An ex-Citigroup banker has come forward with allegations that she was wrongfully terminated for refusing to provide false data to a regulatory body. The former employee claims that she was pressured by higher-ups within the company to manipulate information in order to mislead the regulator.
According to the whistleblower, she was asked to provide inaccurate data that would paint a more favorable picture of the bank's financial health than was actually the case. When she refused to comply with these demands, she was allegedly subjected to retaliation in the form of termination from her position.
