Kathleen Martin, a former senior data compliance official at Citigroup Inc., accused the bank of firing her for refusing to mislead a regulator about the lender’s data governance efforts.
Martin said in a lawsuit in New York Wednesday that Citigroup Chief Operating Officer Anand Selvakesari asked her to hide critical information about the bank’s metrics from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency because the data would make the bank “look bad.”
