History of CITI FINANCIAL
Since 1912, CitiFinancial has been helping people realize their financial goals anddreams. They are in each province and in the Yukon Territory with more than 300branches across Canada. They are part of the communities in which they serve. Their
branches are staffed with friendly, knowledgeable people who live and work right in ourneighborhood. They understand our needs and can tailor a loan solution for just aboutevery situation.
A Pioneering Beginning
They started in the U.S. when Alexander Duncan founded Commercial Credit in 1912.This company was a pioneer in the consumer finance industry. In 1916, they offered aninstallment loan program to help people purchase what was then an exciting newinvention - the automobile. That led to the development of installment buying plans forhome appliances and other consumer goods.
Growing with America
In the next decades, they acquired a major credit insurer and a casualty insurancecompany. In 1944, they organized an insurance unit that later became American Health& Life Insurance Company. In 1968, Commercial Credit became a wholly ownedsubsidiary of Control Data Corporation.
Going Public
Wall Street legend Sanford I. Weill assumed control of the operations of Commercial
Credit in 1986 and took the company public. Within two years, the company acquiredPrimerica Corporation, the parent company of several investment, financial services andinsurance firms, including the well-known Smith Barney.
Joining the Travelers Group
In 1992, Primerica purchased 27% of Travelers Insurance, a company with one of themost recognizable logos in the U.S. - the red umbrella. Less than a year later, Primericapurchased the remaining 73% of Travelers, which later adopted the name TravelersGroup. In subsequent years, Travelers Group acquired Shearson-Lehman's retailbrokerage, Aetna's property and casualty business, Security Pacific Financial Services,
and Salomon Brothers, creating the nation's third largest investment house - SalomonSmith Barney.

In 1998, Travelers Group merged with banking powerhouse Citicorp to create Citigroup,a global financial services company serving 20 million customers worldwide. Citigroup'sbusinesses include asset management, banking, credit and charge cards, insurance,investments, investment banking and trading.
An International Company with a New Name
In 1999, Citigroup purchased 128 offices of Texas-based Associates First Capital,giving us more than 1,400 offices in 45 states. They then turned their focus to Canada,buying Associates First Capital offices there. In September of that year, they changedtheir name to CitiFinancial to proudly recognize their affiliation with their parentcompany and to better reflect what they do today. In November 2000, they continuedtheir growth with the acquisition of The Associates.
As part of Citigroup, they continue to provide us with a full range of exceptional productsand services to help us find a financial solution that's right for us. Citigroup is the world's
most global financial services company whose other subsidiaries include: Citibank,Travelers Life & Annuity, Smith Barney and Primerica.

Current Indian Scenario
Rapid industrialization. An expanding economy. Growing aspirations. Increasedincomes. Improved lifestyles. Availability of high quality products and services. Anexpanding market
These factors have created an atmosphere conducive to rapid credit off take. While thedemand for credit has risen exponentially, there has been a parallel increase in
competition, and credit delinquencies. In such an environment, risk assessment is ofcritical importance. Not only, in deciding on what business to book and the speed atwhich a credit grantor does so, but also in determining the appropriate pricing.
Comprehensive credit information, which provides details pertaining to credit facilitiesalready availed of by a borrower as well as his payment track record, has become theneed of the hour.
CIBIL THE ANSWER
The answer took shape when the Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited (CIBIL) wasincorporated in 2000.
CIBILs aim is to fulfill the need of credit granting institutions for comprehensive creditinformation by collecting, collating and disseminating credit information pertaining toboth commercial and consumer borrowers, to a closed user group of Members. Banks,Financial Institutions, Non Banking Financial Companies, Housing Finance Companiesand Credit Card Companies use CIBILs services. Data sharing is based on thePrinciple of Reciprocity, which means that only Members who have submitted all their

credit data, may access Credit Information Reports from CIBIL. The relationshipbetween CIBIL and its Members is that of close interdependence.
Integral Solution
The establishment of CIBIL is an effort made by the Government of India and theReserve Bank of India to improve the functionality and stability of the Indian financialsystem by containing NPAs while improving credit grantors portfolio quality. CIBILprovides a vital service, which allows its Members to make informed, objective andfaster credit decisions.
Vision and Mission
We would like to be the Catalyst in informed credit decisions, thus enabling growth incredit at better terms through being a trusted partner to credit granters by offeringinnovative solutions, empowering employees to be responsive towards changing
customer needs, and adopting international standards of technology, security andavailability of up to date information
The Benefit of Credit Bureau
Increased Credit Volumes
Credit Bureaus facilitate increased lending opportunities for credit grantors whileallowing easier access to credit for borrowers. The existence of credit bureaus in
developed countries has facilitated increased market penetration of credit (to more than66% as a percentage of GDP as compared to 3% for India) while keeping non-performing loans in check (approximately 1% of outstanding credit).
Operating Efficiencies Credit Portfolio Quality
The use of CIRs accessed from a credit bureau will enable credit grantors loan officersto accurately evaluate borrower risk by making comprehensive credit histories availableto decision makers. The CIRs will facilitate an objective and transparent assessment ofcredit applications. Concurrent borrowers and serial defaulters will be identified and
minimized early in the approval process - consequently reducing associated recoveryand write-off costs. Similarly, premium borrowers will be identified and serviced faster.Ultimately, CIRs will enable Members to judiciously mix relationship-based lending andinformation-based lending. CIRs will serve as the first level of due diligence in theappraisal of a credit application.
Speed and Cost
http://www.cibil.com/overviewin.htm -
7/29/2019 Project on Citi Financial
16/52

