issued by their respective primary Federal bank regulatory agencies, which are generally similar to the FRB's guidelines. At September 30, 2003, all of Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions were "well capitalized" under the Federal bank regulatory agencies' definitions.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, consisting of central banks and bank supervisors from 13 countries, is developing a new set of risk based capital standards, on which it has received significant input from Citigroup and other major banking organizations. The Basel Committee intends to finalize the capital standards by mid-2004 and implement a new framework by year-end 2006. The U.S. banking regulators issued an advance notice of proposed rulemaking in August 2003 to address issues in advance of issuing their proposed rules incorporating the new Basel standards. The final version of these rules will apply to Citigroup and other large U.S. banks and bank holding companies. Citigroup is assessing the impact of the proposed new capital standards, participating in efforts to refine the standards and monitoring the progress of the Basel initiative.
In January 2003, the FASB issued accounting guidance in FIN 46 which requires the consolidation of certain types of special purpose vehicles that previously were recorded as off-balance sheet exposures. Although the FASB deferred the effective date of FIN 46 until periods ending after December 15, 2003, Citigroup has elected to implement the provisions of FIN 46 as of July 1, 2003, with the exception of the deferral related to certain investment company subsidiaries. The impact of this early implementation was not material to the capital ratios of Citigroup. On September 12, 2003, the Federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule and a notice of proposed rulemaking concerning how this new requirement will be incorporated into the risk-based capital framework. The interim final rule is effective only for reporting periods ending September 30 and December 31, 2003 and March 2004. A final rule is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2004. The impact of adopting the interim rule did not have a material impact on the capital ratios of Citigroup.
Additionally, from time to time, the FRB and the FFIEC propose amendments to, and issue interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions. Such proposals or interpretations could, if implemented in the future, affect reported capital ratios and net risk-adjusted assets. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 35.
Citicorp
The in-country forum for liquidity issues is the ALCO, which includes senior executives within each country. The ALCO reviews the current and prospective funding requirements for all businesses and legal entities within the country, as well as the capital position and balance sheet. All businesses within the country are represented on the committee with the focal point being the Country Treasurer. The Citigroup Country Officer and the Country Treasurer ensure that all funding obligations in each country are met when due. The Citigroup Corporate Treasurer, in concert with the Citigroup Country Officer and the Regional Market Risk Manager, appoints the Country Treasurer.
Each Country Treasurer must prepare a funding and liquidity plan at least annually, reviewed by the country ALCO and approved by the Regional Market Risk Manager. It is also reviewed by the Citigroup Corporate Treasurer and approved by the independent Senior Treasury Risk Officer. The liquidity profile is monitored on a daily basis by the local Treasurer and independent risk management. Limits are established on the extent to which businesses in a country can take liquidity risk. The size of the limit depends on the size of the balance sheet, depth of the market, experience level of local management, the stability of the liabilities, and liquidity of the assets. Finally, the limits are subject to the evaluation of the entities' stress test results. Generally, limits are established such that in stress scenarios, entities need to be self-funded or providers of liquidity to Citicorp.
Regional Market Risk Managers have responsibility for monitoring liquidity risk across a number of countries within a defined geography. They are also available for consultation and special approvals, especially in unusual or volatile market conditions.
Citicorp's assets and liabilities are diversified across many currencies, geographic areas, and businesses. Particular attention is paid to those businesses which for tax, sovereign risk, or regulatory reasons cannot be freely and readily funded in the international markets.
A diversity of funding sources, currencies, and maturities is used to gain a broad access to the investor base. Citicorp's deposits, which represent 59% and 60% of total funding at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, are broadly diversified by both geography and customer segments.
Stockholder's equity, which grew $4.9 billion during the first nine months of 2003 to $78.4 billion at September 30, 2003, continues to be an important component of the overall funding structure. In addition, long-term debt is issued by Citicorp and its subsidiaries. Total Citicorp long-term debt outstanding at the end of the third quarter was $92.9 billion, compared with $78.4 billion at year-end 2002.
Asset securitization programs remain an important source of liquidity. Loans securitized and sold during the first nine months of 2003 included $12.0 billion of U.S. credit cards and $47.9 billion of U.S. consumer mortgages. As credit card securitization transactions amortize, newly originated receivables are recorded on Citicorp's balance sheet and become available for asset
53
securitization. In the 2003 third quarter, the scheduled amortization of certain credit card securitization transactions made available $4.4 billion of new receivables. In addition, at least $5.9 billion of credit card securitization transactions are scheduled to amortize during 2003.
Citicorp is a legal entity separate and distinct from Citibank, N.A. and its other subsidiaries and affiliates. There are various legal limitations on the extent to which Citicorp's banking subsidiaries may extend credit, pay dividends or otherwise supply funds to Citicorp. The approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required if total dividends declared by a national bank in any calendar year exceed net profits (as defined) for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. In addition, dividends for such a bank may not be paid in excess of the bank's undivided profits. State-chartered bank subsidiaries are subject to dividend limitations imposed by applicable state law.
As of September 30, 2003, Citicorp's national and state-chartered bank subsidiaries could have declared dividends to their respective parent companies, without regulatory approval, of approximately $7.2 billion. In determining whether and to what extent to pay dividends, each bank subsidiary must also consider the effect of dividend payments on applicable risk-based capital and leverage ratio requirements as well as policy statements of the Federal regulatory agencies that indicate that banking organizations should generally pay dividends out of current operating earnings. Consistent with these considerations, Citicorp estimates that, as of September 30, 2003, its bank subsidiaries could have distributed dividends to Citicorp, directly or through their parent holding company, of approximately $5.7 billion of the available $7.2 billion.
Citicorp also receives dividends from its nonbank subsidiaries. These nonbank subsidiaries are generally not subject to regulatory restrictions on their payment of dividends except that the approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) may be required if total dividends declared by a savings association in any calendar year exceed amounts specified by that agency's regulations. Citicorp is subject to risk-based capital and leverage guidelines issued by the FRB.

