CitiFirst is the brand name for Citi’s offering of investments including notes, deposits, certificates and OTC strategies. Tailored to meet the needs of a broad range of investors, CitiFirst investments are divided into three categories based on the amount of principal due at maturity:

Investments provide for a payment due at maturity that may be less than the Payment due at maturity may be principal amount and in some cases may be zero, and are for investors who are less than the principal amount seeking the potential for current income and/or growth, in addition to partial or contingent downside protection

Investments provide for a payment at maturity that may be zero and are for Payment due at maturity investors who are willing to take full market risk in return for either leveraged may be zero principal appreciation at a predetermined rate or access to a unique underlying strategy

All returns and any principal amount due at maturity are subject to the applicable issuer or guarantor credit risk, with the exception of the Market-Linked Certificates of Deposit which has FDIC insurance, subject to applicable limitations.

CitiFirst operates across all asset classes meaning that underlying assets include equities, commodities, currencies, interest rates and alternative investments. When depicting a specific product, the relevant underlying asset will be shown as a symbol on the cube:
