CitiFinancial

CitiFinancial was originally founded by Alexander Duncan in 1912 as “Commercial Credit”.  The company offered an installment loan option to enable consumers to purchase automobiles.  The concept of the installment loan then evolved, and became available to consumer for other purchases, such as appliances.

Sanford Weill took control of the day-to-day operations of Commercial Credit in 1986, and then took the company public. By 1988, the corporation acquired Primerica Corporation, followed by the acquisition of Travelers Group—where the well-known “red umbrella” was trademarked. 

In 1998 the company merged with Citicorp, and formed Citigroup, followed by the 2000 acquisition of Associates First Capital Corporation; the largest publicly traded finance company in the United States.  Since that time, CitiFinancial has crossed international boarders, with acquisitions in Mexico and Latin America.
