19. REGULATORY CAPITAL AND CITIGROUP INC.
PARENT COMPANY INFORMATION
Citigroup is subject to risk-based capital and leverage guidelines issued by the
Federal Reserve Board. Citi’s U.S. insured depository institution subsidiaries,
including Citibank, N.A., are subject to similar guidelines issued by their
respective primary federal bank regulatory agencies. These guidelines are
used to evaluate capital adequacy and include the required minimums
shown in the following table. The regulatory agencies are required by law
to take specific prompt actions with respect to institutions that do not meet
minimum capital standards.
The following table sets forth Citigroup’s and Citibank, N.A.’s regulatory
capital tiers, risk-weighted assets, quarterly adjusted average total assets,
and capital ratios as of December 31, 2013 in accordance with current
regulatory guidelines:

N/A Not Applicable

December 31, 2013.
Banking Subsidiaries—Constraints on Dividends
There are various legal limitations on the ability of Citigroup’s subsidiary
depository institutions to extend credit, pay dividends or otherwise supply
funds to Citigroup and its non-bank subsidiaries. The approval of the Office
of the Comptroller of the Currency is required if total dividends declared
in any calendar year exceed amounts specified by the applicable agency’s
regulations. State-chartered depository institutions are subject to dividend
limitations imposed by applicable state law.
In determining the dividends, each depository institution must also
consider its effect on applicable risk-based capital and leverage ratio
requirements, as well as policy statements of the federal regulatory agencies
that indicate that banking organizations should generally pay dividends
out of current operating earnings. Citigroup received $12.2 billion and
$19.1 billion in dividends from Citibank, N.A. during 2013 and 2012,
respectively.
Non-Banking Subsidiaries
Citigroup also receives dividends from its non-bank subsidiaries. These
non-bank subsidiaries are generally not subject to regulatory restrictions
on dividends, although their ability to declare dividends can be restricted by
capital considerations, as set forth in the table below.
