RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INCOME AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Citigroup reported core income of $3.660 billion or $0.71 per diluted common
share in the 2001 first quarter, both down 7% from $3.939 billion or $0.76 in
the 2000 first quarter. Core income in the 2001 first quarter excluded an
after-tax charge of $80 million for restructuring-related items and an after-tax
charge of $42 million, reflecting the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 133
(as described in Notes 2 and 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,
respectively). Net income for the quarter was $3.538 billion or $0.69 per
diluted share, both down 8% from $3.856 billion or $0.75 in the year-ago
quarter. Core income return on common equity was 22.5% compared to 27.3% a year
ago.
Global Consumer increased $271 million or 18% while Global Corporate declined
$140 million or 7%. Global Investment Management and Private Banking grew $19
million or 11%, while Investment Activities decreased $497 million or 79% from
the exceptionally strong 2000 first quarter.
REVENUES, NET OF INTEREST EXPENSE
Adjusted revenues, net of interest expense, of $21.0 billion in the 2001 first
quarter were up $1.2 billion or 6% from the 2000 first quarter. Global Consumer
revenues were up $957 million or 10% in the 2001 first quarter to $10.5 billion,
led by Banking/Lending, up $623 million or 14%, including increases of $453
million or 18% in Cards, and $117 million or 10% in CitiFinancial. International
was up $227 million or 10%, primarily from Japan, which was up $233 million or
39%, reflecting the effect of recent acquisitions and higher business volumes.
The Insurance businesses grew $184 million or 7% largely due to increases at
Travelers Life & Annuity, which grew $120 million or 12% from the year-ago
quarter.
Global Corporate revenues of $9.5 billion increased $933 million or 11% from the
2000 first quarter, led by a $386 million or 7% increase in the Corporate and
Investment Bank, reflecting strong increases in investment banking and principal
transactions that were partially offset by a decline in commission and fee
income. Additionally, Emerging Markets Corporate Banking and Global Transaction
Services was up $296 million or 19%, reflecting broad-based growth in
trading-related and transaction services revenues
2
and the impact of the Bank Handlowy acquisition. Commercial Lines revenues grew
$251 million or 15%, reflecting rate increases and the impact of acquisitions,
partially offset by lower net investment income.
Revenues from Investment Activities in the 2001 first quarter declined $782
million or 77% from year-ago levels, reflecting decreased venture capital
results that were partially offset by increased gains in the insurance
portfolio. Global Investment Management and Private Banking revenues of $906
million in the 2001 first quarter were up $108 million or 14% from the 2000
first quarter, reflecting continued customer revenue momentum as well as the
impact of acquisitions.
SELECTED REVENUE ITEMS
Net interest revenue as calculated from the Consolidated Statement of Income was
$7.7 billion in the 2001 first quarter, up $892 million or 13% from the
comparable 2000 period, reflecting business volume growth in most markets. Net
interest revenue, including the effect of securitization activity, increased
$974 million or 12% from the 2000 first quarter. Total commissions, asset
management and administration fees, and other fee revenues of $5.5 billion were
up $113 million or 2%, primarily as a result of volume-related growth in
customer activities and assets under fee-based management, partially offset by
lower Private Client transactional activity. Insurance premiums of $3.4 billion
were up $367 million or 12%, reflecting particularly strong growth in Travelers
Life & Annuity.
Principal transactions revenues of $2.3 billion were up $602 million or 35% from
a year ago, primarily reflecting strong fixed income trading results. Realized
gains (losses) from sales of investments were up $624 million to $451 million in
the 2001 quarter, resulting primarily from the company's insurance portfolio.
Other income as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Income of $1.0 billion
decreased $1.4 billion from 2000, primarily reflecting lower venture capital
results.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Adjusted operating expenses, which exclude restructuring-related items, were
$10.4 billion for the 2001 first quarter, up $1.0 billion or 11% from the
comparable 2000 period. Global Corporate expenses were up 22% from the 2000
first quarter, primarily attributable to the impact of the acquisitions of
Schroders and Copelco, increased compensation costs, and investment spending to
expand product platforms.
Global Consumer expenses were held to a 3% increase while Global Investment
Management and Private Banking expenses increased 21% from the year-ago quarter,
reflecting the impact of the Global Retirement Services acquisitions as well as
continued investments in sales and marketing activities and in research,
quantitative and technology platforms. Corporate/Other expenses decreased $174
million or 50% from a year ago, primarily reflecting a 2000 first quarter $108
million pretax expense for the contribution of appreciated venture capital
securities to Citigroup's Foundation.
RESTRUCTURING-RELATED ITEMS
Restructuring-related items of $132 million ($80 million after-tax) in the 2001
first quarter primarily represented severance charges for downsizing certain
front and back office functions in the Corporate and Investment Bank in order to
align its cost structure with current market conditions. Restructuring-related
items of $20 million ($12 million after-tax) in the 2000 first quarter
represented charges for accelerated depreciation.
BENEFITS, CLAIMS, AND CREDIT LOSSES
Benefits, claims, and credit losses were $4.2 billion in the 2001 first quarter,
up $516 million from the 2000 first quarter. Policyholder benefits and claims
increased 15% from the 2000 first quarter to $2.7 billion, primarily as a result
of increased volume at Travelers Life & Annuity. The adjusted provision for
credit losses increased 16% from a year ago.
Global Consumer adjusted provisions for benefits, claims and credit losses of
$3.6 billion were up 13% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting increases in
North America Cards and Travelers Life & Annuity. Managed net credit losses were
$1.931 billion and the related loss ratio was 2.61% in the 2001 first quarter,
as compared to $1.902 billion and 2.56% in the preceding quarter and $1.727
billion and 2.69% a year ago. The managed consumer loan delinquency ratio (90
days or more past due) increased to 2.09% from 1.78% at December 31, 2000 and
1.99% a year ago.
Global Corporate provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses of $1.4
billion in the 2001 quarter increased 24%, primarily due to higher loss cost
trends in Commercial Lines and higher loss rates in the transportation portfolio
in the Corporate and Investment Bank. Emerging Markets Corporate Banking &
Global Transaction Services provision for credit losses improved in all regions
compared to year-ago levels.
Commercial cash-basis loans at March 31, 2001 and 2000 were $2.644 billion and
$1.739 billion, respectively, while the commercial Other Real Estate Owned
(OREO) portfolio totaled $296 million and $494 million, respectively. The
increase in cash-basis loans in the 2001 first quarter was primarily related to
the transportation portfolio, the addition of Copelco and increases attributable
to
3
borrowers in the retail, telecommunication and utility industries. The
improvements in OREO were primarily related to the North America real estate
portfolio.
CAPITAL
Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) was $75.0 billion or 11.31% of net
risk-adjusted assets, and Tier 1 capital was $56.7 billion or 8.56% at March 31,
2001, compared to $73.0 billion or 11.23% and $54.5 billion or 8.38%,
respectively, at December 31, 2000.
The Income line in each of the following business segment discussions excludes
the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 133. See Note 2 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Global Consumer -- which provides banking, consumer lending, including credit
and charge cards, investment, and personal insurance products and services, to
customers around the world -- reported core income of $1.777 billion in the 2001
first quarter, up $271 million or 18% from 2000, reflecting growth in virtually
all businesses, particularly in Banking/Lending where core income grew $163
million or 21% marked by the continued strong performance of Cards,
CitiFinancial, Citibanking, and Mortgage Banking. In the Insurance segment, core
income grew $42 million or 11% from a year ago, driven by double digit growth in
Life and Annuity and Personal Lines. Income of $1.765 billion in the 2001 first
quarter and $1.502 billion in the 2000 first quarter included
restructuring-related charges of $12 million ($19 million pretax) and $4 million
($6 million pretax), respectively. International consumer core income grew $41
million or 9% from a year ago, reflecting strong performance in all regions,
except Latin America, where core income declined $34 million or 52% due to
reduced earnings from Confia, a previously-acquired Mexican bank.

services to customers through Citibank's branches and electronic delivery
systems -- reported income of $164 million in the 2001 first quarter, up $32
million or 24% from the 2000 period, driven by revenue growth along with
continued expense reductions and credit improvements.

On February 12, 2001, Citigroup agreed to acquire European American Bank (EAB),
a state-chartered bank with $11.5 billion in deposits, $15.4 billion in assets,
and 97 branches in the New York area. The transaction, which upon completion is
expected to be immediately accretive to Citigroup's earnings, is subject to
customary bank regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the 2001 second
quarter.
As shown in the following table, Citibanking grew customer deposits and accounts
from 2000, while loans were unchanged from a year ago.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $613 million in the 2001 first quarter
increased $34 million or 6% from the 2000 period, reflecting higher treasury
results that were partially offset by reduced investment product fees that
declined 27% from the 2000 first quarter due to market conditions. The benefit
of deposit volume growth was offset by reduced spreads due to lower interest
rates. Total operating expenses decreased $13 million or 4% compared to the 2000
first quarter, reflecting lower variable compensation due to decreased
investment product sales and lower fixed costs, partially offset by higher
marketing expenses.
The provision for credit losses declined to $7 million in the 2001 first quarter
from $9 million in 2000. The net credit loss ratio was 0.85% in the 2001 first
quarter compared to 0.90% in the 2000 fourth quarter (0.80% excluding the effect
of $2 million of net credit losses related to the adoption of revised Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) write-off policies) and 1.00%
a year ago. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $41 million or 0.59% of loans
at March 31, 2001, compared to $35 million or 0.48% of loans at December 31,

Mortgage Banking -- which originates and services mortgages and student loans
for customers across the United States -- reported income of $77 million in the
2001 first quarter, up $11 million or 17% from 2000, reflecting higher loan and
origination volumes, increased securitization activity, gain recognition due to
the adoption of SFAS 133, and mortgage credit improvements, partially offset by
lower spreads.
As shown in the following table, accounts increased 25% and loans increased 39%
from the 2000 first quarter reflecting strong growth in both student loans and
mortgages. Mortgage originations increased $2.2 billion or 59%, reflecting
increased refinancing activity due to lower interest rates.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $242 million in the 2001 first quarter
grew $19 million or 9% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting loan growth and
higher securitization income, partially offset by lower spreads and lower
servicing revenues due to increased prepayment activity as a result of lower
interest rates. Operating expenses increased $10 million or 10% in the 2001
first quarter, reflecting volume-related increases.

