New York-based Citigroup let go of roughly 50 trading personnel this week, according to people with knowledge of the moves who declined to be identified speaking about layoffs. The firm also cut dozens of banking roles amid a slump deal-making activity, Bloomberg reported Tuesday.
London-based Barclays cut about 200 positions across its banking and trading desks this week, according to a person with knowledge of the decision.
