Subprime Bank Losses Reach $97 Billion, Led by Citigroup: Table

By Yalman Onaran

Dec. 27 (Bloomberg) -- The following table shows asset writedowns and credit losses, including reserves set aside for bad loans, at more than 20 of the world's largest banks and securities firms this year. The charges stem from the collapse of the U.S. subprime mortgage market.

The figures, from company statements and filings, include charges the firms have said they expect to report for the fourth quarter. Analysts estimate additional writedowns and credit losses of $34 billion, which would bring the total for the year to $131 billion.

All figures are in billions and are net of financial hedges the firms used to mitigate their losses.
