managed loans, both up 10%. Expenses
increased 13% primarily due to a $292 million pre-tax charge
related to Citis pro-rata share of certain Visa, Inc.-related litigation
exposure. Excluding the litigation
charge, expenses increased 5%. Credit costs increased substantially, driven by a
weakening of leading credit indicators, including increased delinquencies on 1st
and 2nd mortgages, unsecured personal loans, credit cards and auto
loans. Credit costs increased due to
trends in the U.S. macro-economic environment, including the housing market
downturn, and portfolio growth. Higher
credit costs and expenses drove a decline in net income.
