Citigroup payment trial turns to scrutiny of what Revlon lenders knew or suspected

Emails and witness testimony from some lenders who decided to keep their share of the $900m show they questioned whether it might have been a mistake

At the conclusion of a six-day trial over a mistaken $900m payment by Citigroup to lenders of Revlon, a federal judge and lawyers on the case focused on what the recipients knew or suspected soon after they were paid.

The lawsuit filed by Citi against several hedge-fund managers to recover money from the erroneous August payment ended on 16 December with no decision from Judge Jesse Furman of the US District Court in New York.
