Citigroup Inc. has announced that it will lay off 17,000 workers as part of a massive restructuring expected to save the company more than $10 billion over the next three years.

Other expense-cutting measures include an increased use of shared services for legal, human resources, risk management and financial operations and the sharing of some back-office functions in international markets.
