Citigroup est une société financière multinationale américaine offrant une large gamme de services financiers, notamment des services bancaires de détail, des services bancaires d'investissement, la gestion d'actifs et les services de cartes de crédit, à travers le monde.

**Analyse Détaillée d'une Obligation Émise par Citigroup : Un Instrument à Revenu Fixe Jusqu'en 2030** Le marché obligataire présente régulièrement des opportunités d'investissement pour les acteurs en quête de stabilité et de revenus réguliers. Parmi les émissions notables, une obligation de type corporatif, identifiée par le code ISIN XS1273444346, émise par la banque mondiale Citigroup, mérite une attention particulière pour ses caractéristiques spécifiques et la stature de son émetteur. **L'Émetteur : Citigroup, un Géant Bancaire Mondial** L'émetteur de cette obligation est Citigroup, l'une des plus grandes banques et sociétés de services financiers au monde. Basée aux États-Unis, Citigroup opère dans plus de 160 pays et juridictions, offrant une gamme complète de produits et services financiers, y compris la banque de consommation, la banque d'investissement, le trading, la gestion de patrimoine et les services transactionnels. Sa présence mondiale, sa diversité d'activités et son statut d'institution financière d'importance systémique mondiale (G-SIB) soulignent sa solidité et sa résilience, des facteurs clés pour les investisseurs évaluant le risque de crédit associé à ses émissions obligataires. **Caractéristiques de l'Obligation XS1273444346** Cette obligation est un instrument de dette libellé en dollars américains (USD), un choix courant pour les émissions d'entreprises internationales en raison de la liquidité et de la portée mondiale de cette devise. Elle propose un taux d'intérêt nominal de 1,85%, un rendement qui, bien que potentiellement modéré dans le contexte des taux actuels, peut être attractif pour les investisseurs privilégiant la sécurité d'un émetteur de premier ordre. Les paiements d'intérêts sont effectués avec une fréquence bi-annuelle (deux fois par an), offrant ainsi un flux de revenus régulier aux détenteurs. La maturité de cette obligation est fixée au 24 août 2030, la positionnant comme un investissement à moyen-long terme, permettant aux investisseurs de se projeter sur une durée définie avec une visibilité sur les rendements. La taille totale de l'émission s'élève à 30 000 000 USD, un volume conséquent qui assure une certaine liquidité sur le marché secondaire. Un aspect distinctif de cette émission est sa taille minimale à l'achat, fixée à 1 000 000 USD, ce qui destine principalement cette obligation aux investisseurs institutionnels, aux grandes entreprises ou aux particuliers à très forte capacité d'investissement. Actuellement, l'obligation se négocie à 100% de son prix nominal sur le marché, ce qui indique que sa valeur de marché est égale à sa valeur faciale, reflétant potentiellement les conditions de marché au moment de sa cotation ou une absence de prime/décote significative. En somme, l'obligation Citigroup XS1273444346 représente une opportunité d'investissement en dollars américains pour ceux qui recherchent un placement à revenu fixe avec une échéance déterminée, adossé à la force financière et à la réputation d'une institution bancaire mondiale de premier plan.

#620">Taking credit risk on the Reference Entity by purchasing Credit Linked Notes is different from taking equity risk by investing in shares of the Reference Entity. There are a number of reasons for this. For example:

#620">(b) the obligations of the Reference Entity referenced by the Credit Linked Notes consist of borrowed money obligations or specified guarantees of the Reference Entity in respect of borrowed money obligations; holders of this type of debt will general...

#620">(c) the Credit Linked Notes reference these borrowed money obligations and accordingly, the market value of the Credit Linked Notes is related to (although not necessarily equal to) the value of these borrowed money obligations; and