The net credit loss ratio was 0.06% in the 2001 first quarter down from 0.27% in

North America Cards -- which includes Citi Cards (bankcards and private-label
cards) and Diners Club -- reported income of $469 million in the 2001 first
quarter, up $87 million or 23% from the 2000 period, driven by strong revenue
growth that was partially offset by higher credit costs.
Adjusted revenues, net of interest expense, of $3.004 billion in the 2001 first
quarter were up $453 million or 18% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting
receivable growth and spread improvements, driven by lower interest rates and
repricing actions. Adjusted operating expenses of $1.039 billion in the 2001
first quarter were up $85 million or 9% from the 2000 period, reflecting higher
marketing costs and volume-related expense increases.
As shown in the following table, on a managed basis, the Citi Cards portfolio
experienced strong growth in receivables, accounts, and sales volume in the 2001
first quarter, reflecting base business momentum as well as recent portfolio
acquisitions.

Risk adjusted margin is a measure of profitability calculated as adjusted
revenues less managed net credit losses as a percentage of average managed
loans, consistent with the goal of matching the revenues generated by the loan
portfolio with the credit risk undertaken. As shown in the following table, Citi
Cards risk adjusted margin of 6.88% in the 2001 first quarter declined 11 basis
points from the 2000 period, as higher spreads were more than offset by a higher
net credit loss ratio and lower non-interest revenue.

The adjusted provision for credit losses was $1.186 billion in the 2001 first
quarter, up from $979 million in 2000. Citi Cards managed net credit losses in
the 2001 first quarter were $1.196 billion and the related loss ratio was 4.84%,
up from $1.051 billion and 4.22% in the 2000 fourth quarter and $980 million and
4.65% in the 2000 first quarter. Citi Cards managed loans delinquent 90 days or
more were $1.994 billion or 2.00% of loans at March 31, 2001, up from $1.573
billion or 1.54% at December 31, 2000 and $1.424 billion or 1.65% at March 31,
2000. The increase in the net credit loss ratio and delinquencies reflect a
slowing U. S. economy. Net
6
credit losses are expected to increase further due to a recent rise in
industry-wide bankruptcy filings and the U.S. economic environment. Loans
delinquent 90 days or more may increase from 2001 first quarter levels if U.S.
economic conditions continue to weaken. This statement is a forward-looking
statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.

CitiFinancial - which provides community-based lending services through its
branch network and regional sales offices, and through cross-selling initiatives
with other Citigroup businesses, and originates and purchases real
estate-secured loans through brokers - reported core income of $212 million in
the 2001 first quarter, up $33 million or 18% from 2000, principally reflecting
strong growth in receivables, including the effect of prior-year acquisitions.
Income of $204 million in the 2001 first quarter included restructuring-related
charges of $8 million ($13 million pretax).
As shown in the following table, receivables grew 17% compared to the 2000 first
quarter due to higher volumes at CitiFinancial branches, the cross selling of
products through other Citigroup distribution channels, and the acquisition of
an auto loan portfolio. At March 31, 2001, the portfolio consisted of 70% real
estate-secured loans, 17% personal loans, 9% auto loans, and 4% sales finance
and other loans compared with 68%, 20%, 6%, and 6%, respectively, in 2000. The
average net interest margin on receivables of 7.70% declined 51 basis points
from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting a shift in the portfolio mix toward
lower-risk real estate loans that have lower yields and require longer-term
funding resulting in higher funding costs.

Adjusted revenues, net of interest expense, of $1.339 billion in the 2001 first

quarter increased $33 million or 6% from the prior-year period, reflecting
volume-related increases including the impact of a prior-year acquisition.
The provisions for benefits, claims and credit losses were $464 million in the
2001 first quarter, up from $415 million in 2000, reflecting volume-related
increases in net credit losses and policyholder benefits and claims. The net
credit loss ratio was 2.57% in the 2001 first quarter, unchanged from the 2000
fourth quarter and down from 2.92% a year ago. Loans delinquent 90 days or more
were $1.599 billion or 2.77% of loans at March 31, 2001, up from $1.272 billion
or 2.23% at December 31, 2000 and $1.044 billion or 2.11% a year ago, reflecting
U.S. economic conditions and the seasoning of previous acquisitions. Net credit

Travelers Life and Annuity -- whose core offerings include individual annuity,
group annuity, and individual life insurance -- reported income of $210 million
in the 2001 first quarter, up from $187 million in the comparable period of
2000. The 12% improvement in 2001 reflects higher net investment income
principally driven by increased business volumes. During the first quarter of
2001, this business experienced strong individual annuity sales and achieved
double-digit business volume growth in group annuity account balances and
individual life net written premiums versus the prior-year first quarter. These
increases reflected growth in retirement savings and estate planning products
and strong momentum from cross-selling initiatives. Total operating expenses
decreased in the 2001 first quarter compared to the prior-year first quarter due
to the contribution of The Copeland Companies (Copeland) and CitiStreet
Retirement Services (CitiStreet), a joint venture, and the absence of expenses
related to the long-term care insurance business sold during the third quarter
of 2000. The increase in revenues was also mitigated by these two transactions.
The cross-selling initiative of Travelers Life and Annuity products through
Primerica Financial Services (Primerica), Citibank, Salomon Smith Barney
Financial Consultants, and CitiStreet, as well as strong group sales through
various intermediaries and a nationwide network of independent agents, reflect
the ongoing effort to build market share by strengthening relationships in key
distribution channels.
The following table shows net written premiums and deposits by product line,
excluding long-term care insurance written premiums:

The majority of the annuity business and a substantial portion of the life
business written by Travelers Life and Annuity are accounted for as investment
contracts, with the result that the premiums and deposits collected are not
included in revenues.
Net written premiums and deposits for individual annuities in the 2001 first
quarter were $1.545 billion, level with the $1.559 billion in the comparable
period of 2000. Sales continue to reflect the cross-selling initiatives at all
of the Citigroup affiliates, and also reflect continued penetration into outside
broker-dealer channels. Individual annuities account balances were $27.9 billion
at March 31, 2001, down from $29.6 billion at March 31, 2000 due to declining
market values in the variable annuity product.
Group annuity account balances and benefit reserves reached $18.9 billion at
March 31, 2001, up 21% from $15.6 billion at the end of the 2000 first quarter.
The group annuity business experienced continued strong sales momentum in all
products, particularly variable rate guaranteed investment contracts and
structured finance. Net written premiums and deposits (excluding Citigroup's
employee pension plan deposits) were $2.502 billion in the 2001 first quarter,
compared to $1.457 billion in the comparable period of 2000.
Direct periodic premiums and deposits for individual life insurance of $187
million in the 2001 first quarter were 60% ahead of the $117 million for the
comparable period of 2000, reflecting strong core agency results and significant
growth in the corporate-owned life insurance product. Life insurance in force
was $69.4 billion at March 31, 2001, up from $66.9 billion at year-end 2000 and
$61.7 billion at March 31, 2000.

Primerica Financial Services -- which sells life insurance as well as other
products manufactured by the Company, including Salomon Smith Barney mutual
funds, CitiFinancial mortgages and personal loans, and Travelers Insurance
Company annuity products -- reported income of $125 million in the 2001 first
quarter, up from $119 million in the comparable period of 2000. The improvement
in 2001 reflects strong net investment income partially offset by lower mutual
fund sales and increased infrastructure investment, including international
expansion. Earned premiums, net of reinsurance, were $284 million in the 2001
first quarter, up from $271 million in the comparable period of 2000.
Total face amount of issued term life insurance was $16.3 billion in the 2001
first quarter, compared to $15.0 billion in the prior-year period. Life
insurance in force reached $415.4 billion at March 31, 2001, up from $412.7
billion at year-end 2000 and $397.8 billion at March 31, 2000, and continued to
reflect good policy persistency.
In recent years, Primerica has leveraged cross selling through the Financial
Needs Analysis (FNA) -- the diagnostic tool that enhances the ability of the
Personal Financial Analysts to address client needs -- to expand its business
beyond life insurance and now offers its clients a greater array of financial
products and services, delivered personally through its sales force. During the
first quarter of 2001, 115,000 FNA's were submitted. Primerica sales of
Travelers variable annuities continued its pace, with net written premiums and
deposits of $248 million in the 2001 first quarter, in line with the $250
million in the prior-year period. Cash advanced on $.M.A.R.T. loan(R) and
$.A.F.E.(R) loan products underwritten by Travelers Bank & Trust, fsb and
CitiFinancial, respectively, was $695 million in the 2001 first quarter, up 41%
from the comparable period last year. Mutual fund sales were $994 million for
the 2001 first quarter, 17% below last year's first quarter. During the 2001
first quarter, proprietary mutual funds accounted for 59% of Primerica's U.S.
sales and 48% of total sales, compared to 48% and 39%, respectively, in the 2000
first quarter.

