Berkshire Hathaway, under Warren Buffett, made a $3 billion investment in Citigroup in 2022. This move positively impacted Citigroup’s stock and bolstered confidence in the bank. As of September 2023, Buffett remained among the top five shareholders of Citigroup.
Warren Buffett’s support has historically played a pivotal role in boosting investor confidence in financial institutions.
At Bank of America, his backing helped restore confidence as CEO Brian Moynihan led the reconstruction of the second-largest U.S. lender following the 2008 financial crisis.
Citigroup has continued its restructuring efforts, recently eliminating more leadership roles as part of the ongoing organizational changes. The bank aims to enhance efficiency and adapt to evolving market dynamics.
In separate conversations, managers in markets, risk, and investment banking at Citigroup were informed of their departures as part of the restructuring.
Though challenging, the changes are considered integral to Citigroup’s broader strategy for future growth and resilience in the financial sector.
