Citigroup Inc., the third-biggest U.S. bank, said it will show trading clients how the lender is managing their funds as regulators probe missing customer cash at MF Global Holdings Ltd. and Peregrine Financial Group Inc.
Customers using New York-based Citigroup to buy and sell futures and over-the-counter derivative products can now see how much client funds the bank holds, Christopher Perkins, global head of OTC clearing, said today in a phone interview. Clients can use a Citigroup website to monitor the composition of the funds and where they’re being held, he said.
