Operating expenses dipped 2% year-on-year to $10.5bn.

The fall in expenses was due to efficiency savings along with the wind-down of legacy assets, the bank noted.

The bank’s CET1 capital ratio at the end of June 2019 was 11.9%, stable compared to the previous quarter.

Citi CEO Michael Corbat said: “Our earnings per share of $1.95 for the second quarter were 20% higher than one year ago. We navigated an uncertain environment successfully by executing our strategy, and by showing disciplined expense, credit and risk management.

“We increased our Return on Assets year-over-year to 97 basis points; and generated a Return on Tangible Common Equity of 11.9%, over 100 basis points better than last year.

“We delivered positive operating leverage for the 11th straight quarter and improved our efficiency, while again increasing loans and deposits.”
