New Issue: Citigroup prices $28 million 0% principal-protected notes linked to two currency baskets

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, April 25 - Citigroup Funding Inc. priced a $28 million offering of zero-coupon principal-protected notes due Oct. 27, 2008 linked to two baskets of currencies, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Currency basket A includes equal weights of the Brazilian real, Indian rupee, South African rand and Turkish lira. Currency basket B includes equal weights of the Swiss franc, Japanese yen and Czech koruna.

The payout at maturity will be determined based upon the performance of the currencies against the dollar.

If the currency basket A return minus the currency basket B return is greater than the trigger percentage of 24%, the payout will be par plus the spread of the currency basket A return over the currency basket B return.

If the currency basket A return minus the currency basket B return is greater than zero but less than or equal to the trigger percentage, the payout will be par plus the trigger percentage.

If the currency basket A return minus the currency basket B return is less than zero, the payout will be par.
