Citi with over 1.5 trillion in assets. Sure they fell with the other financial institutions behind the mortgage mess, that was completely unavoidable when you have Alan Greenspan encouraging them to take advantage of the situation. Sure there was People that saw it coming but no one spoke up about it when those individuals cleaned up house with millions of dollars earned from most home owners losses... The Inbalance of income is ridiculous from the hedge fund managers who obviously made over 200 percent or more profit from americans loosing their homes. But never Fear Citi has a very strong Marketing Hub Called Primerica where there is no recession at all, thats the beauty of the company all of its subsideries are all financially independent to take care of themselves, thats how they remained number 1 and their board of directors has alwys been very strong with Sandy Weill on board with the Saudi Prince.
