Citigroup response re Drummond & paramilitary violence in Colombia & cluster munitions cases

...We have had a public commitment to respect human rights since 2007, when Citi became the first major U.S. based bank to issue a Statement on Human Rights... Before making a financing decision, we assess the potential impacts and work with our clients to apply a clearly defined set of environmentally and socially responsible policies consistent with leading international standards and good practice.

... Citi has previously communicated with Banktrack on this issue, as noted on its website. Our previous response detailed our extensive due diligence of the company, which included engagement on these issues... Discussions with our client continue to focus on how they are engaging with the communities on the ground, and we will continue to assess their engagement as the situation evolves... As part of Citi’s Military Equipment policy and risk approach, direct financing and/or facilitating of lethal military equipment, including cluster munitions, is generally prohibited. The financing and/or facilitating of military equipment that potentially could have a lethal use is required to be escalated and obtain senior risk approval.
