Known to the public as Citi, this American investment company is a multinational bank that also offers financial services worldwide. However, their internal operations were affected when an issue was filed against them. The Settlement Agreement was the result of such issue wherein a Citigroup monitor was assigned to ensure their compliance to one of its terms.
It was the federal government with the five states that made Citi agree to the terms of the agreement. Delaware, Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, and California were respectively represented by their lawyers. This agreement was born due to alleged claims against Citi stating that they had structured, marketed, packaged, and sold inadequate RMBS or residential mortgage backed securities, as well as CDOs or collateralized debt obligation.
One of the sections in the agreement is consumer relief. The courts, the government, and the states have appointed Thomas Perrelli as the one who will track Citi in their progress. He also will give certification that the company has met its obligations by December 31, 2018 regarding this section.
His duties will be helped and assisted by a competent team. He is going make sure that transparency is present in their reports. This will let the public, as well as affected consumers know that Citi is complying with the terms of the agreement. Their findings will be reported each quarter to reflect their progress in providing consumer relief.
His reports will be communicated through various platforms. The platforms are conducting a meeting, posting in the Citi Monitorship website, and giving press statements. During the meeting, representatives of interested parties will be present he and his team organized. Interested parties who want to know the results are the states, the public, and the government.
However, his duties as monitor are subject to limitations. This means that he and his team shall not act beyond the capabilities and duties mandated to them. Showing anything beyond that will remove them from their position, as well as subjecting them to legal reparations.
Any form of dictation and show of authority over Citi in regards to the forms of their consumer relief is prohibited. Consequently, he is never allowed to dictate them as to which of their consumers will be given relief to. It was never in his jury to show any obligatory interest to the settlement amount for it only involves them and governing bodies.
Their website shows the latest report which is Citi Monitorship Ninth Report November 2018. In it, no concrete statements have yet to imply the completion of Citi in their obligations or their certification. There were, however, eligibility issues in regards to submission of their relief under Menu Items of Appendix 2 which are 1D, 1E, and 1H, along with their credit receipt under Item 4A.
If by the time the last report comes and he determines that Citi is yet to complete the terms, then they are under legal obligation to pay NeighborWorks America, a nonprofit organization, cash payment for the remaining obligation. This is the only solution in order to complete the consumer relief. The payment will be allotted to provide neighborhood stabilization, housing counseling, foreclosure prevention, and the like.
