Bailout of banks, Citigroup

Citigroup has received two lifelines from the U.S. Treasury Department's Troubled Asset Relief Program, getting $25 billion in October 08 and $20 billion in November 08.

The second infusion involved an agreement by the government to share in some losses, in exchange for preferred stock and warrants.
