Citigroup Hires Robert Lighthizer, Trump’s Former Trade Czar
In This Article:
Citigroup hired President Trump’s former trade chief, Robert Lighthizer, to advise the bank and its clients on how to navigate the new administration’s global trade war. Lighthizer, who served as the head of the U.S. Trade Representative between 2017 and 2021, is a well-known hawk when it comes to tariffs. Lighthizer started his new job just before Trump’s tariff plans and subsequent pause upended corporate strategy plans and sent markets into turmoil.
