Jan 3 (Reuters) – Kentucky on Tuesday warned 11 major financial companies, including Citigroup Inc (C.N), JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM.N) and BlackRock Inc (BLK.N), of potential divestment over their “boycott” of energy companies.
State government entities must notify the Treasurer of direct or indirect holdings in the companies in the list. They must also write to the firms, asking them to stop the “boycott” failing which, they could be subject to divestment, Kentucky State Treasurer Allison Ball said.
