June 21 (Reuters) - U.S. bank regulators said four major
banks had shortcomings in their "living wills" - or plans that
outline how they could be safely wound down if they went
bankrupt or came under pressure.
    The four lenders - Citigroup, Bank of America,
Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase - all had
problems related to the plan to unwind their derivatives
portfolios, although some of the specific issues varied, the
regulators said.
