long article 17 min

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan Chase, testified under oath in May 2023 regarding the bank's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Dimon claimed he was unaware of Epstein until 2019, but the "Epstein files" contain numerous documents related to Dimon and the bank. JP Morgan Chase was Epstein's bank for 15 years, including eight while Dimon was CEO, and flagged thousands of suspicious transactions totaling $1.1 billion. A former executive contradicted Dimon's testimony, claiming they communicated about Epstein years earlier. Documents also suggest a current executive was aware of Epstein's status as a sex offender. An email from 2010 references a potential meeting between Epstein, Dimon, and others.
