JPMorgan Chase & Co. has established a new unit, the “Center for Geopolitics,” to help clients navigate the complexities of global risk. In a statement, CEO Jamie Dimon warned that this is a “hinge point” in his career, underscoring the bank’s focus on geopolitics.
The new center will focus on research related to Russia and Ukraine, the Middle East, and global rearmament. The bank plans to release further reports quarterly, covering topics such as populism and artificial intelligence. Key executives involved with the unit will also participate in events and host client sessions to provide guidance and insights on these critical issues.
This move reflects JPMorgan’s growing recognition of the impact of geopolitics on global markets and economies. As tensions rise worldwide, financial institutions are increasingly seeking expert analysis and advice on how to navigate these complex risks.