Personal Lines -- which writes all types of property and casualty insurance
covering personal risks -- reported income of $87 million in the 2001 first
quarter compared to $74 million in the prior-year period. The 2001 first quarter
results reflect lower catastrophe losses and the incremental earnings from the
minority interest buyback and were offset in part by increased loss cost trends
and lower favorable prior-year reserve development.

Personal Lines net written premiums for the 2001 first quarter were $962 million
compared to $897 million in the comparable period of 2000. The increase in net
written premiums in the 2001 first quarter compared to the 2000 first quarter,
primarily reflects growth in target markets served by independent agents and
growth in affinity group marketing and joint marketing arrangements, with
continued emphasis on disciplined underwriting and risk management.
There were no catastrophe losses in the 2001 first quarter. Catastrophe losses,
net of taxes and reinsurance, were $30 million in the 2000 first quarter, and
were primarily due to hailstorms in Louisiana and Texas.
The statutory combined ratio for Personal Lines in the 2001 first quarter was
98.4% compared to 99.1% in the comparable period of 2000. The GAAP combined
ratio for Personal Lines in the 2001 first quarter was 99.4% compared to 99.7%
in the comparable period of 2000. GAAP combined ratios for Personal Lines differ
from statutory combined ratios primarily due to the deferral and amortization of
certain expenses for GAAP reporting purposes only.
The improvement in the statutory and GAAP combined ratios for the 2001 first
quarter compared to the statutory and GAAP combined ratios for the 2000 first
quarter was primarily due to a disproportionally smaller increase in claims and
expenses related to growth in premiums and lower catastrophe losses offset in
part by increased loss cost trends and lower favorable prior-year reserve
development.

Western Europe -- which provides banking, community-based lending, including

of $111 million in the 2001 first quarter, up $14 million or 14% from 2000,
reflecting growth in the branch and consumer finance businesses across the
region, particularly in Germany, and a gain related to the sale of the Diners
Club franchises in the region, partially offset by the net effects of foreign
currency translation.
The net effect of foreign currency translation reduced income growth by
approximately $15 million in the 2001 first quarter and reduced revenue,
expense, and the provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses growth rates
by approximately 8, 6, and 5 percentage points, respectively, from the 2000
first quarter.
As shown in the following table, Western Europe accounts were unchanged from a
year ago as increases in loan and deposit accounts were offset by the effect of
the Diners Club sale; however, growth in both deposit and loan volumes were
reduced by foreign currency translation effects.

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $622 million in the 2001 first quarter
increased $4 million or 1% from 2000, reflecting higher consumer finance
revenues and higher banking loan and deposit volumes, offset by lower deposit
spreads, reduced investment product fees, and the effect of foreign currency
translation. Adjusted operating expenses of $347 million declined $13 million or
4% from the 2000 first quarter as costs associated with higher business volumes
were more than offset by the effect of foreign currency translation and lower
expenses due to the Diners Club sale.
The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $99 million in the
2001 first quarter, down from $104 million in 2000. The net credit loss ratio
was 1.92% in the 2001 first quarter, down from 2.40% in the 2000 fourth quarter
(2.16% excluding the effect of

$835 million or 4.78% at December 31, 2000 and $899 million or 5.31% at March

Japan -- which provides banking, community-based lending, including credit and

million in the 2001 first quarter, up $49 million or 32% from 2000, reflecting
growth in the consumer finance business, due in part to the acquisitions of
Unimat in September 2000 and the Chiyoda Trust portfolio in June 2000, and
improvements in Diners Club, partially offset by the net effect of foreign

losses growth rates were also reduced by 9, 10, and 10 percentage points,
respectively, from the 2000 first quarter.
As shown in the following table, the Japan business experienced strong growth in

first quarter, reflecting volume-related increases, including acquisitions and
increased advertising and marketing.
The provision for credit losses was $162 million for the 2001 first quarter, up
$57 million or 54% from the 2000 first quarter, primarily due to higher loan
volumes, including acquisitions. Net credit losses in the 2001 first quarter

Asia (excluding Japan) -- which provides banking, lending, including credit and

net effects of foreign currency translation and lower investment products
revenues were more than offset by a gain on the contribution of Citigroup's
insurance operations in Taiwan to its joint venture with Fubon and lower credit
costs. Income of $138 million in the 2000 first quarter included

effects.
The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $62 million in the

Revenues, net of interest expense, of $471 million in the 2001 first quarter
were down $42 million or 8% from 2000, reflecting reduced revenues related to
Confia and the 2000 first quarter gain related to the sale of the Puerto Rico
auto loan portfolio, partially offset by business volume increases in certain
countries. Adjusted operating expenses grew $14 million or 4% from the 2000
first quarter, reflecting costs associated with business repositioning
initiatives and strategy changes in certain countries, spending on e-commerce,
and increased technology costs.
The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses was $89 million in the
2001 first quarter, down from $90 million in 2000. The net credit loss ratio in
the 2001 first quarter was 4.24%, compared with 5.58% in the 2000 fourth quarter
(3.26% excluding the effect of $41 million of net credit losses related to the
adoption of revised FFIEC write-off policies) and 4.77% a year ago. Excluding
the effect of the FFIEC policy revisions in the 2000 fourth quarter, the net
credit loss ratio increased 98 basis points in the 2001 first quarter, primarily
reflecting seasonal increases. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $318
million or 4.76% of loans at March 31, 2001 compared with $333 million or 4.58%
a year ago.

Central & Eastern Europe, Middle East & Africa (CEEMEA -- including India and
Pakistan) -- which provides banking, lending, including credit and charge cards,
and investment services -- reported income of $19 million in the 2001 first
quarter, up $4 million or 27% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting continued
growth in loans and deposits across the region and partially offset by
investments in new initiatives.
Results in the 2001 first quarter include the consumer operations of Bank
Handlowy, a Polish bank that Citigroup acquired a majority interest in June
2000, which added approximately 0.3 million accounts and $1.0 billion to
customer deposits.
As shown in the following table, CEEMEA reported 50% account growth from the
2000 first quarter, primarily reflecting growth in customer deposits, cards, and
other lending as franchise growth efforts continued across the region, including
the effect of Bank Handlowy.

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. 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
number of days is set at an appropriate level according to loan product and
country.
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 Global Corporate business serves corporations, financial institutions,
governments, investors, and other participants in capital markets throughout the
world and consists of the Corporate and Investment Bank, Emerging Markets
Corporate Banking & Global Transaction Services (EM Corporate & GTS), and the
Commercial Lines business of Travelers Property Casualty Corp. (TPC).
Global Corporate reported core income of $1.746 billion in the 2001 first
quarter, down $140 million or 7% from the 2000 first quarter. The decline in
core income resulted from a decrease in the Corporate and Investment Bank, down
$264 million to $1.014 billion, but was partially offset by growth in EM
Corporate & GTS, up $93 million to $454 million, and Commercial Lines, up $31
million to $278 million.
The Corporate and Investment Bank decline reflects lower earnings from Private
Client and the investment in Nikko Securities combined with increased
compensation costs and higher credit costs, partially offset by strong Fixed
Income results. EM Corporate & GTS core income growth was driven by growth in
trading-related and transaction services revenues along with lower credit
losses. Commercial Lines growth primarily reflects incremental earnings from the
minority interest buy-back and continued increases in pricing.
Income of $1.678 billion in the 2001 first quarter included a
restructuring-related charge of $68 million ($113 million pretax).
The businesses of Global Corporate 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
the 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 commercial 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. A variety of factors continue to affect the property and casualty
insurance market, including the competitive pressures affecting pricing and
profitability, inflation in the cost of medical care, and litigation. This

The Corporate and Investment Bank, through Salomon Smith Barney (SSB), delivers
investment banking services that encompass a full range of global capital market
activities, including the underwriting and distribution of fixed income and
equity securities, and also provides brokerage services and research to its
customers. Through the Global Relationship Bank (excluding Transaction
Services), the Corporate and Investment Bank provides products and services that
include foreign exchange, structured products, derivatives, and loans. The
Corporate and Investment Bank, through CitiCapital, provides leasing and
commercial finance products.
The Corporate and Investment Bank reported core income of $1.014 billion in the
2001 first quarter, down $264 million or 21% from $1.278 billion in the 2000
first quarter. The decline reflects lower earnings from Private Client and the
investment in Nikko Securities combined with increased compensation costs and
higher credit costs, partially offset by strong Fixed Income results. Income of
$948 million in the 2001 first quarter included a restructuring-related charge
of $66 million ($110 million pretax). See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for a discussion of the restructuring-related items.
On May 1, 2000, the Corporate and Investment Bank completed the approximately
1.36 billion British Pound ($2.2 billion) acquisition of the global investment
banking business and related net assets of Schroders PLC (Schroders), including
all corporate finance, financial markets, and securities activities. During the
second quarter of 2000, CitiCapital strengthened its position in the U.S.
leasing market through the purchase of Copelco.

