Excluding divestiture-related impacts and the incremental FDIC special assessment, expenses increased 5%.
Citi's cost of credit was approximately $2.4 billion versus $2.0 billion in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher cards net credit losses in Branded Cards and Retail Services in USPB, largely reflecting the continued maturation of cards loan vintages originated during the pandemic.
