Sallie L. Krawcheck is the CFO for Citigroup Inc.. Originally an equity analyst, she has steadily risen in the rank of Citigroup, to the point of Forbes naming her as number seven in its list of The 100 Most Powerful Women of 2005.[1]

In early 2006 Citigroup awarded Krawcheck $4.2 million (value as of January 2006) in restricted shares, which caused the overall value of her Citgroup shares to reach $11.8 million.[2]

Prior to being CFO, Krawcheck had been the CEO of Citigroup's (then new) Smith Barney unit, which caused her to be listed by Time in its list of "Global Influentials". [3] The Smith Barney unit was set-up in order separate Citigroup's investment banking from its stock brokering and research operations; to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest in those areas. She was put in charge 13,000 brokers and analysts of the new reatail brokerage unit.[4] Citigroup hired her away from Sanford C. Bernstein, an independent (at the time) research firm, where she was chairwoman and chief executive.[5] Sanford C. Bernstein had a reputation for impartial advice that caused Citygroup to seek her to deal with criticisms over conflicts of interest within different parts of Citigroup.[4]

Early life[edit]

Krawcheck grew up in Charleston, South Carolina. She attended Porter-Gaud School[6][7]. While in high school, she was a local track star. Subsequently, she obtained a degree in journalism from the the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She obtained an M.B.A. degree from Columbia Business School. [3]
