LONDON, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Kristine Braden, CEO of Citigroup's two main operations in continental Europe, is leaving the firm after 25 years as part of a wider organisational change announced by the U.S. bank earlier this week, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters.
Braden was CEO of Citibank Europe and was also leading Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG unit.
Braden couldn't immediately be reached for comment. A spokesperson for Citi declined to comment.
The Wall Street firm this week announced a broad reorganization including stripping out a layer of management and cutting jobs to give CEO Jane Fraser more direct control as she seeks to simplify the structure and give a boost to the stock.
