Brevan Howard Capital Management 13F: Cuts C Stake by $20M

Brevan Howard Trims Exposure to Citigroup

Brevan Howard Capital Management reduced its investment in Citigroup Inc. NYSE:C by 50.9% during the period ended May 15, 2026, according to a Form 13F filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The fund sold 145,629 shares of the banking giant, lowering its holdings from 285,999 shares down to 140,370 shares. Because 13F filings look backward, this snapshot reflects holdings as of that reporting date and may not represent the fund's current position today.

Inside the Position Reduction

The sizeable reduction left the firm with a remaining stake valued at approximately $19.6 million based on the filing data. This move follows a similar playbook for the asset manager, which also trimmed its holdings in other major financial service names during the same reporting window. The fund's remaining position in the bank represents a much smaller slice of its overall portfolio.

Citigroup Stock Valuation and Trading

The company carries a price-to-earnings ratio of 12.0 and a forward P/E ratio of 9.4. Because 13F data is historical, investors should note that market prices have shifted since this filing period closed.

What to Watch at Citigroup Inc.

Investors tracking Brevan Howard's portfolio adjustments should look ahead to subsequent regulatory filings to see whether the manager continues to pare back its banking sector exposure.

As always, 13F disclosures offer only a retroactive look at institutional activity and do not signal an active buy or sell recommendation.
