Citibank is investigating a fraud case by one of its Gurgaon branch employee who has allegedly siphoned off money from various HNI clients.
The bank, which struggled amid mounting losses on credit cards and mortgages, has been selling some of its assets from its Citi Holdings unit. Citi last month sold a USD 1.4 billion real estate loan portfolio to OneWest bank, helping it shrink Citi Holdings to less than 20% of Citi's total balance sheet.
