Citigroup (NYSE:C) has energy-loan exposure of less than 4% of total loans, and is, in our view, positioned to benefit from an eventual increase in interest rates. At its current valuation (as of March 31) of just 60% of book value and 7.7x earnings on depressed net interest margins, we believe the stock offers a compelling investment opportunity.
