Citigroup and the Government to Put Limit in Losses in the Forex Market

The rumors have been going on: Citigroup, one of the largest financial services companies in the world, is currently thinking of cutting back jobs, which means that there will be thousands of employees all over the world who will be losing their jobs before Christmas.It is definitely such a huge threat, and for that, the government is thinking of helping the company to make sure that they can limit their losses in the forex market. Because the currency rates are falling, they have already garnered toxic assets. So far, the company has already garnered over $100 billion of it, after their shares have already lowered down and they eventually lost. This, in turn, definitely hurt the company, thereby forcing them to think of reducing the costs extensively.As of the moment, the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve are already in the talks with the Citigroup. There are also several U.S. regulators that have joined in the discussion. They have been in meeting during the entire weekend, and the results may be released this week, probably on Monday. Nevertheless, other pertinent details such as those who are really involved in the talks and issues that may have been reached are not known since they are left confidential. But to get an overview, the plan is to actually make sure that the assets of Citigroup will remain in the company and that the government will assume the losses, but only a portion of it.