Citicorp maintained its well-capitalized capital position during the 2003 third quarter. Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) amounted to $73.4 billion at September 30, 2003, representing 13.01% of risk-adjusted assets. This compares with $69.9 billion and 12.61% at June 30, 2003 and $68.7 billion and 12.31% at December 31, 2002. Tier 1 capital of $50.1 billion at September 30, 2003 represented 8.88% of risk-adjusted assets, compared with $46.6 billion and 8.40% at June 30, 2003 and $45.3 billion and 8.11% at December 31, 2002. The Tier 1 capital ratio at September 30, 2003 was above Citicorp's target range of 8.00% to 8.30%. Similar to Citigroup, Citicorp capital ratios include the benefit of the inclusion of trust preferred securities.
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (CGMHI)
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.'s (formerly Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc.) total assets were $343 billion at September 30, 2003, an increase from $292 billion at year-end 2002. Due to the nature of CGMHI's trading activities, it is not uncommon for CGMHI's asset levels to fluctuate from period to period.
CGMHI's condensed consolidated statement of financial condition is highly liquid, with the vast majority of its assets consisting of marketable securities and collateralized short-term financing agreements arising from securities transactions. The highly liquid nature of these assets provides CGMHI with flexibility in financing and managing its business. CGMHI monitors and evaluates the adequacy of its capital and borrowing base on a daily basis in order to allow for flexibility in its funding, to maintain liquidity, and to ensure that its capital base supports the regulatory capital requirements of its subsidiaries.
CGMHI funds its operations through the use of collateralized and uncollateralized short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings, and its equity. Collateralized short-term financing, including repurchase agreements and secured loans, is CGMHI's principal funding source. Such borrowings are reported net by counterparty, when applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation 41, "Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements" ("FIN 41"). Excluding the impact of FIN 41, short-term collateralized borrowings totaled $213.4 billion at September 30, 2003. Uncollateralized short-term borrowings provide CGMHI with a source of short-term liquidity and are also utilized as an alternative to secured financing when they represent a less expensive source. Sources of short-term uncollateralized borrowings include commercial paper, unsecured bank borrowings, promissory notes and corporate loans. Short-term uncollateralized borrowings totaled $22.3 billion at September 30, 2003. On March 3, 2003, CGMHI redeemed for cash all of the mandatorily redeemable
54
securities of SSBH Capital I, a wholly-owned subsidiary trust, at the redemption price of $25 per preferred security plus any accrued interest and unpaid distributions thereon.
CGMHI has a $4.85 billion 364-day committed uncollateralized revolving line of credit with unaffiliated banks. Commitments under this facility terminate in May 2004. Any borrowings under this facility would mature in May 2006. CGMHI also has a $125 million committed uncollateralized 364-day facility with an unaffiliated bank that extends through May 2004, with any borrowings under this facility maturing in May 2005, and a $100 million 364-day collateralized facility that extends through December 2003. CGMHI may borrow under these revolving credit facilities at various interest rate options (LIBOR or base rate), and compensates the banks for these facilities through facility fees. At September 30, 2003, there were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities. CGMHI also has committed long-term financing facilities of $1.7 billion with unaffiliated banks which were fully drawn at September 30, 2003. A bank can terminate its facility by giving CGMHI prior notice (generally one year). CGMHI compensates the banks for the facilities through facility fees. Under all of these facilities, CGMHI is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated adjusted net worth (as defined in the agreement). At September 30, 2003, this requirement was exceeded by approximately $6.3 billion. CGMHI also has substantial borrowing arrangements consisting of facilities that CGMHI has been advised are available, but where no contractual lending obligation exists. These arrangements are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure flexibility in meeting CGMHI's short-term requirements.
Unsecured term debt is a significant component of CGMHI's long-term capital. Long-term debt totaled $30.5 billion at September 30, 2003 and $28.9 billion at December 31, 2002. CGMHI utilizes interest rate swaps to convert the majority of its fixed-rate long-term debt used to fund inventory-related working capital requirements into variable rate obligations. Long-term debt issuances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar that are not used to finance assets in the same currency are effectively converted to U.S. dollar obligations through the use of cross-currency swaps and forward currency contracts.
CGMHI's borrowing relationships are with a broad range of banks, financial institutions and other firms, including affiliates, from which it draws funds. The volume of CGMHI's borrowings generally fluctuates in response to changes in the level of CGMHI's financial instruments, commodities and contractual commitments, customer balances, the amount of securities purchased under agreements to resell, and securities borrowed transactions. As CGMHI's activities increase, borrowings generally increase to fund the additional activities. Availability of financing to CGMHI can vary depending upon market conditions, credit ratings and the overall availability of credit to the securities industry. CGMHI seeks to expand and diversify its funding mix as well as its creditor sources. Concentration levels for these sources, particularly for short-term lenders, are closely monitored both in terms of single investor limits and daily maturities.
CGMHI monitors liquidity by tracking asset levels, collateral and funding availability to maintain flexibility to meet its financial commitments. CGMHI's liquidity management process includes a contingency funding plan designed to ensure adequate liquidity even if access to unsecured funding sources is severely restricted or unavailable. This plan is reviewed periodically to keep the funding options current and in line with market conditions. The management of this plan includes an analysis used to determine CGMHI's ability to withstand varying levels of stress, including ratings downgrades, which could impact its liquidation horizons and required margins. In addition, CGMHI monitors its leverage and capital ratios on a daily basis.
The Travelers Insurance Company (TIC)
At September 30, 2003, TIC had $42.7 billion of life and annuity product deposit funds and reserves. Of that total, $24.0 billion is not subject to discretionary withdrawal based on contract terms. The remaining $18.7 billion is for life and annuity products that are subject to discretionary withdrawal by the contractholder. Included in the amount that is subject to discretionary withdrawal is $6.9 billion of liabilities that is surrenderable with market value adjustments. Also included is an additional $6.0 billion of the life insurance and individual annuity liabilities which is subject to discretionary withdrawals and an average surrender charge of 4.92%. In the payout phase, these funds are credited at significantly reduced interest rates. The remaining $5.8 billion of liabilities is surrenderable without charge. Approximately 9.7% of this relates to individual life products. These risks would have to be underwritten again if transferred to another carrier, which is considered a significant deterrent against withdrawal by long-term policyholders. Insurance liabilities that are surrendered or withdrawn are reduced by outstanding policy loans, and related accrued interest prior to payout.
TIC is subject to various regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum amount of dividends available to its parent without prior approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department. A maximum of $966 million of statutory surplus is available by the end of the year 2003 for such dividends without the prior approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department, of which $280 million was paid during the first nine months of 2003.
Insurance Industry—Risk-Based Capital
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) adopted risk-based capital (RBC) requirements for life insurance companies and for property and casualty insurance companies. The RBC requirements are to be used as minimum capital requirements by the NAIC and states to identify companies that merit further regulatory action. At September 30, 2003 and
55
December 31, 2002, all of Citigroup's life companies had adjusted capital in excess of amounts requiring Company or any regulatory action.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

CITIGROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2003 and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 include the accounts of Citigroup Inc. (Citigroup) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Citigroup's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, but is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.
2. Accounting Changes
Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," (SFAS 123), prospectively to all awards granted, modified, or settled after January 1, 2003. The prospective method is one of the adoption methods provided for under SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure," issued in December 2002. SFAS 123 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and recognized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). This compensation cost is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Similar to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," the alternative method of accounting, an offsetting increase to stockholders' equity under SFAS 123 is recorded equal to the amount of compensation expense charged. Earnings per share dilution is recognized as well.
Had the Company applied SFAS 123 in accounting for the Company's stock option plans for all options granted, net income and net income per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated below:

| 0.90 0.89 | | $
| 0.76 0.74 | | $
| 2.51 2.47 | | $
| 2.47 2.40 |
The Company has made changes to various stock-based compensation plan provisions for awards granted in 2003. For example, the vesting period and the term of stock options granted after 2002 have been shortened to three and six years, respectively. In addition, the sale of underlying shares acquired through the exercise of options granted in 2003 is restricted for a two-year period. The Company continues its existing stock ownership commitment for senior executives, which requires executives to retain at least 75% of the shares they acquire from the Company over the term of their employment. Original option grants in 2003 and thereafter will not have a reload feature; however, previously granted options will retain that feature. Other changes may also be made that may impact the expense recognized under SFAS 123.
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On January 1, 2003, Citigroup adopted SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, other than in a business combination, be recognized when the liability is incurred. Previous generally accepted accounting principles provided for the recognition of such costs at the date of management's commitment to an exit plan. In addition, SFAS 146 requires that the liability be measured at fair
61
value and be adjusted for changes in estimated cash flows. The provisions of the new standard are effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The impact of adopting of SFAS 146 was not material.
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46). The provisions of FIN 46 applied immediately to variable interest entities (VIEs) created after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. In October 2003, the FASB announced that the effective date of FIN 46 was deferred from July 1, 2003 to periods ending after December 15, 2003 for VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Citigroup elected to adopt the remaining provisions of FIN 46 in the third quarter of 2003, with the exception of the deferral related to certain investment company subsidiaries. FIN 46 changes the method of determining whether certain entities, including securitization entities, should be included in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. An entity is subject to FIN 46 and is called a VIE if it has (1) equity that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (2) equity investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's operations, or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the expected returns of the entity. All other entities are evaluated for consolidation under SFAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries." A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party involved with the VIE that absorbs a majority of the expected losses, receives a majority of the expected residual returns, or both.
For any VIEs that must be consolidated under FIN 46 that were created before February 1, 2003, the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the VIE are initially measured at their carrying amounts with any difference between the net amount added to the balance sheet and any previously recognized interest being recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. If determining the carrying amounts is not practicable, fair value at the date FIN 46 first applies may be used to measure the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the VIE. The implementation of FIN 46 on July 1, 2003 resulted in the consolidation of VIEs increasing both total assets and total liabilities by approximately $2.1 billion.
The FASB continues to provide additional guidance on implementing FIN 46 through FASB staff positions. In addition, a draft interpretation of FIN 46 has been issued for comment. As this guidance is finalized, the Company will continue to review the status of VIEs it is involved with. As a result of changes in the guidance, additional VIEs may ultimately be required to be consolidated.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the recognition and measurement provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" (FIN 45), which requires that, for guarantees within the scope of FIN 45 issued or amended after December 31, 2002, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee be recognized. The impact of adopting FIN 45 was not material.
Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Effective July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" (SFAS No. 141) and certain provisions of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (SFAS No. 142), as required for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets resulting from business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001. The new rules require that all business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method. The nonamortization provisions of the new rules affecting goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are effective for all purchase business combinations completed after June 30, 2001.
On January 1, 2002, Citigroup adopted the remaining provisions of SFAS No. 142, when the rules became effective for calendar year companies. Under the new rules, effective January 1, 2002, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The adoption resulted in a cumulative adjustment of $47 million (after-tax) reported as a charge to earnings related to the impairment of certain intangible assets.
62
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
On January 1, 2002, Citigroup adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144), when the rule became effective for calendar year companies. SFAS 144 establishes additional criteria as compared to existing generally accepted accounting principles to determine when a long-lived asset is held-for-sale. It also broadens the definition of "discontinued operations," but does not allow for the accrual of future operating losses, as was previously permitted. The impact of adopting SFAS 144 was not material.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
On July 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 149). SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS 133. In particular, this Statement clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative and when a derivative contains a financing component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash flows. This Statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Liabilities and Equity
On July 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" (SFAS 150). SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and classifies them in its statement of financial position. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) when that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective July 1, 2003, and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
3. Business Developments and Combinations
Acquisition of Sears' Credit Card Business
On November 3, 2003, Citigroup acquired the Sears' Credit Card and Financial Products business (the 8th largest portfolio in the U.S.). The purchase price of $31.8 billion included Sears' private label and bank card credit card receivables of $28.6 billion (prior to any FFIEC and other purchase adjustments) plus a 10% premium of approximately $2.9 billion and $0.3 billion for other assets, business facilities and employees (approximately 8,000 employees, 6,000 full-time). In addition, the companies signed a multi-year marketing and servicing agreement across a range of each company's business, products and services.
Acquisition of Golden State Bancorp
On November 6, 2002, Citigroup completed its acquisition of 100% of Golden State Bancorp (GSB) in a transaction in which Citigroup paid approximately $2.3 billion in cash and issued 79.5 million Citigroup common shares. The total transaction value of approximately $5.8 billion was based on the average prices of Citigroup shares, as adjusted for the effect of the TPC distribution, for the two trading days before and after May 21, 2002, the date the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced. GSB was the parent company of California Federal Bank, the second-largest thrift in the U.S. and, through its First Nationwide Mortgage business, the eighth-largest mortgage servicer.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
During the 2003 third quarter, the Company recorded goodwill of approximately $150 million in connection with the acquisition of a credit card business in Europe and reduced goodwill by $25 million in connection with the sale of a business in the Consumer segment. The Company also recorded goodwill of $41 million during the 2002 second quarter and $74 million during the 2002 first quarter in connection with the consumer finance acquisitions of Marafuku Co., Ltd. and Taihei Co., Ltd., respectively, in Japan. Additionally, in the 2002 first quarter, Banamex completed the purchase of the remaining 48% interest in Seguros Banamex, a life insurance business, and Afore Banamex, a pension fund management business, from AEGON for $1.24 billion which resulted in additional goodwill of $1.14 billion in the Global Investment Management segment.
During the first nine months of 2003, the Company recorded approximately $763 million of mortgage servicing rights, $331 million of purchased credit card relationships and $300 million of other intangible assets. The mortgage servicing rights acquired will be amortized on an accelerated basis over the contractual life of the underlying serviced loans, adjusted for actual prepayment activity. The majority of these servicing rights are expected to be amortized within five years. The purchased credit card relationships and the other intangible assets acquired are to be amortized over eight years. Intangible assets amortization expense was $274 million and
63
$210 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $862 million and $620 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
4. Discontinued Operations
Travelers Property Casualty Corp. (TPC) (an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup on December 31, 2001) sold 231 million shares of its class A common stock representing approximately 23.1% of its outstanding equity securities in an initial public offering (IPO) on March 27, 2002. In 2002, Citigroup recognized an after-tax gain of $1.158 billion ($1.061 billion after-tax recognized in the 2002 first quarter and $97 million after-tax recognized in the 2002 third quarter) as a result of the IPO.
On August 20, 2002, Citigroup completed the distribution to its stockholders of a majority portion of its remaining ownership interest in TPC (the distribution). This non-cash distribution was tax-free to Citigroup, its stockholders and TPC. The distribution was treated as a dividend to stockholders for accounting purposes. Following the distribution, Citigroup was a holder of approximately 9.9% of TPC's outstanding equity securities which are carried at fair value in the Proprietary Investment Activities segment and classified as available-for-sale within Investments on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Citigroup has agreed to divest these securities within five years of the distribution.
Following the August 20, 2002 distribution, the results of TPC were reported in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flows separately as discontinued operations. TPC represented the primary vehicle by which Citigroup engaged in the property and casualty insurance business.

