Citi Cuts Bonuses 20%

January 18, 2013

[ by Howard Haykin ]

 

Citigroup Inc., 3rd-largest U.S. bank, cut bonuses in its investment-banking division by 10% to 20% globally after a revenue slump, according to people in the know.  The Asian and European divisions saw average bonus cuts of 20%, while the U.S. division incurred cuts of about 10%.  The staff were informed of their bonus numbers Thursday.

The Breakdown.   The numbers vary by position and function.

  • Bankers up to Vice President get either the same bonus as last year or get a higher bonus.
  • Most senior bankers will take cuts in bonus - except for top performers, who likely were spared the cuts.
  • Equities trading bonuses were down by about 10%.
  • Fixed income bonuses ranged from 10% higher to 10% lower.
