Selected Risk Considerations |
· You may lose up to 70% of your investment. If the worst performing index depreciates by more than the buffer amount, the absolute return feature will no longer be available and you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which that depreciation exceeds the buffer amount. · The securities do not pay interest. · Your potential for positive return from depreciation of the worst performing index is limited. The return potential of the securities in the event that the final index level of the worst performing index is less than its initial index level is limited to 30%. Any decline in the final index level of the worst performing index from its initial index level by more than 30% will result in a loss, rather than a positive return, on the securities. · The securities are subject to the risks of both underlying indices and will be negatively affected if either of the underlying indices performs poorly, even if the other underlying index performs well. · You will not benefit in any way from the performance of the better performing index. · You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship between the underlying indices. · Your payment at maturity depends on the closing level of the worst performing index on a single day. · Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in either of the underlying indices. · The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. defaults on its obligations under the securities and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you under the securities. · The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. · The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be less than the issue price. For more information about the estimated value of the securities, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. · The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. · The EURO STOXX 50® Index is subject to risks associated with non-U.S. markets. · The performance of the EURO STOXX 50® Index will not be adjusted for changes in the exchange rate between the euro and the U.S. dollar. · The issuer and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest with you. · The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear. The above summary of selected risks does not describe all of the risks associated with an investment in the securities. You should read the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and product supplement for a more complete description of risks relating to the securities. |