Revenues, net of interest expense, increased 7% in the 2001 first quarter to
$5.663 billion from $5.277 billion in the 2000 first quarter. Commissions and
fees decreased 22% in the 2001 first quarter to $1.045 billion, mainly
reflecting declines in transactional activity in Private Client. Investment
banking revenues were a record $1.235 billion in the 2001 first quarter,
primarily due to growth in high grade debt underwriting and merger and
acquisition fees and partially offset by a decline in equity underwriting.
Principal transactions revenues were $1.561 billion in the 2001 first quarter,
up $272 million or 21% from 2000, primarily reflecting gains in fixed income.
The increase in net interest and dividend income was mainly due to higher loans
and the addition of Copelco. Other income was down $5 million compared to the
prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting a decrease in earnings from the
investment in Nikko Securities, partially offset by increases in
treasury-related revenues and other fees. Asset management and administration
fees, which include results from assets managed by the Financial Consultants and
other internally managed assets as well as those that are managed through the
Consulting Group, were $536 million in the 2001 first quarter compared to $500
million in the prior-year quarter. The growth primarily reflects the Private
Client group's continued emphasis on fee-based services.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjusted operating expenses were $3.860 billion in the 2001 first quarter, up
$699 million or 22% compared to the prior-year quarter. The growth primarily
reflects the impact of the acquisitions of Schroders and Copelco in the second
quarter of 2000, increased compensation costs, and investment spending to expand
product platforms.
The provision for credit losses was $230 million in the 2001 first quarter
compared to $90 million in the 2000 first quarter, reflecting increases in
CitiCapital and Corporate Finance. The increase in CitiCapital was due to higher
loss rates from the transportation portfolio and the inclusion of losses at
Copelco. The increase in Corporate Finance was primarily due to a write-down on
a loan in the retail industry.
Cash-basis loans at March 31, 2001 and 2000 were $1.376 billion and $603
million, respectively, while the OREO portfolio totaled $108 million and $141
million, respectively, and Other Repossessed Assets were $285 million and $98
million, respectively. Approximately half of the increase in cash-basis loans
compared to the 2000 first quarter was in CitiCapital, primarily related to the
transportation portfolio and the addition of Copelco. The balance of the
increase was attributable to borrowers in the retail, telecommunication, and
utility industries. The improvements in OREO were primarily related to the North
America real estate portfolio. The increase in Other Repossessed Assets was
primarily due to increased repossessed transportation equipment in CitiCapital.
Losses on commercial 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. Net credit losses and cash-basis loans
may increase from 2001 first quarter levels if U.S. economic conditions continue
to weaken. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements"

Citigroup's EM Corporate & GTS business offers a wide array of banking and
financial services products in the emerging markets and also includes the global
operations of Transaction Services. In June 2000, EM Corporate & GTS completed
the acquisition of a majority interest in Bank Handlowy, a leading bank in
Poland.
EM Corporate & GTS core income totaled $454 million in the 2001 first quarter,
up $93 million or 26% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting growth in
trading-related revenues, double digit growth in transaction services, the
contribution of Bank Handlowy including a merger-related gain, and the impact of
capital hedging. The improvement in core income was driven by growth across all
regions and was led by CEEMEA, up $71 million to $157 million, Asia, up $20
million to $156 million, and Latin America, up $16 million to $177 million.
Income of $452 million in the 2001 first quarter included a
restructuring-related charge of $2 million ($3 million pretax).
Revenues, net of interest expense, of $1.896 billion in the 2001 first quarter
grew $296 million or 19% compared with the 2000 first quarter. Revenue growth

related and transaction services revenues. Asia revenues were up 7% as growth in
trading-related and transaction services revenues were partially offset by lower
realized investment gains. Latin America revenues were up 6% from the 2000 first
quarter, primarily reflecting growth in trading-related revenues.
Adjusted operating expenses in the 2001 first quarter increased $184 million or
19% to $1.128 billion (up 15% excluding the impact of the acquisition of Bank
Handlowy). Expense growth was primarily due to the addition of Bank Handlowy and
investments in Internet initiatives along with other volume-related increases.
The provision for credit losses totaled $47 million, down $40 million or 46%
compared to the 2000 first quarter. The decline reflected improvements across
all regions. Cash-basis loans at March 31, 2001 were $1.205 billion, up $139
million from March 31, 2000 principally due to the acquisition of Bank Handlowy
along with increases in Latin America, partially offset by improvements in Asia.
Losses on commercial 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. Net credit losses and cash-basis loans
may increase from 2001 first quarter levels due to global economic developments,
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 25.

Commercial Lines -- which offers a broad array of property and casualty
insurance and insurance-related services through brokers and independent
agencies -- reported income of $278 million in the 2001 first quarter, up from
$247 million in the comparable period of 2000. The 13% improvement in the 2001
first quarter over the 2000 first quarter reflects the incremental earnings from
the minority interest buyback and the benefit of rate increases, and were
partially offset by lower net investment income, increased loss cost trends, and
catastrophe losses due to the Seattle earthquake. The Company continues to
maintain its discipline in the competitive commercial lines marketplace and to
grow business only where market conditions warrant.
On May 31, 2000, the Company completed the acquisition of the surety business of
Reliance Group Holdings, Inc. (Reliance Surety). In the third quarter of 2000,
the Company purchased the renewal rights to a portion of Reliance Group
Holdings, Inc.'s commercial lines middle-market book of business (Reliance
Middle Market) and also acquired the renewal rights to Frontier Insurance Group,
Inc.'s (Frontier) environmental, excess, and surplus lines casualty businesses
and certain classes of surety business.
Net written premiums by market were as follows:

------ ------
TOTAL NET WRITTEN PREMIUMS $1,659 $1,299 28
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commercial Lines net written premiums in the 2001 first quarter totaled $1.659
billion, up 28% from $1.299 billion in the comparable period of 2000. The trend
in written premiums for all lines reflects the impact of an improving rate
environment as evidenced by the favorable pricing on new and renewal business.
Also contributing to the net written premium increases were the ongoing business
associated with the acquisition of the renewal rights for the Reliance Middle
Market business in Commercial Accounts, and the impact on Specialty Accounts of
the ongoing business associated with the Reliance Surety acquisition and the
acquisition of the renewal rights for the Frontier business. The increase in
National Accounts net written premiums is due to the purchase of less
reinsurance reflecting the shift in business mix from guaranteed-cost products
to loss-sensitive products, combined with the re-population of the involuntary
pools.
20
National Accounts new business was significantly lower in the 2001 first quarter
than in the comparable period of 2000, due to the impact of several large
accounts written in 2000, and the Company's continued disciplined approach to
underwriting and risk management. National Accounts business retention ratio in
the 2001 first quarter was virtually the same as that in the 2000 first quarter.
Commercial Accounts new business in the 2001 first quarter was marginally lower
than in the 2000 first quarter, reflecting the continued focus on selective
underwriting. Commercial Accounts business retention ratio in the 2001 first
quarter was significantly lower than in the 2000 first quarter, reflecting the
continued disciplined approach to achieving acceptable levels of account
profitability.
New premium business in Select Accounts was moderately higher in the 2001 first
quarter than in the comparable period of 2000, reflecting the increased market
activity resulting from the pricing environment. Select Accounts business
retention ratio in the 2001 first quarter was virtually the same as that in the
comparable period of 2000.
Catastrophe losses, net of taxes and reinsurance, were $8 million in the 2001
first quarter due to the Seattle earthquake. There were no catastrophe losses in
the 2000 first quarter.
The statutory combined ratio before policyholder dividends for Commercial Lines
in the 2001 first quarter was 100.5% compared to 100.4% in the comparable period
of 2000. The GAAP combined ratio before policyholder dividends for Commercial
Lines in the 2001 first quarter was 98.4% compared to 100.3% in the comparable
period of 2000. GAAP combined ratios for Commercial Lines differ from statutory
combined ratios primarily due to the deferral and amortization of certain
expenses for GAAP reporting purposes only.
The increase in the 2001 first quarter statutory and GAAP combined ratios before
policyholder dividends compared to the 2000 first quarter statutory and GAAP
combined ratios before policyholder dividends was due to increased loss cost
trends and catastrophe losses due to the Seattle earthquake, and was partially
offset by premium growth related to rate increases as well as the impact of the
ongoing business associated with the Reliance Surety acquisition and the
purchase of the renewal rights for the Reliance Middle Market and Frontier
businesses.
UNCERTAINTY REGARDING ADEQUACY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ASBESTOS RESERVES
The reserves for environmental claims are not established on a claim-by-claim
basis. An aggregate bulk reserve is carried for all of the environmental claims
that are in the dispute process, until the dispute is resolved. This bulk
reserve is established and adjusted based upon the aggregate volume of
in-process environmental claims and the experience in resolving such claims. At
March 31, 2001, approximately 75% of the net aggregate reserve (i.e.,
approximately $383 million), is carried in a bulk reserve and includes
unresolved as well as incurred but not reported environmental claims for which
the Company has not received any specific claims. The balance, approximately 25%
of the net environmental loss reserve (i.e., approximately $131 million),
consists of case reserves for resolved claims.
In general, the Company posts case reserves for pending asbestos claims within
approximately 30 business days of receipt of such claims. At March 31, 2001,
approximately 84% (i.e., approximately $654 million) of the net asbestos
reserve, represents incurred but not reported losses for which the Company has
not received any specific claims. The balance, approximately 16% of the net
aggregate reserve (i.e., approximately $123 million), is for pending asbestos
claims.
It is difficult to estimate the reserves for environmental and asbestos-related
claims due to the vagaries of court coverage decisions, plaintiffs' expanded
theories of liability, the risks inherent in major litigation, and other
uncertainties. Conventional actuarial techniques are not used to estimate such
reserves.
The reserves carried for environmental and asbestos claims at March 31, 2001 are
the Company's best estimate of ultimate claims and claim adjustment expenses
based upon known facts and current law. However, the uncertainties surrounding
the final resolution of these claims continue. These include, without
limitation, any impact from the bankruptcy protection sought by various asbestos
producers, a further increase or decrease in asbestos and environmental claims
which cannot now be anticipated as well as the role of any umbrella or excess
policies issued by the Company for such claims, the resolution or adjudication
of certain disputes pertaining to asbestos non-products / operations claims in a
manner inconsistent with the Company's previous assessment of such claims, as
well as unanticipated developments pertaining to the Company's ability to
recover reinsurance for environmental and asbestos claims.
It is also not possible to predict changes in the legal and legislative
environment and their impact on the future development of asbestos and
environmental claims. Such development will be affected by future court
decisions and interpretations, as well as changes in legislation applicable to
such claims. Because of these future unknowns, and the uncertainties set forth
above, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in excess of the current
reserves. These additional amounts, or a range of these additional amounts,
cannot now be reasonably estimated and could result in a liability exceeding
reserves by an amount that would be material to the Company's operating results
in a future period. However, in the opinion of the Company's management, it is
not likely that these
21
claims will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or
liquidity. This paragraph contains forward-looking statements within the meaning
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking
Statements" on page 25.
COMMERCIAL PORTFOLIO REVIEW
Commercial 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, except
when the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Impaired
commercial 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 commercial
cash-basis loans at period-end and net credit losses for the three months ended.

