                               CITIGROUP INC.

     Citigroup is a diversified holding company whose businesses provide a
broad range of financial services to consumer and corporate customers in
103 countries and territories. Citigroup's activities are conducted through
Global Consumer, Global Corporate and Investment Bank, Global Investment
Management and Private Banking, and Investment Activities.

     On October 8, 1998, Citigroup changed its name from Travelers Group
Inc. to Citigroup Inc. in connection with the merger of Citicorp into a
subsidiary of Citigroup.

     On September 6, 2000, Citigroup Inc. and Associates First Capital
Corporation ("Associates") announced that they had entered into an
agreement pursuant to which Associates will merge with Citigroup. Pursuant
to the agreement, Associates common stockholders will receive .7334 of a
share of Citigroup's common stock for each share of Associates common stock
that they own. The transaction is expected to be completed prior to the end
of 2000. The merger is expected to be a tax-free exchange and accounted for
on a "pooling of interests" basis.

     Under longstanding policy of The Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of
financial strength for its subsidiary banks and to commit resources to
support such banks. As a result of that policy, Citigroup may be required
to commit resources to its subsidiary banks.

     The principal office of Citigroup is located at 399 Park Avenue, New
York, NY 10043, and its telephone number is (212) 559-1000.


                              USE OF PROCEEDS

     All shares of common stock sold pursuant to this prospectus will be
sold by the selling stockholders and Citigroup will not receive any of the
proceeds from such sales.


                            SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

     The selling stockholders acquired the shares of common stock offered
by this prospectus from Citigroup in connection with the acquisition of AST
StockPlan, Inc. by Citigroup.

     Our registration of these shares does not necessarily mean that the
selling stockholders will sell all or any of the shares.

     The following table provides information regarding the beneficial
ownership of our common stock by the selling stockholders, as of September
2000. The number of shares offered represents all shares of our common
stock owned by the selling stockholders, other than an aggregate of 88,867
shares which are being held in an escrow account in support of certain
indemnification obligations that the selling stockholders provided to
Citigroup in connection with its acquisition of AST StockPlan, Inc. See
"Plan of Distribution."

     The information provided in the table below with respect to the
selling stockholders has been obtained from the selling stockholders. None
of the selling stockholders have, nor within the past three years have had,
any position, office or other material relationship with Citigroup.

respect.

                                  EXPERTS

     The consolidated financial statements of Citigroup Inc. as of December
31, 1999 and 1998, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 1999, have been audited by KPMG LLP, independent certified
public accountants, as set forth in their report on the consolidated
financial statements. The consolidated financial statements are included in
Citigroup's annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended
December 31, 1999, and incorporated by reference in this prospectus. The
report of KPMG LLP also is incorporated by reference in this prospectus.
The report of KPMG LLP covering the December 31, 1999 consolidated
financial statements refers to changes, in 1999, in Citigroup's methods of
accounting for insurance-related assessments, accounting for insurance and
reinsurance contracts that do not transfer insurance risk, and accounting
for the costs of start-up activities. The consolidated financial statements
of Citigroup referred to above are incorporated by reference in this
prospectus in reliance upon such reports and upon the authority of said
firm as experts in accounting and auditing.


                    WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware, or DGCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify any person
who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in
the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the
person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the
person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or
proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of
nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which
the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest
of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful.

     Subsection (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in right
of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact
that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or
suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
and except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim,
issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall
determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but
in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of
Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

     Subsection (d) of Section 145 of the DGCL provides that any
indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145 (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in
the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present
or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the
circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct
set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145. Such determination
shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the
time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are
not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a
quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by the majority
vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum or (3) if there are
no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

     Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that to the extent a present
or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the
merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding
referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any
claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
such person in connection therewith and that such expenses may be paid by
the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director
or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that
such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as
authorized in Section 145 of the DGCL; that any indemnification and
advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to Section 145
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified
party may be entitled; that indemnification provided by, or granted
pursuant to Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized
and ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director,
officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person's
heirs, executors and administrators; and empowers the corporation to
purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred
by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against such liabilities under Section 145. Section Four of Article IV of
Citigroup's By-Laws provides that Citigroup shall indemnify its directors
and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

     Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a certificate of
incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that
such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i)
for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section
174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director
derived an improper personal benefit. Article Tenth of Citigroup's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of directors to the
fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7).

     The directors and officers of Citigroup are covered by insurance
policies indemnifying them against certain liabilities, including certain
liabilities arising under the Securities Act, which might be incurred by
them in such capacities and against which they cannot be indemnified by
Citigroup. Any agents, dealers or underwriters who execute any underwriting
or distribution agreement relating to securities offered pursuant to this
Registration Statement will agree to indemnify Citigroup's directors and
their officers who signed the Registration Statement against certain
liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act with respect to
information furnished to Citigroup by or on behalf of such indemnifying
party.

     For the undertaking with respect to indemnification, see Item 17
herein.

          ------      -----------
          5.01     Opinion of John R. Dye, Esq.
          23.01    Consent of KPMG LLP, independent public accountants.
          23.02    Consent of John R. Dye, Esq. (Included in Exhibit 5.01).

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (A)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

     (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

     (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
     the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
     aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
     in this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
     increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
     dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
     registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
     estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
     prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
     the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
     20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
     the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
     Registration Statement.

     (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement
     or any material change to such information in this Registration
     Statement;

     provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in clauses
(A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to
be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are incorporated by reference in
this Registration Statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

     (B) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to
Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.

     (C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

     (D)(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act, shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

     (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
