1 By combining our Global and Direct Custody businesses, Citi has unified the AUC/A holding data. Citi’s historical AUC/A figure separately represented gross assets for which Citi provides Global Custody and sub- custodian services via its Direct Custody and Clearing business. This is no longer a distinction in our reporting.