Total commercial cash-basis loans were $2.644 billion, $2.154 billion, and
$1.739 billion at March 31, 2001, December 31, 2000, and March 31, 2000,
respectively. Cash-basis loans in the Corporate and Investment Bank of $1.376
billion at March 31, 2001 increased $773 million from a year ago. Approximately
half of the increase was in CitiCapital and was primarily related to the
transportation portfolio and the addition of Copelco. The balance of the
Corporate and Investment Bank increase was attributable to borrowers in the
retail, telecommunication, and utility industries. EM Corporate & GTS cash-basis
loans were $1.205 billion at March 31, 2001, up 13% from a year ago, primarily
due to the acquisition of Bank Handlowy along with increases in Latin America,
partially offset by improvements in Asia.
Total commercial net credit losses of $277 million in the first quarter of 2001
increased $103 million compared to the first quarter of 2000, primarily
reflecting increases in the Corporate and Investment Bank and partially offset
by a decline in EM Corporate & GTS. Corporate and Investment Bank net credit
losses of $229 million were up $142 million compared to the first quarter of
2000, reflecting increases in CitiCapital and Corporate Finance. The increase in
CitiCapital was due to higher loss rates from the transportation portfolio and
the inclusion of losses for Copelco, which was acquired in the second quarter of
2000. Corporate Finance net credit losses increased due to a write-down on a
loan in the retail industry. EM Corporate & GTS net credit losses in the first
quarter of 2001 were down $39 million compared to the first quarter of 2000,
reflecting improvements in all regions. For a further discussion of trends by
business, see the business discussions on pages 18 - 20.
Citigroup's allowance for credit losses of $8.957 billion is available to absorb
all probable credit losses inherent in the portfolio. For analytical purposes
only, the portion of Citigroup's allowance for credit losses attributed to the
commercial portfolio was $4.001 billion at March 31, 2001 compared to $4.015
billion and $3.673 billion at December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2000,
respectively. The increase in the allowance in 2000 primarily reflects an
increase related to the transportation portfolio and the impact of acquisitions.
The decrease in the allowance as a percentage of total commercial loans compared
to December 31, 2000 was primarily due to growth in the commercial loan
portfolio. Losses on commercial 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. Commercial net credit losses and
cash-basis loans may increase from 2001 first quarter levels due to U.S. and
global economic developments, 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

Citigroup Asset Management comprises the substantial resources that are
available through its three primary asset management business platforms -- Smith
Barney Asset Management, Salomon Brothers Asset Management, and Citibank Asset
Management -- along with the pension administration businesses of Global
Retirement Services. 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, variable
annuities (through affiliated and third party insurance companies), and pension
administration.
Income of $96 million in the 2001 first quarter was up $2 million or 2% compared
to the 2000 first quarter. The increase reflects the impact of Latin American
acquisitions in the Global Retirement Services business and growth in
asset-based fee revenues partially offset by increased expenses.
Assets under management rose 1% from the year-ago quarter to $393 billion,
reflecting strong net flows and the impact of Latin American acquisitions in
Global Retirement Services, partially offset by negative market activity.
Institutional client assets of $156 billion at March 31, 2001, were up 4%
compared to a year ago, aided by cross-selling efforts including $6 billion
raised from Global Corporate customers. Retail client assets were $231 billion,
down 2% compared to a year ago, primarily due to the SSB bank deposit program,
impacting money funds, and lower market values, partially offset by strong net
flows.
Sales of proprietary mutual funds and managed account products at SSB rose 66%
to $7.7 billion in the first quarter of 2001 and represented 58% of SSB's retail
channel sales. Sales of mutual and money funds through Global Consumer's banking
network were $3.3 billion in the quarter, representing 64% of total sales,
including $2.0 billion in International and $1.3 billion in the U.S. Primerica
sold $480 million of proprietary U.S. mutual and money funds, representing 59%
of Primerica's total sales in the 2001 first quarter compared to 48% in the
year-ago quarter.
23
Revenues, net of interest expense, increased $81 million or 19% to $517 million
in the 2001 first quarter. The increase was primarily due to the impact of the
acquisitions of Siembra, Garante, and Colfondos in the Global Retirement
Services business and growth in asset-based fee revenues.
Operating expenses of $358 million in the 2001 first quarter were up $80 million
or 29% from the 2000 first quarter, reflecting the impact of the Global
Retirement Services acquisitions as well as continued investments in sales and
marketing activities and research, quantitative, and technology platforms.

The Citigroup Private Bank provides personalized wealth management services for
high net worth clients around the world. The Citigroup Private Bank reported
income in the 2001 first quarter of $97 million, up $17 million or 21% from the
2000 first quarter, primarily reflecting a lower provision for credit losses and
growth in transaction-based revenue.
Client business volumes under management, which include custody accounts, client
assets under fee-based management, deposits, and loans, were $146 billion at the
end of the 2001 first quarter, up 1% from $144 billion at the end of the
year-ago quarter. The increase primarily reflects growth in the U.S., Japan,
Asia, and Latin America that was partially offset by decreases in Europe and
CEEMEA.
Revenues, net of interest expense, in the 2001 first quarter were $389 million,
up $27 million or 7% from the 2000 first quarter. Net interest and recurring
fee-based revenues increased $17 million or 7% while transaction-based revenues,
including trading, placement, and performance fees, increased $13 million or
15%. The increase in revenues reflected growth in most regions with Asia up $13
million or 19%, the U.S. up $9 million or 7%, Japan up $8 million or 28%, and
Latin America up $7 million or 11%.
Operating expenses of $234 million in the 2001 first quarter were up $21 million
or 10% from the prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting higher levels of
revenues and investment spending in front-end sales and servicing capabilities.
The provision for credit losses in the 2001 first quarter was $2 million,
compared with $22 million in the 2000 first quarter. The decline was primarily
related to a provision taken in the prior-year quarter for a loan in Europe.
Loans 90 days or more past due at quarter-end were $65 million or 0.27% of total
loans outstanding, compared with $87 million or 0.37% at the end of the 2000
first quarter.
Average assets of $25 billion in the 2001 first quarter rose $2 billion or 9%
from $23 billion in the 2000 first quarter. The growth was primarily due to
higher loans.

decreased $68 million or 26% over the prior-year period, primarily reflecting a
2000 first quarter $108 million pretax expense for the contribution of
appreciated venture capital securities to Citigroup's Foundation, which had
minimal impact on Citigroup's earnings after related tax benefits and investment
gains. Results in the 2001 first quarter also reflect lower technology expenses
due to costs associated with year 2000 remediation in the prior-year quarter.
The Housing Finance unit charge in the 2000 first quarter represented an
after-tax charge of $71 million related to the discontinuance of the loan
origination operations of Associates' manufactured housing business.

Investment Activities comprises Citigroup's venture capital activities, realized
investment gains (losses) related to certain corporate and insurance-related
investments, and the results of certain investments in countries that refinanced
debt under the 1989 Brady Plan or plans of a similar nature.
Revenues, net of interest expense, of $234 million for the 2001 first quarter
decreased $782 million or 77% from 2000, primarily reflecting a decrease in
venture capital results and lower realized gains in corporate investments
compared to the exceptionally strong equity markets in the 2000 first quarter.
Partially offsetting the revenue decreases were 2001 first quarter realized
gains in insurance-related investments. The 2000 first quarter included losses
in insurance-related investments from repositioning activities designed to
improve yields and maturity profiles, and writedowns in the refinancing
portfolio.