The use of CIRs will make processing loan applications easier, faster and cheaper bysometimes eliminating the need to additionally research and verify borrower details. Theaverage loan in India is sanctioned in 2-3 days. Credit grantors using CIRs will be ableto significantly reduce this turn round time and thus have a competitive edge in themarketplace.
Differential Pricing
Owing to the lack of comprehensive credit information, all borrowers are charged aninterest rate with an assumed level of default risk. This means that all borrowers arecharged identical risk premiums regardless of their payment history and thus pay apremium that in developed countries is only applied to previously defaulting borrowers.
As credit grantors begin to use comprehensive credit information they will be able todifferentiate between good borrowers and defaulters. In an increasingly commoditizedcredit market, credit grantors will be able to use price in order to differentiate their loanproducts.
In addition, borrowers who have diligently serviced their loans in the past will be able todemand cheaper loans in the future. Past defaulters will also have an opportunity toimprove their credit histories by servicing their debt obligations in a timely fashion andthus earn access to lower interest rates.
The Indian credit industry has only recently begun to offer differential pricing to theircustomers. As the credit environment becomes increasingly competitive, CIRs will playa pivotal role in the speed and confidence with which credit grantors will be able toincrease their business volume. Hence, the use of CIRs will prove beneficial to bothcredit grantors and borrowers.
Credit Grantors
The use of CIRs will enable loan officers to make objective and informed creditdecisions quickly, competitively and cost-effectively. The use of CIRs will enable themto increase their lending volumes and improve the quality of their credit portfolios whilereducing their delinquencies and loan processing costs. This will translate into improvedprofit margins.
Borrowers
The widespread use of credit data will provide consumers with fast and easy access tothe lending resources they need while reducing operating and risk costs for creditgrantors. These reduce costs will be passed on to an extent to consumers withdemonstrated credit performance in the form of lower interest rates. This easyavailability of reasonably price credit will provide borrowers with the means to a higherstandard of living
How to improve your credit

More credit. Better pricing. Objective assessment. These are just few of the benefits ofyour credit information report (CIR), reflecting debt obligations serviced regularly and ina timely fashion. For the first time in India, CIRs containing factual records, credithistories of borrowers are available. Credit grantors across the country can now accessreports from CIBIL in order to make quick, objective credit decisions.
When you approach a credit grantor for credit, your application will be evaluated on thebasis of your past payment history, existing credit lines and other factors such asincome and security. In this case, a good CIR is one of the best indicators of the level ofrisk you present to the credit grantor. A CIR that reflects a good past payment historymay lead to credit being granted on better terms. On the other hand, a CIR, whichindicates that a borrower has been delinquent on several occasions, could lead todenial of or extremely expensive credit.
In order to ensure a high-quality CIR, it is important to re-pay your loans on time.However, as you accrue more debt, special efforts are required to ensure this. The 'buy
now, pay later' mindset has left borrowers struggling to strike an adequate cash-flowbalance. In this scenario, it is extremely important for you to maintain appropriate,reasonable and affordable levels of credit and ensure regular and timely re-payment ofloans.
Ways to improve your credit:
Immediately establish a budget in order to control your cashoutflows.
Ensure that your income level permits an additional monthly outflowif you plan to take a loan.
Investigate your options in order to reduce your interest and other
credit related costs, e.g., refinance an outstanding loan at fixedinterest rates if there is a significant drop in interest rates or youdiscover a significantly cheaper option, etc. This will make yourdebt burden easier to manage.
Use some of your savings to repay some of your debt. Always pay on time.

Cost cutting
The reduction of the amount of money spent on the operations of an organization or onthe provision of products and services. Cost-cutting measures such as budgetreductions, salary freezes, and staff redundancies may be taken by an organization at atime of recession or financial difficulty or in situations where inefficiency has beenidentified. Alternative approaches to cost-cutting include modifying organizational
structures and redesigning organizational processes for greater efficiency. Excessivecost-cutting may affect productivity and quality or the organization's ability to add value.
Citigroup Chairman and Chief Executive Charles Prince said Monday he would releasedetails of cost-cutting steps later this week, including the consolidation of some
operations and moving others to lower-costlocations.

In a memo to employees made available to The Associated Press, Prince said the cutswere aimed at eliminating expenses while advancing our core strategic growthobjectives. The process, he said, Has been and will be challenging.He sketched broad outlines of the overhaul, but said specifics would be released at a
Web conference Wednesday. Prince indicated the cutbacks would be throughoutCitigroups operations Worldwide. Citigroup, the nations largest financial institution, hasmore than 327,000 workers in more than 100 countries.Media reports about the financial review, which has been under way since the fourthquarter, have said 26,000 workers could lose their jobs or be reassigned.Cost savings could approach $2 billion a year, they said.
Shares of CitigroupCitigroup IncC20.06 -1.16 -5.47%NYSE
[C 20.06 -1.16 (-5.47%) ]declined.In the memo, Prince said: "We will consolidate certain back-office, middle-office andcorporate functions at the business, regional and headquarters levels to eliminateduplication of effort and focus, instead, on building truly efficient, world-class businessoperations with scale."Prince also said some operations would be moved "to lower-cost locations." And, hesaid, there would be continuing efforts aimed at "rationalizing our technology platformsto operate more efficiently and effectively."Prince has been under pressure to get a handle on the bank's burgeoning expenses,which grew 15% last year, twice the pace of revenue growth.
John McCune, director of Banking Research at SNL Financial, a research firm based inCharlottesville, Va., said Citigroup's efficiency ratio - its operating expenses divided byrecurring income - had been moving in the wrong direction.The ratio, which he said represented "how much it cost you to make money," rose from60% at the end of 2005 to 66% a year later. Cost-cutting, he added, is "the classicreaction to improve efficiencies."Will it be enough? "I don't know if the Street is ever satisfied," McCune said of WallStreet analysts and investors. "But it is a step in the right direction."
