2.150% Notes due 2018
The notes will mature on July 30, 2018 and will bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 2.150% per annum. Interest on the notes is
payable semiannually on the 30th day of each, January and July commencing January 30, 2016. The notes may not be redeemed prior to
maturity unless changes involving United States taxation occur which could require Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup") to pay additional amounts
as described under "Description of Notes."
The notes were offered globally for sale in the United States, Europe, Asia and elsewhere where it is lawful to make such offers. The
Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the "CSSF") is the competent authority in Luxembourg for the purpose of
Directive 2003/71/EC, as amended by Directive 2010/73/EU (the "Prospectus Directive"), and the Luxembourg law on prospectuses for

Rights; ranking; limitations to rights
The holders of notes have an interest claim and

notes are senior unsecured obligations of the
issuer and rank pari passu with all other
unsecured senior debt.
The Notes cannot be redeemed prior to their
stated maturity (except for taxation reasons or
upon the occurrence of an event of default).
Citigroup will have the right (but not the
obligation) to redeem the Notes for taxation
reasons if it is required to pay additional
amounts on the Notes due to the imposition of
U.S. withholding taxes. Events of default that
would cause an early redemption of the Notes
are Citigroup's failure to pay a required interest
payment within a cure period, failure to pay
principal when due, failure to observe an
indenture covenant within a cure period, and
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
affecting Citigroup.

Interest rate; payment dates; maturity
See Element C.8. Fixed rate of 2.150% payable
semiannually on the 30th of each January and
July commencing January 30, 2016. Interest on

July 30, 2018. The interest rate applicable to
the first interest period is 2.150%. Principal of
the notes will be paid in a single installment at
maturity. The yield of the notes is calculated by
dividing the interest rate by the price to the
public. Therefore, the initial yield of the notes
is approximately 2.150% per annum. The Bank
of New York Mellon is the trustee for
noteholders.

Section D - Risks
D.2
Key risks specific to the Issuer
The ability of Citigroup to fulfill its obligations
under the notes is dependent on the earnings of
its subsidiaries.
Under U.S. banking law, Citigroup may be
required to apply its available funds to support

Reduction of Citigroup's ratings may reduce
the market value and liquidity of the notes.
The notes may be fully subordinated to
interests held by the U.S. Government in the
event of a receivership, insolvency or similar
proceeding.
Citigroup's operations may be adversely
affected by final regulations relating to
significant portions of its businesses.
Citigroup's ability to effectively compete with
other financial institutions may be adversely
affected by new regulations.
Citigroup's extensive global network subjects
it to international and emerging markets risks.
Maintaining adequate liquidity depends on
numerous factors, some of which are outside
Citigroup's control.
Uncertainty arising from the continuing
Eurozone debt and economic crisis could
adversely impact Citigroup's business, results
of operations or financial condition.
Citigroup's ability to conduct its business
could be adversely affected by its failure to
maintain required levels of capital.
A material part of Citigroup's business
involves credit risk.
7

Early repayment of notes may expose an
investor to reinvestment risk.
Legal investment considerations may restrict

Implementation of the EU Savings Directive
may affect withholding of tax on notes.