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 2000
Annual Report and Form 10-K.
THE CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
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. Citigroup's credit risk
management process is described in detail in Citigroup's 2000 Annual Report and
Form 10-K.
THE MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
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.
Market risk at Citigroup is managed through corporate-wide standards and
business-specific policies and procedures which are described more fully in the
Citigroup 2000 Annual Report and Form 10-K.
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
Price risk in non-trading portfolios is measured predominantly through
Earnings-at-Risk 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 which are either designated and effective as hedges or
designated and effective in modifying the interest rate characteristics of
specified assets or liabilities. 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. Citigroup does
not utilize instruments with leverage features in connection with its
non-trading risk management activities.
Earnings-at-Risk is the primary method for measuring price risk in Citigroup's
non-trading portfolios (excluding the Travelers Insurance Companies).
Earnings-at-Risk measures the pretax earnings impact of a specified upward and
downward shift in the yield curve for the appropriate currency. Earnings-at-Risk
is calculated separately for each currency and reflects the repricing gaps in
the position as well as option positions, both explicit and embedded. U.S.
dollar exposures are calculated by multiplying the gap between
interest-sensitive items, including assets, liabilities, derivative instruments,
and other off-balance sheet instruments, by 100 basis points. Non-U.S. dollar
exposures are calculated utilizing the statistical equivalent of a 100 basis
point change in interest rates and assumes no correlation between exposures in
different currencies.
Citigroup's primary non-trading price risk exposure is to movements in U.S.
dollar interest rates. Citigroup also has Earnings-at-Risk in various other
currencies; however, there are no significant risk concentrations in any
individual non-U.S. dollar currency.
The following table illustrates the impact to Citigroup pretax earnings from a
100 basis point increase or decrease in the U.S. dollar yield curve. As of March
31, 2001, a 100 basis point increase in U.S. dollar interest rates would have a
potential negative impact of $171 million on pre-tax earnings within the next
twelve months and the negative impact ranged from $117 million to $171 million
at each month-end during the quarter. As of March 31, 2001, a 100 basis point
decrease in U.S. dollar interest rates would have a potential positive impact of
$186 million on pre-tax earnings over the next 12 months and the positive impact
ranged from $164
26
million to $186 million at each month-end during the quarter. The potential
impact on pre-tax earnings for periods beyond the first 12 months was an
increase of $1,042 million from a 100 basis point increase in U.S. dollar
interest rates and a decrease of $1,229 million from a 100 basis point decrease
in U.S. dollar interest rates. The change in Earnings-at-Risk from the
prior-year reflects the growth in Citigroup's fixed funding as well as the
reduction in the use of derivatives in managing our risk portfolio. The change
in Earnings-at-Risk from the prior quarter reflects the cancellation of receive
fixed swaps, the growth in Citigroup's fixed funding, and the change in mortgage
prepayment characteristics in our portfolio.
As of March 31, 2001, the statistical equivalent of a 100 basis point increase
in non-U.S. dollar interest rates would have a potential negative impact on
Citigroup's pretax earnings of approximately $234 million within the next twelve
months and the negative impact ranged from $185 million to $245 million at each
month-end during the quarter. The statistical equivalent of a 100 basis point
decrease in non-U.S. dollar interest rates would have a potential positive
impact on Citigroup's pretax earnings of approximately $236 million within the
next twelve months and the positive impact ranged from $189 million to $249
million at each month-end during the quarter. The potential impact on pre-tax
earnings for periods beyond the first 12 months is a decrease of $218 million
for the statistical equivalent of a 100 basis point increase in non-U.S. dollar
interest rates and an increase of $232 million for the statistical equivalent of
a 100 basis point decrease in non-U.S. dollar interest rates. The sensitivity to
rising rates in the non-U.S. dollar Earnings-at-Risk from the prior-year remains
unchanged. The change in Earnings-at-Risk from the prior quarter reflects the
change in the use of derivatives in managing the risk portfolio and the change
in the asset/liability mix to reflect Citigroup's current view of interest
rates.

A significant portion of Travelers Insurance Companies liabilities (e.g.,

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 reflects the estimated gross change in value resulting from
a change in interest rates only and is not comparable to the Earnings-at-Risk
used for the Citigroup non-trading portfolios described above or the
Value-at-Risk used for the trading portfolios described below.
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,
complex product approval process, 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
27
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 Global Corporate 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 Global Corporate 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 $72 million at March 31, 2001. Daily exposures averaged
$63 million during the first quarter and ranged from $53 million to $79 million.
The following table summarizes Value-at-Risk in the trading portfolios as of
March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, along with the averages.

MANAGEMENT OF CROSS-BORDER RISK
Cross-border risk is the risk that Citigroup will be unable to obtain payment
from customers on their contractual obligations as a result of actions taken by
foreign governments such as exchange controls, debt moratoria, and restrictions
on the remittance of funds. Citigroup manages cross-border risk as part of the
risk management framework described in the 2000 Annual Report and Form 10-K.
Except as described below for cross-border resale agreements and the netting of
certain long and short securities positions, the following table presents total
cross-border outstandings and commitments on a regulatory basis in accordance
with FFIEC guidelines. 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
28
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 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.
Total cross-border outstandings include cross-border claims on third parties as
well as investments in and funding of local franchises. Countries with FFIEC
outstandings greater than 0.75% of Citigroup assets at March 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 include:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Citigroup services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances that it
receives from subsidiaries. The subsidiaries' dividend paying abilities are
limited by certain covenant restrictions in credit agreements and/or by
regulatory requirements. Citigroup believes it will have sufficient funds to
meet current and future commitments. Each of Citigroup's major operating
subsidiaries finances its operations on a basis consistent with its
capitalization and ratings.
Citigroup, Citicorp and certain of its subsidiaries, TPC, and The Travelers
Insurance Company (TIC) issue commercial paper directly to investors. All of the
commercial paper issued by subsidiaries of Citicorp is guaranteed by Citicorp.
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. TPC and TIC each
maintains unused credit availability under their respective bank lines of credit
at least equal to the amount of outstanding commercial paper.
Citigroup and TIC have a five-year revolving credit facility in the amount of
$1.0 billion with a syndicate of banks that expires in June 2001 and can be
allocated to either of Citigroup or TIC. The participation of TIC in this
agreement is limited to $250 million. At March 31, 2001, all of the facility was
allocated to Citigroup. Under this facility, Citigroup is required to maintain a
certain level of consolidated stockholders' equity (as defined in the
agreement). Citigroup exceeded this requirement by approximately $45.5 billion
at March 31, 2001. At March 31, 2001, there were no borrowings outstanding under
this facility.
Associates, a subsidiary of Citicorp, has a combination of unutilized bilateral
and syndicated credit facilities of $21.9 billion as of March 31, 2001. These
facilities, which have maturities ranging from 2001 through 2005 are all
guaranteed by Citicorp. CitiFinancial Credit Company (CCC), an indirect
subsidiary of Citicorp, has unutilized revolving credit facilities in the amount
of $3.4 billion that expire in 2002 and are guaranteed by Citicorp. In
connection with the facilities for both Associates and CCC, Citicorp is required
to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholder's equity (as defined in
the agreements). At March 31, 2001, this requirement was exceeded by
approximately $32.8 billion. Citicorp has also guaranteed various other debt
obligations of Associates and CCC.
29
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' commitment fees for its lines of credit.
Citicorp, Salomon Smith Barney, 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.
CITIGROUP INC. (CITIGROUP)
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.