- (3)
- Utilization amounts include translation effects on the restructuring reserve.
There were no restructuring charges during the first nine months of 2003. During 2002, Citigroup recorded restructuring charges of $65 million. Of the $65 million, $42 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2002 related to the downsizing of Global Consumer and GCIB operations in Argentina, and $23 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002 related to the acquisition of GSB and the integration of its operations
67
within the Global Consumer business. In addition, a restructuring reserve of $186 million was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2002 as a liability in the purchase price allocation of GSB related to the integration of operations and operating platforms. These restructuring initiatives are expected to be implemented this year. The 2002 reserves included $150 million related to employee severance and $101 million related to exiting leasehold and other contractual obligations.
The 2002 reserves included $108 million of employee severance related to the GSB acquisition reflecting the cost of eliminating approximately 2,700 positions in Citigroup's Global Consumer business in the United States. The 2002 restructuring reserve utilization of $213 million was related to severance and other costs (of which $115 million was employee severance and $98 million is legally obligated) which were paid in cash, including $11 million and $145 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively. Through September 30, 2003, approximately 2,250 gross staff positions have been eliminated in connection with the GSB acquisition, including approximately 830 and 2,150 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively.
During 2001, Citigroup recorded restructuring charges of $448 million, including $2 million related to discontinued operations. Of the $448 million, $319 million related to the downsizing of certain functions in the GCIB and Global Consumer businesses in order to align their cost structures with current market conditions and $129 million related to the acquisition of Banamex and the integration of its operations. In addition, a restructuring reserve of $112 million was recorded in connection with the acquisition of Banamex and recognized as a liability in the purchase price allocation of Banamex. The total Banamex reserves of $241 million include costs related to downsizing, the reconfiguration of branch operations in Mexico, and the integration of operations and operating platforms. The reserves included $423 million related to employee severance, $72 million related to exiting leasehold and other contractual obligations, and $65 million of asset impairment charges.
The $423 million related to employee severance reflects the cost of eliminating approximately 12,500 positions, including 4,200 in Citigroup's Global Consumer business and 3,600 in Banamex related to the acquisition, and 1,300 in the Global Consumer business and 3,400 in the GCIB business related to other restructuring initiatives. Approximately 3,200 of these positions were in the United States.
Through September 30, 2003, the 2001 restructuring reserve utilization included $65 million of asset impairment charges as well as $425 million of severance and other costs (of which $352 million of employee severance and $37 million of leasehold and other exit costs were paid in cash and $36 million is legally obligated), together with translation effects. Utilization of the 2001 restructuring reserve in the 2003 third quarter and nine months were $10 million and $22 million, respectively. Through September 30, 2003, approximately 12,990 gross staff positions have been eliminated under these programs, including approximately 90 and 240 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively. The remaining reserve of $12 million will be utilized in the 2003 fourth quarter.
The implementation of these restructuring initiatives also caused certain related premises and equipment assets to become redundant. The remaining depreciable lives of these assets were shortened, and accelerated depreciation charges (in addition to normal scheduled depreciation on those assets) were recognized. There were no accelerated depreciation charges recognized during 2003. There were no accelerated depreciation charges recognized in the third quarter of 2002, however $9 million was recognized in the first nine months of 2002.
Changes in estimates are attributable to facts and circumstances arising subsequent to an original restructuring charge. Changes in estimates attributable to lower than anticipated costs of implementing certain projects and a reduction in the scope of certain initiatives during the third quarter of 2003 resulted in a reduction of the reserve for 2001 restructuring initiatives of $11 million. Changes in estimates during the second quarter of 2003 resulted in a reduction of the reserve for prior restructuring initiatives of $1 million. Changes in estimates during the first quarter of 2003 resulted in a reduction of the reserve for 2001 restructuring initiatives of $3 million and a reduction of reserves for prior restructuring initiatives of $10 million. Changes in estimates during the third quarter of 2002 resulted in a reduction of the reserve for 2001 restructuring initiatives of $21 million and a reduction of reserves for prior restructuring initiatives of $20 million. Changes in estimates during the second quarter of 2002 resulted in a reduction of the reserve for 2001 restructuring initiatives of $6 million and a reduction of reserves for prior restructuring initiatives of $37 million.
Additional information about restructuring-related items, including the business segments affected, can be found in Citigroup's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

11. Derivatives and Other Activities
A derivative must be highly effective in accomplishing the hedge objective of offsetting either changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item for the risk being hedged. Any ineffectiveness present in the hedge relationship is recognized in current earnings. The assessment of effectiveness excludes the changes in the value of the hedged item which are unrelated to the risks being hedged. Similarly, the assessment of effectiveness may exclude changes in the fair value of a derivative related to time value which, if excluded, are recognized in current earnings.
The following table summarizes certain information related to the Company's hedging activities for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002:

13. Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities
Securitization Activities
Citigroup and its subsidiaries securitize primarily credit card receivables and mortgages. Other types of assets securitized include corporate debt securities, auto loans and student loans.
After securitizations of credit card receivables, the Company continues to maintain credit card customer account relationships and provides servicing for receivables transferred to the trusts. The Company also arranges for third parties to provide credit enhancement to the trusts, including cash collateral accounts, subordinated securities and letters of credit. As specified in certain of the sale agreements, the net revenue collected each month is accumulated up to a predetermined maximum amount, and is available over the remaining term of that transaction to make payments of yield, fees, and transaction costs in the event that net cash flows from the receivables are not sufficient. When the predetermined amount is reached net revenue is passed directly to the Citigroup subsidiary that sold the receivables.
The Company provides a wide range of mortgage products to a diverse customer base. In connection with these loans, the Company may retain servicing rights which entitle the Company to a future stream of cash flows based on the outstanding principal balances of the loans and the contractual servicing fee. Failure to service the loans in accordance with contractual requirements may lead to a termination of the servicing rights and the loss of future servicing fees. In non-recourse servicing, the principal credit risk to the servicer is the cost of temporary advances of funds. In recourse servicing, the servicer agrees to share credit losses with the owner of the mortgage loans such as FNMA or FHLMC or with a private investor, insurer or guarantor.
The Company also originates and sells first mortgage loans in the ordinary course of its mortgage banking activities. The Company sells certain of these loans to the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) with the servicing rights retained. GNMA has the primary recourse obligation on the individual loans; however, GNMA's recourse obligation is capped at a fixed amount per loan. Any losses above that fixed amount are borne by Citigroup as the seller/servicer.