RISK FACTORS
Relating to Citigroup
The ability of Citigroup to fulfill its obligations under the notes is dependent on the earnings of its
subsidiaries.
Citigroup is a holding company that does not engage in any material amount of business activities that
generate revenues. Citigroup services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances from its subsidiaries.
Its subsidiaries that operate in the banking and securities businesses can only pay dividends if they are in
compliance with applicable regulatory requirements imposed on them by federal and state regulatory authorities.
Its subsidiaries may be subject to credit agreements that also may restrict their ability to pay dividends. If such
subsidiaries did not realize sufficient earnings to satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, or if such
requirements were changed to further restrict the ability of such subsidiaries to pay dividends to Citigroup,
Citigroup's ability to fulfill its obligations under the notes may be adversely affected.
Under U.S. banking law, Citigroup may be required to apply its available funds to support the financial
position of its banking subsidiaries, rather than to fulfill its obligations under the notes.
Under longstanding policy of The Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, a bank holding
company (such as Citigroup) is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks and to
commit resources to support such banks. As a result of that policy, Citigroup may be required to commit
resources (in the form of investments or loans) to its subsidiary banks in amounts or at times that could adversely
affect its ability to also fulfill its obligations under the notes.
Reduction of Citigroup's ratings may reduce the market value and liquidity of the notes.
Each rating agency rating may reduce or withdraw its ratings of Citigroup at any time in the future if, in its
judgment, circumstances warrant a change. No rating agency is obligated to maintain its ratings at their current
levels. If a rating agency reduces or withdraws its rating of Citigroup, the liquidity and market value of the notes
are likely to be adversely affected.
The notes may be fully subordinated to interests held by the U.S. government.
In the event of a receivership, insolvency or similar proceeding involving Citigroup, including a proceeding
under the "orderly liquidation authority" provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act of 2010, the notes may be subordinated to interests held by the U.S. government, including its
agencies.
Citigroup's operations may be adversely affected by final regulations relating to significant portions of its
businesses.
Regulators in the United States and Europe have proposed or adopted numerous new regulations that could
restrict Citigroup's businesses and operations. These regulations include, or may include, (a) increased levels of
required capital and liquidity, (b) restrictions on derivatives, securitizations and principal transactions, (c) increased
costs of compliance and (d) provisions to facilitate orderly resolution of large financial institutions. Adoption of
these measures, or others that are not presently known, could adversely affect Citigroup's operations.
Citigroup's ability to effectively compete with other financial institutions may be adversely affected by
new regulations.
Citigroup continues to be subject to significant regulatory changes and uncertainties both in the United
States and the non-U.S. jurisdictions in which it operates. Citigroup may be subject to more stringent regulations,
and incur additional compliance costs, compared to its U.S. competitors because of the global nature of its
operations or its size. In addition, Citigroup may be subject to more, or more stringent, regulations than its
9

foreign competitors because of several U.S. regulatory initiatives. Differences in substance and severity of
regulations across jurisdictions could significantly reduce Citigroup's ability to compete.
Citigroup's extensive global network subjects it to international and emerging markets risks.
Risks associated with a global network include sovereign volatility, political events, foreign exchange
controls, limitations on investments, socio-political instability, currency devaluations, nationalization, closure of
branches or subsidiaries and confiscation of assets. These risks could place Citigroup's staff and operations in
danger and may result in financial losses.
Maintaining adequate liquidity depends on numerous factors, some of which are outside Citigroup's
control.
As a global financial institution, adequate liquidity and sources of funding are essential to Citigroup's
businesses. Liquidity and funding sources can be negatively impacted by factors it cannot control, such as
disruptions in the financial markets, negative perceptions about the financial services industry in general or
negative investor perceptions of Citigroup's financial position or creditworthiness.
Uncertainty arising from the continuing Eurozone debt and economic crisis could adversely impact
Citigroup's business, results of operations or financial condition.
Several European countries continue to experience credit deterioration due to weaknesses in their economic
and fiscal situations. Concerns have been raised as to the financial, political and legal effectiveness of measures
taken to date and the ability of these countries to adhere to austerity, reforms and similar measures. These ongoing
conditions have caused, and are like to continue to cause, disruptions in the global and Eurozone financial markets,
creating uncertainty and could negatively impact Citigroup's businesses, results of operation or financial condition.
Citigroup's ability to conduct its business could be adversely affected by its failure to maintain required
levels of capital.
Proposed and adopted regulations would increase the level of capital required to be held by Citigroup, as
well as its quality (such as capital required to be held as common equity). Failure to satisfy these new capital
requirements could result in restrictions on Citigroup's businesses and permitted activities, which in turn could
negatively affect its results of operation.
A material part of Citigroup's business involves credit risk.
As a lender to corporations, governments, institutions and consumers, Citigroup's results of operation
depend in part upon the ability of borrowers to repay their loans with interest. In the event of a severe downturn
in the economic environment, such as a recession, the inability of borrowers to repay could adversely affect
Citigroup's results of operation.
Relating to the Notes
Changes in exchange rates could reduce the market value of the notes and the value of payments on the
notes to an investor.
An investment in notes denominated in a currency (the "specified currency") that is not the currency of the
investor's jurisdiction (the "investor's currency") entails risks that are not present in a similar investment in a
debt security denominated in the investor's currency. These risks include:
·
The possibility of significant market changes in rates of exchange between the investor's currency and
the specified currency and
·
The possibility of significant changes in rates of exchange between the investor's currency and the
specified currency resulting from official redenomination or revaluation of the specified currency or
the investor's currency.