allowance for credit losses.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Common stockholders' equity increased a net $2.4 billion during the first
quarter of 2001 to $66.9 billion at March 31, 2001, representing 7.09% of
assets, compared to $64.5 billion and 7.14% at year-end 2000. The net increase
in common stockholders' equity during the first quarter of 2001 principally
reflected net income of $3.5 billion and issuance of shares pursuant to employee
benefit plans and other activity of $0.8 billion which was partially offset by
treasury stock acquired of $1.2 billion and dividends declared on common and
preferred stock of $0.7 billion. The decrease in the common stockholders' equity
ratio during the first quarter of 2001 reflected an increase in total assets,
which was only partially offset by the above items.
All of the mandatorily redeemable securities of subsidiary trusts (trust
securities) outstanding at March 31, 2001 qualify as Tier 1 capital. The amount
outstanding at March 31, 2001 includes $2.3 billion of parent-obligated
securities and $2.62 billion of subsidiary-obligated securities.
Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions 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 March 31,
2001, all of Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions were "well
capitalized" under the federal bank regulatory agencies' definitions.
On January 18, 2001, the FRB issued new proposed rules that would govern the
regulatory treatment of merchant banking investments and certain similar equity
investments, including investments made by venture capital subsidiaries, in
nonfinancial companies held by bank holding companies. The new proposal
generally would impose a capital charge that would increase in steps as the
banking organization's level of concentration in equity investments increased.
An 8 percent Tier 1 capital deduction would apply on covered investments that in
the aggregate represent up to 15 percent of an organization's Tier 1 capital.
For covered investments that aggregate more than 25 percent of the
organization's Tier 1 capital, a top marginal charge of 25 percent would be set.
The Company is monitoring the status and progress of the proposed rule, which,
at the present time, is not expected to have a significant impact on Citigroup.
This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 25.
On January 16, 2001, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (Committee)
released the second consultative package on the new Basel Capital Accord (new
Accord). The proposal modifies and substantially expands a proposal issued for
comment by the
31
Committee in June 1999 and describes the methods by which banks can determine
their minimum regulatory capital requirements. The new Accord, which will apply
to all "significant" banks, as well as to holding companies that are parents of
banking groups, is intended to be finalized by year-end 2001, with
implementation of the new framework beginning in 2004. The Company is monitoring
the status and progress of the proposed rule.
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 25.
CITICORP
Citicorp manages liquidity through a well-defined process described in the 2000
Annual Report and Form 10-K.
A diversity of funding sources, currencies, and maturities is used to gain a
broad access to the investor base. Citicorp's deposits, which represented 56% of
its total funding at March 31, 2001 and 55% of its total funding at December 31,
2000, are broadly diversified by both geography and customer segments.
Stockholder's equity, which grew $47 million during the first three months of
2001 to $47.9 billion at March 31, 2001, 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 2001 first quarter was $86.3 billion, up from $80.3 billion at 2000
year- end. Asset securitization programs remain an important source of
liquidity. Loans securitized during the first three months of 2001 included $6.7
billion of U.S. credit cards and $4.0 billion of U.S. consumer mortgages. As
previous credit card securitizations amortize, newly-originated receivables are
recorded on Citicorp's balance sheet and become available for asset
securitization. During the first quarter of 2001, the scheduled amortization of
certain credit card securitization transactions made available $3.6 billion of
new receivables. In addition, at least $9.5 billion of credit card
securitization transactions are scheduled to amortize during the rest of 2001.
Citicorp is a legal entity separate and distinct from Citibank, N.A. and its
other subsidiaries and affiliates. As discussed in the 2000 Annual Report and
Form 10-K, there are various legal limitations on the extent to which Citicorp's
subsidiaries may extend credit, pay dividends, or otherwise supply funds to
Citicorp. As of March 31, 2001, under their applicable dividend limitations,
Citicorp's national and state-chartered bank subsidiaries could have declared
dividends to their respective parent companies without regulatory approval of
approximately $7.1 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
March 31, 2001, its bank subsidiaries could have distributed dividends to
Citicorp, directly or through their parent holding company, of approximately
$6.2 billion of the available $7.1 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 guidelines issued by the FRB.

Citicorp maintained a strong capital position during the 2001 first quarter.
Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) amounted to $59.6 billion at March 31, 2001,
representing 12.51% of net risk-adjusted assets. This compares with $58.0
billion and 12.29% at December 31, 2000. Tier 1 capital of $39.7 billion at
March 31, 2001 represented 8.34% of net risk-adjusted assets, compared with
$39.7 billion and 8.41% at December 31, 2000. Citicorp's Tier 1 capital ratio at
March 31, 2001 was above Citicorp's target range of 8.00% to 8.30%.

TRAVELERS PROPERTY CASUALTY CORP. (TPC)
TPC has a five-year revolving credit facility in the amount of $250 million with
a syndicate of banks that expires in December 2001. Under this facility, TPC is
required to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholder's equity (as
defined in the agreement). At March 31, 2001, this requirement was exceeded by
approximately $5.7 billion. At March 31, 2001, there were no borrowings
outstanding under this facility.
TPC's insurance subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory restrictions that
limit the maximum amount of dividends available to be paid to their parent
without prior approval of insurance regulatory authorities. A maximum of $1.2
billion is available by the end of the year 2001 for such dividends without
prior approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department. TPC received $325
million of dividends from its insurance subsidiaries during the first quarter of
2001.
SALOMON SMITH BARNEY HOLDINGS INC. (SSBHI)
SSBHI manages liquidity and monitors and evaluates capital adequacy through a
well-defined process described in the 2000 Annual Report and Form 10-K. Total
assets were $267 billion at March 31, 2001, up from $238 billion at year-end
2000. Due to the nature of SSBHI's trading activities, it is not uncommon for
asset levels to fluctuate from period to period.
SSBHI has a $5.0 billion 364-day revolving credit agreement that extends through
May 2001. SSBHI may borrow under this revolving credit facility at various
interest rate options (LIBOR, CD, or base rate) and compensates the banks for
this facility through commitment fees. Under this facility, SSBHI is required to
maintain a certain level of consolidated adjusted net worth (as defined in the
agreements). At March 31, 2001, this requirement was exceeded by approximately
$4.8 billion. At March 31, 2001, there were no borrowings outstanding under this
facility. SSBHI also has substantial borrowing arrangements consisting of
facilities that it 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 short-term requirements.
Unsecured term debt is a significant component of SSBHI's long-term capital.
Long-term debt totaled $22.0 billion at March 31, 2001 and $19.7 billion at
December 31, 2000. SSBHI 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.
THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY (TIC)
At March 31, 2001, TIC had $31.2 billion of life and annuity product deposit
funds and reserves. Of that total, $17.5 billion is not subject to discretionary
withdrawal based on contract terms. The remaining $13.7 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 $3.2 billion of liabilities that are surrenderable with market
value adjustments. Also included is an additional $4.9 billion of the life
insurance and individual annuity liabilities which are subject to discretionary
withdrawals and have an average surrender charge of 4.5%. In the payout phase,
these funds are credited at significantly reduced interest rates. The remaining
$5.6 billion of liabilities is surrenderable without charge. 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 $984 million of statutory surplus is
available by the end of the year 2001 for such dividends without the prior
approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department, of which $158 million was paid
during the first quarter of 2001.

CITIGROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2001 and for
the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited and 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 consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
included in the 2000 Annual Report and 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 year's financial
statements to conform to the current year's presentation.
2. ACCOUNTING CHANGE
On January 1, 2001, Citigroup adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," as amended (SFAS 133).
These new rules changed the accounting treatment of derivative contracts
(including foreign exchange contracts) that are employed to manage risk outside
of Citigroup's trading activities, as well as certain derivative-like
instruments embedded in other contracts.
The Company manages its exposures to market rate movements outside of its
trading activities by modifying the asset and liability mix, either directly or
hedging through the use of end-user derivative financial products including
interest rate and cross currency swaps, futures, forwards, and purchased option
positions such as interest rate caps, floors, and collars.
To qualify as a hedge, the hedge relationship is designated and formally
documented at inception detailing the particular risk management objective and
strategy for the hedge which includes the item and risk that is being hedged,
the derivative that is being used, as well as how effectiveness is being
assessed. A derivative must be highly effective in accomplishing the objective
of offsetting either changes in fair value or cash flows for the risk being
hedged.
The foregoing criteria are applied on a decentralized basis, consistent with the
level at which market risk is managed, but are subject to various limits and
controls. The underlying asset, liability, firm commitment, or forecasted
transaction may be an individual item or a portfolio of similar items.
The rules require that all derivatives be recorded on the balance sheet at their
fair value. The treatment of changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on
the character of the transaction.
For fair value hedges, in which derivatives hedge the fair value of assets and
liabilities, changes in the fair value of derivatives are reflected in other
income, together with changes in the fair value of the related hedged item.
Citigroup's fair value hedges are primarily the hedges of fixed-rate long-term
debt, loans, and available-for-sale securities. The net amount is reflected in
current earnings under these new rules and is substantially similar to the
amounts that would have been reflected under the previous accounting practice.
For cash flow hedges, in which derivatives hedge the variability of cash flows
related to floating rate assets, liabilities, or forecasted transactions, the
accounting treatment depends on the effectiveness of the hedge. To the extent
these derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash
flows, changes in the derivatives' fair value will not be included in current
earnings but are reported as other changes in stockholders' equity from nonowner
sources. These changes in fair value will be included in earnings of future
periods when earnings are also affected by the variability of the hedged cash
flows. At March 31, 2001, the amount that is expected to be reclassified into
pretax earnings over the next twelve months to adjust these variable cash flows
is approximately ($120) million. To the extent these derivatives are not
effective, changes in their fair values are immediately included in other
income. Citigroup's cash flow hedges primarily include hedges of floating rate
credit card receivables and loans, rollovers of commercial paper, and foreign
currency denominated funding. Cash flow hedges also include hedges of certain
forecasted transactions up to a maximum tenor of 30 years, although a
substantial majority of the tenor is under 5 years. While the earnings impact of
cash flow hedges are similar to the previous accounting practice, the amounts
included in other changes in stockholders' equity from nonowner sources will
vary depending on market conditions.
For net investment hedges, in which derivatives hedge the foreign currency
exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, the accounting treatment
will similarly depend on the effectiveness of the hedge. The effective portion
of the change in fair value of the
38
derivative, including any forward premium or discount, is reflected in other
changes in stockholders' equity from nonowner sources as part of the foreign
currency translation adjustment. During the 2001 first quarter, the amount
included in other changes from stockholders' equity from nonowner sources from
these hedges was a gain of $248 million.
Non-trading derivatives that are either hedging instruments that are carried at
fair value or do not qualify as hedges under the new rules are also carried at
fair value with changes in value included either as an element of the yield or
return on the hedged item or in other income.
The effectiveness of these hedging relationships is evaluated on a retrospective
and prospective basis using quantitative measures of correlation. If a hedge
relationship is found to be ineffective, it no longer qualifies as a hedge and
any excess gains or losses attributable to such ineffectiveness as well as
subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other income. During the
first quarter of 2001, the amount of hedge ineffectiveness that was recognized
in other income was $69 million; $72 million for fair value hedges, and ($3)
million for cash flow hedges. The amount of gains or losses on derivatives that
were excluded from the assessment of effectiveness during the first quarter of
2001 was $47 million, which exclusively related to fair value hedges.
For those hedge relationships that are terminated, hedge designations that are
removed, or forecasted transactions that are no longer expected to occur, the
hedge accounting treatment described in the paragraphs above is no longer
applied. The end-user derivative is terminated or transferred to the trading
account. For fair value hedges, any changes to the hedged item remain as part of
the basis of the asset or liability and are ultimately reflected as an element
of the yield. For cash flow hedges, any changes in fair value of the end-user
derivative remain in other changes in stockholders' equity from nonowner sources
and are included in earnings of future periods when earnings are also affected
by the variability of the hedged cash flow. If the hedged relationship was
discontinued or a forecasted transaction is not expected to occur when
scheduled, any changes in fair value of the end-user derivative are immediately
reflected in other income. During the first quarter of 2001, there were no such
discontinued forecasted transactions.
The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 133 at January 1, 2001, representing the
initial revaluation of derivatives and other items as described above, was an
after-tax charge of $42 million included in net income and an increase of $25
million included in other changes in stockholders' equity from nonowner sources,
($76) million which is expected to be reclassified into earnings during 2001.
FUTURE APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS. In September 2000, FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, a
replacement of FASB Statement No. 125" (SFAS 140).
Provisions of SFAS 140 primarily relating to transfers of financial assets and
securitizations that differ from provisions of SFAS 125 are effective for
transfers taking place after March 31, 2001. SFAS 140 also provides revised
guidance for an entity to be considered a qualifying special purpose entity
(QSPE). FASB has announced that it expects to issue additional guidance that
will delay the effective date of certain provisions of SFAS 140 relating to
isolation in bankruptcy for banks subject to FDIC receivership and for certain
other financial institutions. For these entities, those provisions would be
effective for transfers of financial assets occurring after December 31, 2001.
FASB has announced that it also expects to provide additional transition time
for transfers by those entities to certain transferees, including master trusts,
for a period not to exceed five years from the issuance of the additional
guidance. It is not expected that SFAS 140 will materially affect the financial
statements.
INTEREST INCOME AND IMPAIRMENT ON CERTAIN ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES. In November
2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the FASB finalized guidance on
EITF Issue No. 99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on
Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets."
EITF 99-20, which is effective for the quarter beginning April 1, 2001, provides
new guidance regarding income recognition and identification and determination
of impairment on certain asset-backed securities. It is not expected that EITF
99-20 will materially affect the financial statements.

