Risky subprime loans delivered a huge blow to the financial services giant. The mortgage meltdown forced Citigroup to post the worst fourth-quarter loss in its 196-year history: $10 billion. The company also had to write down $18.1 billion on mortgage-backed securities and cut its dividend by 41%. Chief Executive Charles Prince was shown the door, and the company's shares fell 47%, making it the worst-performing Dow Jones industrial average component in 2007.

To solidify its balance sheet, Citi has raised about $20 billion since November from investors in Abu Dhabi, Singapore and New Jersey.
