"It's not enough to see racism, we have to root it out. It's not enough to declare support for equity, we have to lead."
Jane Fraser, CEO of Citi
"Racism continues to be at the root of so much pain and ugliness in our society – from the streets of Minneapolis to the disparities inflicted by COVID-19. As long as that's true, America's twin ideals of freedom and equality will remain out of reach."
from Mark Mason, CFO of Citi
