Credit Valuation Adjustment on Citi's Debt Liabilities for Which Citi Has Elected the Fair Value Option

        The Company is required to use its own credit spreads in determining the current value of its derivative liabilities and all other liabilities for which it has elected the fair value option. When Citi's credit spreads widen (deteriorate), Citi recognizes a gain on these liabilities because the value of the liabilities has decreased. When Citi's credit spreads narrow (improve), Citi recognizes a loss on these liabilities because the value of the liabilities has increased. The approximately $955 million of losses recorded by Securities and Banking on its fair value option liabilities (excluding derivative liabilities) during the third quarter of 2009 was principally due to the narrowing (improving) of the Company's credit spreads.
