Citigroup is in talks to try and get about $500 million it mistakenly paid a group of hedge funds and investment firms on a loan owed by Revlon.
The cosmetics company controlled by billionaire Ronald Perelman, filed for bankruptcy protection in June.had accidentally used its own money in August 2020 to pay off the company's $894 million loan three years early instead of paying $7.8 million in interest. The bank blamed human error, and some lenders gave the money back to Citi, but others kept roughly $500 million of the accidental payment.

Lawyers for the bank and the lenders said they have been discussing a "consensual resolution" to end Citigroup's August 2020 lawsuit to recoup the mistaken payment, according to a filing made Thursday in Manhattan federal court.While no agreement has been reached, the lawyers said "material terms" of a settlement would provide for the return of Citigroup's money, with the bank transferring interest and amortization payments it began receiving in early 2021.
