Discuss the changes in the level of disclosure between 2005 and 2018.

As part of your discussion, please address the following points:

Firstly, has the framework Citigroup uses for measuring Price Risk changed?

Secondly, what additional information about their risk management approach have they disclosed in 2018 over that of 2005? Provide at least three examples that you consider significant.

Thirdly, in what ways has the lengthier discussion of 2018 added to your understanding of Citigroup’s price risk management over that of 2005?

Please note: You do not need to discuss the actual results of either year. Also, how the numbers changed from 2005 to 2018.

Finally, focus only on the way price risk in the trading portfolios is presented by Citigroup.