The Company recognized gains on securitizations of mortgages of $196 million and $80 million for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $497 million and $140 million during the first nine months of 2003 and 2002, respectively. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2003 the Company recorded gains of $64 million and $279 million, respectively, and $239 million during the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 related to the securitization of credit card receivables as a result of changes in estimates in the timing of revenue recognition on securitizations. No gains were recognized on the securitization of other assets during the third quarters of 2003 and 2002. However, gains of $23 million and $40 million were recognized on the securitization of other assets during the first nine months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Key assumptions used for credit cards, mortgages and other assets during the three months ended September 30, 2003 in measuring the fair value of retained interests at the date of sale or securitization follow:
| | Credit Cards
| | Mortgages and Other(1)

Constant prepayment rate | | 17.5% | | 7.8% to 51.0% |
Anticipated net credit losses | | 5.6% | | 0.01% |
| |
| |
|

- Other includes corporate debt securities and other assets.
As required by SFAS No. 140, the effect of two negative changes in each of the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of retained interests must be disclosed. The negative effect of each change in each assumption must be calculated independently, holding all other assumptions constant. Because the key assumptions may not in fact be independent, the net effect of simultaneous adverse changes in the key assumptions may be less than the sum of the individual effects shown below.
72
At September 30, 2003, the key assumptions used to value retained interests and the sensitivity of the fair value to two adverse changes in each of the key assumptions were as follows:

Managed Loans
After securitization of credit card receivables, the Company continues to maintain credit card customer account relationships and provides servicing for receivables transferred to the trusts. As a result, the Company considers both the securitized and unsecuritized credit card receivables to be part of the business it manages. The following tables present a reconciliation between the managed basis and on-balance sheet credit card portfolios and the related delinquencies (loans which are 90 days or more past due) and credit losses, net of recoveries.

Servicing Rights
The fair value of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights was $1.625 billion and $1.632 billion at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. The following table summarizes the changes in net capitalized mortgage servicing rights (MSR):

- The gain (loss) on change in MSR value represents the change in the fair value of the MSRs attributable to risks that are hedged using fair value hedges in accordance with FAS 133. The offsetting change in the fair value of the related hedging instruments is not included in this table.
- (2)
- The provision for impairment of MSRs represents the excess of their net carrying value, which includes the gain (loss) on change in MSR value, over their fair value. The provision for impairment increases the valuation allowance on MSRs, which is a component of the net MSR carrying value. A recovery of the MSR impairment is recorded when the fair value of the MSRs exceeds their carrying value, but it is limited to the amount of the existing valuation allowance. The valuation allowance on MSRs was $801 million, $910 million, $1.475 billion and $1.313 billion at September 30, 2003, June 30, 2003, March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, and $834 million, $316 million, $193 million and $153 million at September 30, 2002, June 30, 2002, March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. During the 2003 second quarter, the Company determined that a portion of the capitalized MSR was not recoverable and reduced both the previously recognized valuation allowance and the asset by $830 million with no impact to earnings in the quarter.
- (3)
- The Company utilizes various financial instruments including swaps, option contracts, futures, principal only securities and forward rate agreements to manage and reduce its exposure to changes in the value of MSRs. The provision for impairment does not include the impact of these instruments which serve to protect the overall economic value of the MSRs.
Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46). FIN 46 changes the method of determining whether certain entities, including securitization entities, should be included in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. An entity is subject to FIN 46 and is called a VIE if it has (1) equity that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (2) equity investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's operations, or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the expected returns of the entity. All other entities are evaluated for consolidation under SFAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries." A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party involved with the VIE that has a majority of the expected losses or a majority of the expected residual returns or both.
The provisions of FIN 46 are applied immediately to variable interest entities (VIEs) created after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. In October 2003, the FASB announced that the effective date of FIN 46 was deferred from July 1, 2003 to periods ending after December 15, 2003 for VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. With the exception of the deferral related to certain investment company subsidiaries, Citigroup elected to implement the remaining provisions of FIN 46 in the 2003 third quarter, resulting in the consolidation of VIEs increasing both total assets and total liabilities by approximately $2.1 billion.
The implementation of FIN 46 encompassed a review of thousands of entities to determine the impact of adoption and considerable judgment was used in evaluating whether or not a VIE should be consolidated. The FASB continues to provide additional guidance on implementing FIN 46 through FASB Staff Positions. In addition, a draft interpretation of FIN 46 has been issued for comment. As this guidance is finalized, the Company will continue to review the status of VIEs it is involved with. As a result of changes in the guidance, additional VIEs may ultimately be required to be consolidated.
The following table represents the carrying amounts and classification of consolidated assets that are collateral for VIE obligations, including VIEs that were consolidated prior to the implementation of FIN 46 under existing guidance and VIEs that the Company became involved with after July 1, 2003:

Total assets of consolidated VIEs | | $ | 30,841 |
| |
|
74
The consolidated VIEs included in the table above represent hundreds of separate entities with which the Company is involved and includes $2.1 billion related to VIEs newly consolidated as a result of adopting FIN 46. Approximately $25 billion of the total assets of consolidated VIEs represents structured transactions where the Company packages and securitizes assets purchased in the financial markets or from clients in order to create new security offerings and financing opportunities for its clients. Approximately $5 billion of the total assets of consolidated VIEs represents investment vehicles that were established to provide a return to the investors in the vehicles. Approximately $1 billion of the total assets of consolidated VIEs represents vehicles that hold lease receivables and equipment as collateral to issue debt securities. The Company uses these vehicles to obtain secured financing at favorable interest rates.
The Company may, along with other financial institutions, provide liquidity facilities to the VIEs. Furthermore, the Company may be a party to derivative contracts with VIEs, may provide second loss enhancement in the form of letters of credit and other guarantees to the VIEs, may be the investment manager, and may also have an ownership interest or other investment in certain VIEs. In general, the investors in the obligations of consolidated VIEs have recourse only to the assets of those VIEs and do not have recourse to the Company except where the Company has provided a liquidity facility to the VIE, a guarantee to the investors, or is the counterparty to a derivative transaction involving the VIE.
In addition to the VIEs that are consolidated in accordance with FIN 46, the Company has significant variable interests in certain other VIEs that are not consolidated because the Company is not the primary beneficiary. These include multi-seller finance companies, collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), structured finance transactions, and various investment funds.
The Company administers several third-party owned, special purpose, multi-seller finance companies that purchase pools of trade receivables, credit cards, and other financial assets from third-party clients of the Company. As administrator, the Company provides accounting, funding, and operations services to these conduits. The Company has no ownership interest in the conduits. The sellers continue to service the transferred assets. The conduits' asset purchases are funded by issuing commercial paper and medium-term notes. The sellers absorb the first losses of the conduit by providing collateral in the form of excess assets. The Company along with other financial institutions provides liquidity facilities, such as commercial paper backstop lines of credit to the conduits. The Company also provides loss enhancement in the form of letters of credit and other guarantees. All fees are charged on a market basis. Following certain actions taken to restructure certain multi-seller finance companies, the Company has determined that they should not be consolidated under FIN 46. At September 30, 2003 total assets in the conduits were $46 billion.
The Company also securitizes clients' debt obligations in transactions involving SPEs that issue collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). A majority of the transactions are on behalf of clients where the Company first purchases the assets at the request of the clients and warehouses them until the securitization transaction is executed. Other CDOs are structured where the underlying debt obligations are purchased directly in the open market or from issuers. Some CDOs have static unmanaged portfolios of assets, while others have more actively managed portfolios of financial assets. The Company receives market-rate fees for structuring and distributing the CDO securities to investors. At September 30, 2003, assets in the CDOs amounted to $9 billion.
The Company packages and securitizes assets purchased in the financial markets or from clients in order to create new security offerings and financing opportunities for institutional and private bank clients as well as retail customers, including hedge funds, mutual funds, unit investment trusts, and other investment funds that match the clients' investment needs and preferences. These transactions include leasing structures, capital structuring, trust preferred entities, investment vehicles and other structured transactions. At September 30, 2003, such transactions involved VIEs with approximately $116 billion in assets.
As mentioned above, the Company may, along with other financial institutions, provide liquidity facilities, such as commercial paper backstop lines of credit to the VIEs. The Company may be a party to derivative contracts with VIEs, may provide second loss enhancement in the form of letters of credit and other guarantees to the VIEs, may be the investment manager, and may also have an ownership interest in certain VIEs. Although actual losses are not expected to be material, the Company's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with VIEs that are not consolidated was $50 billion at September 30, 2003. For this purpose, maximum exposure is considered to be the notional amounts of credit lines, guarantees, other credit support, and liquidity facilities, the notional amounts of credit default swaps and certain total return swaps, and the amount invested where Citigroup has an ownership interest in the VIEs.

14. Guarantees
The Company provides a variety of guarantees and indemnifications to Citigroup customers to enhance their credit standing and enable them to complete a wide variety of business transactions. The table below summarizes at September 30, 2003 all of the Company's guarantees and indemnifications, where we believe the guarantees and indemnifications are related to an asset, liability, or equity security of the guaranteed parties at the inception of the contract. The maximum potential amount of future payments represents the notional amounts that could be lost under the guarantees and indemnifications if there were a total default by the guaranteed parties, without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged. Such amounts bear no relationship to the anticipated losses on these guarantees and indemnifications and greatly exceed anticipated losses.