7. RESTRUCTURING-RELATED ITEMS

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Represents additions to restructuring liabilities arising from
acquisitions.
(2) Utilization amounts include translation effects on the restructuring
reserve.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the first quarter of 2001, Citigroup recorded restructuring charges of
$110 million, primarily consisting of the downsizing of certain front office and
back office functions at the Corporate and Investment Bank in order to align its
cost structure with current market conditions. These new initiatives are
expected to be implemented over the next year. The charge consists of $101
million related to employee severance and $9 million related to exiting
leasehold and other contractual obligations.
The $101 million portion of the charge related to employee severance reflects
the costs of eliminating approximately 1,200 positions. Approximately 1,000 of
these positions relate to the United States.
During 2000, Citigroup recorded restructuring charges of $579 million (none of
which occurred in the 2000 first quarter), primarily consisting of exit costs
related to the acquisition of Associates. These initiatives are expected to be
implemented this year. The charges included $241 million related to employee
severance, $154 million related to exiting leasehold and other contractual
obligations, and $184 million of asset impairment charges.
Of the $579 million charge, $474 million related to the acquisition of
Associates (primarily in the Global Consumer business) includes the
reconfiguration of certain branch operations, the exit from non-strategic
businesses and from activities as mandated by Federal bank regulations, and the
consolidation and integration of Corporate and middle and back office functions.
In the Global Consumer business, $51 million includes the reconfiguration of
certain branch operations outside the U.S. and the downsizing and consolidation
of certain back office functions in the U.S. Approximately $440 million of the
$579 million charge related to operations in the United States.
The $241 million portion of the charge related to employee severance reflects
the costs of eliminating approximately 7,400 positions, including approximately
4,600 related to the acquisition of Associates and 700 in the Global Consumer
business. Approximately 5,000 of these positions related to the United States.
In 2000, a reserve for $23 million was recorded, $20 million of which related to
the elimination of 1,600 non-U.S. positions of an acquired entity.
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 these assets) are being
recognized over these shortened lives, $22 million and $20 million of which were
recorded in the first quarters of 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The 2000 restructuring reserve utilization included $184 million of asset
impairment charges and $145 million of severance and other exit costs (of which
$84 million related to employee severance and $41 million related to leasehold
and other exit costs have been paid in cash and of which $20 million is legally
obligated), together with translation effects. Utilization of the 2000
restructuring reserve in the 2001 first quarter was $74 million. Through March
31, 2001, approximately 2,500 gross staff positions have been eliminated under
these programs, including approximately 2,100 in the 2001 first quarter.
Additional information about restructuring-related items, including the business
segments affected, may be found in the 2000 Annual Report and Form 10-K.

9. TRADING SECURITIES, COMMODITIES, DERIVATIVES AND RELATED RISKS
DERIVATIVE AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONTRACTS
The table below presents the aggregate notional principal amounts of Citigroup's
outstanding derivative and foreign exchange contracts at March 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000, along with the related balance sheet credit exposure.
Derivatives used for trading purposes include interest rate, currency, equity,
credit, and commodity swap agreements, options, caps and floors, warrants, and
financial and commodity futures and forward contracts. The fair values
(unrealized gains and losses) associated with derivatives are reported net by
counterparty, provided a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists,
and are netted across products and against cash collateral when such provisions
are stated in the master netting agreement. Derivatives in a net receivable
position, as well as options owned and warrants held, are reported as trading
account assets. Similarly, derivatives in a net payable position, as well as
options written and warrants issued, are reported as trading account
liabilities. Revenues generated from derivative instruments used for trading
purposes are reported as principal transactions and include realized gains and
losses as well as unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the
market or fair value of such instruments. Additional information concerning
Citigroup's derivative and foreign exchange products and activities, including a
further description of accounting policies, and credit and market risk
management process is provided in the Accounting Changes section in the 2000
Annual Report and Form 10-K.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) There is no balance sheet credit exposure for futures contracts because
they settle daily in cash, and none for written options because they
represent obligations (rather than assets) of Citigroup.
(2) The balance sheet credit exposure reflects $87.3 billion and $78.8 billion
of master netting agreements in effect at March 31, 2001 and December 31,
2000, respectively. Master netting agreements mitigate credit risk by
permitting the offset of amounts due from and to individual counterparties
in the event of counterparty default. In addition, Citibank has
securitized and sold net receivables, and the associated credit risk
related to certain derivative and foreign exchange contracts via Markets
Assets Trust, which amounted to $1.9 billion and $2.0 billion at March 31,
2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.
(3) The balance sheet credit exposure excludes $2.8 billion related to
end-user derivative products, which are included in Other assets.

10. CONTINGENCIES
It is difficult to estimate the reserves for environmental and asbestos-related
claims due to the vagaries of court coverage decisions, plaintiffs' expanded
theories of liability, the risks inherent in major litigation, and other
uncertainties. Conventional actuarial techniques are not used to estimate such
reserves.
The reserves carried for environmental and asbestos claims at March 31, 2001 are
the Company's best estimate of ultimate claims and claim adjustment expenses,
based upon known facts and current law. However, the uncertainties surrounding
the final resolution of these claims continue. Currently, it is not possible to
predict changes in the legal and legislative environment and their impact on the
future development of asbestos and environmental claims. Such development will
be affected by future court decisions and interpretations as well as changes in
legislation applicable to such claims. Because of these future unknowns and the
uncertainties set forth above, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in
excess of the current reserves. These additional amounts, or a range of these
additional amounts, cannot now be reasonably estimated, and could result in a
liability exceeding reserves by an amount that would be material to the
Company's operating results in a future period. However, the Company believes
that it is not likely that these claims will have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition or liquidity.
In the ordinary course of business, Citigroup and its subsidiaries are
defendants or co-defendants in various litigation 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 proceedings would
not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the results of the Company
and its subsidiaries' operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use or Proceeds.
(c) Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 12,
2000, as amended, by and among the Company, Geneva Group, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (Geneva), and the other parties named therein, on January 31, 2001,
Geneva merged with and into a newly formed subsidiary of the Company (the
Merger). In the Merger, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital
stock of Geneva in consideration for which the Company issued an aggregate of
4,247,738 shares of common stock of Citigroup Inc. to the former shareholders of
Geneva. No underwriters were used. The shares of common stock issued in the
Geneva acquisition were issued in reliance upon an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(2)
thereof. The shareholders of the acquired company made certain representations
to the Company as to investment intent, that they possessed a sufficient level
of financial sophistication, and that they received information about the
Company. The shares issued in the transaction were subject to restrictions on
transfer absent registration under the Securities Act of 1933, and no offers to
sell the securities were made by any form of general solicitation or general
advertisement. Subsequently, the Company registered 2,999,200 of such shares for
resale on a registration statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the SEC on
January 31, 2001.
