Trading Account Assets and Liabilities

 

Trading account assets include debt and marketable equity securities, derivatives in a receivable position, residual interests in securitizations and physical commodities inventory. In addition (as set out in Note 27 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), certain assets that Citigroup has elected to carry at fair value under SFAS 159, such as loans and purchased guarantees, are also included in Trading account assets.

 

Trading account liabilities include securities sold, not yet purchased (short positions), and derivatives in a net payable position, as well as certain liabilities that Citigroup has elected to carry at fair value under SFAS 159 or SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (SFAS 155) as set out in Note 27 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Other than physical commodities inventory, all trading account assets and liabilities are carried at fair value. Revenues generated from trading assets and trading liabilities are generally reported in Principal transactions and include realized gains and losses as well as unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of such instruments. Interest income on trading assets is recorded in Interest revenue reduced by interest expense on trading liabilities.

 

Physical commodities inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market (LOCOM) with related gains or losses reported in Principal transactions. Realized gains and losses on sales of commodities inventory are included in Principal transactions on a “first in, first out” basis.

 

Derivatives used for trading purposes include interest rate, currency, equity, credit, and commodity swap agreements, options, caps and floors, warrants, and financial and commodity futures and forward contracts. Derivative asset and liability positions are presented net by counterparty on the Consolidated Balance Sheet when a valid master netting agreement exists and the other conditions set out in FASB Interpretation No. 39, “Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts” (FIN 39) are met.

 

The Company uses a number of techniques to determine the fair value of trading assets and liabilities, all of which are described in Note 26 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Trading Account Assets (Liabilities)

Trading account assets include debt and marketable equity securities, derivatives in a receivable position, residual interests in securitizations, and physical commodities inventory. In addition, certain assets that Citigroup has elected to carry at fair value under SFAS 155 and SFAS 159, such as certain loans and purchase guarantees, are also included in trading account assets. Trading account liabilities include securities sold, not yet purchased (short positions) and derivatives in a net payable position as well as certain liabilities that Citigroup has elected to carry at fair value under SFAS 155 and SFAS 159.

All trading account assets and liabilities are reported at their fair value, except for physical commodities inventory which is carried at the lower of cost or market, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in current income.

During 2008 trading account assets decreased by $161 billion, or 30%, due to:

 

 

$127 billion, or 70%, decrease in corporate and other debt securities, driven by a decrease in the SIV assets, a decrease in commercial paper trading assets and the transfer of trading assets to investments held-to-maturity and available-for-sale (see “Reclassification of Financial Assets” on page 87);

 

$58 billion, or 55%, decrease in equity securities;

 

$35 billion, or 62%, decrease in mortgage loans and collateralized mortgage securities (CMOs); and

 

$9 billion, or 49%, decrease in state and municipal securities;

offset by:

 

 

$38 billion, or 50%, increase in revaluation gains primarily consisting of increases from interest rates, foreign exchange and credit derivative contracts, offset by an increase in netting permitted under master netting agreements;

$12 billion, or 38%, increase in U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities;

 

$5 billion, or 10%, increase in foreign government securities; and

 

$13 billion, or 85%, net increase in other trading securities.

Total average trading account assets were $381 billion in 2008, compared to $441 billion in 2007, yielding average rates of 4.6% and 4.2%, respectively.

During 2008 trading account liabilities decreased by $15 billion, or 8%, due to:

 

 

$13 billion, or 13%, increase in revaluation losses primarily consisting of increases from interest rates, foreign exchange and credit derivative contracts, offset by an increase in netting permitted under master netting agreements; and

 

$28 billion, or 35%, decrease in securities sold, not yet purchased, comprising a $28 billion decrease in debt securities, while U.S. Treasury securities remained flat.

In 2008, average trading account liabilities were $76 billion, yielding an average rate of 1.7%, compared to $105 billion and 1.4% in the prior year.