Financial standby letters of credit include guarantees of payment of insurance premiums and reinsurance risks that support industrial revenue bond underwriting and settlement of payment obligations in clearing houses, and that support options and purchases of securities or in lieu of escrow deposit accounts. Financial standbys also backstop loans, credit facilities, promissory notes and trade acceptances. Market value guarantees are issued to guarantee return of principal invested to fund investors. Guarantees of collection of contractual cash flows protect investors in credit card receivables securitization trusts from loss of interest relating to insufficient collections on the underlying receivables in the trusts. Performance guarantees and letters of credit are issued to guarantee a customer's tender bid on a construction or systems installation project or to guarantee completion of such projects in accordance with contract terms. They are also issued to support a customer's obligation to supply specified products, commodities, or maintenance or warranty services to a third party. Securities lending indemnifications are issued to guarantee that a security lending customer will be made whole in the event that the security borrower does not return the security subject to the lending agreement and collateral held is insufficient to cover the market value of the security. Other indemnifications are issued to guarantee that custody clients will be made whole in the event that a third-party subcustodian fails to safeguard clients' assets. Derivative instruments include credit default swaps, total return swaps, written foreign exchange options, written put options, and written equity warrants.
At September 30, 2003, the Company's maximum potential amount of future payments under these guarantees is approximately $220.3 billion. For this purpose, the maximum potential amount of future payments is considered to be the notional amounts of letters of credit, guarantees, written credit default swaps, written total return swaps, indemnifications, and recourse provisions of loans sold with recourse; and the fair values of foreign exchange options and other written put options, warrants, caps and floors.
In the normal course of business, the Company provides standard representations and warranties to counterparties in contracts in connection with numerous transactions and also provides indemnifications that protect the counterparties to the contracts in the event that additional taxes are owed due either to a change in the tax law or an adverse interpretation of the tax law. Counterparties to these transactions provide the Company with comparable indemnifications. While such representations, warranties and tax indemnifications are essential components of many contractual relationships, they do not represent the underlying business purpose for the transactions. The indemnification clauses are often standard contractual terms related to the Company's own performance under the terms of a contract and are entered into in the normal course of business based on an assessment that the risk of loss is remote. Often these clauses are intended to ensure that terms of a contract are met at inception (for example, that loans transferred to a counterparty in a sales transaction did in fact meet the conditions specified in the contract at the transfer date). No compensation is received for these standard representations and warranties and it is not possible to determine their fair value because they rarely, if ever, result in a payment. In many cases, there are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification clauses and the contingencies potentially triggering the obligation to indemnify have not occurred and are not expected to occur. There are no amounts reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of September 30, 2003 related to these indemnifications and they are not included in the table above.
In addition, the Company is a member of or shareholder in hundreds of value transfer networks (VTNs) (payment, clearing and settlement systems as well as securities exchanges) around the world. As a condition of membership, many of these VTNs require that members stand ready to backstop the net effect on the VTNs of a member's default on its obligations. The Company's potential obligations as a shareholder or member of VTN associations are excluded from the scope of FIN 45, since the shareholders and
76
members represent subordinated classes of investors in the VTNs. Accordingly, the Company's participation in VTNs is not reported in the table above and there are no amounts reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of September 30, 2003 for potential obligations that could arise from the Company's involvement with VTN associations.
At September 30, 2003, the carrying amounts of the liabilities related to the guarantees and indemnifications included in the table above amounted to approximately $14.929 billion, including $14.894 billion for derivative instruments and $35 million for financial and performance guarantees. The carrying value of derivative instruments is included in either trading liabilities or other liabilities depending upon whether the derivative was entered into for trading or non-trading purposes. The carrying value of financial and performance guarantees is included in other liabilities. In addition, other liabilities includes an allowance for credit losses of $126 million relating to unfunded letters of credit at September 30, 2003. Cash collateral available to the Company to reimburse losses realized under these guarantees and indemnifications amounted to $52.4 billion at September 30, 2003. Securities and other marketable assets held as collateral amounted to $7.0 billion and letters of credit in favor of the Company held as collateral amounted to $1.0 billion at September 30, 2003. Other property may also be available to the Company to cover losses under certain guarantees and indemnifications; however, the value of such property has not been determined.
15. Contingencies
During the third quarter, the Company resolved certain Enron-related investigations that were conducted by the SEC, the bank regulators, and the Manhattan District Attorney. With regard to Enron, the Company made payments totaling $126.75 million. Those payments and payments for the retrospective portions of the settlements of the global research settlement announced last April are covered by the reserves previously established toward the anticipated cost of resolving these regulatory inquiries as well as associated litigation matters. These remaining matters continue to be at early stages and therefore reserves may be subject to further revision.
For a discussion of certain legal proceedings, see Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, Citigroup and its subsidiaries are defendants or co-defendants or parties in various litigation and regulatory matters incidental to and typical of the businesses in which they are engaged. In the opinion of the Company's management, the ultimate resolution of these legal and regulatory proceedings would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company but, if involving monetary liability, may be material to the Company's operating results for any particular period.

ENRON
TITTLE, ET AL. v. ENRON CORP., ET AL.
On September 30, 2003, all of the claims against Citigroup in this litigation were dismissed.
Additional Actions
Several additional actions, previously identified, have been consolidated or coordinated with the Newby action and are stayed, except with respect to certain discovery, until after the Court's decision on class certification. In addition, on August 15, 2003, a purported class action was brought by purchasers of Enron stock alleging state law claims of negligent misrepresentation, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. On August 29, 2003, an investment company filed a lawsuit alleging that Citigroup and several other defendants (including, among others, Enron's auditor, financial institutions, outside law firms and rating agencies) engaged in a conspiracy, which purportedly caused plaintiff to lose credit (in the form of a commodity sales contract) it extended to an Enron subsidiary in purported reliance on Enron's financial statements. On September 24, 2003, Enron filed an adversary proceeding in its chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings to recover alleged preferential payments and fraudulent transfers involving Citigroup and other entities, and to disallow or to subordinate bankruptcy claims that Citigroup and other entities have filed against Enron.
Research
In connection with the global research settlement, on October 31, 2003, final judgment was entered against CGMI and nine other investment banks. In addition, Citigroup has entered into separate settlement agreements with numerous states and certain U.S. territories.
WORLDCOM
