I don't like the term universal bank. The Chinese government legitimately wants to have a very strong economy. When they talk about SOE reform, they know that's part of it.

If you were a corporation needing financial services, and I can give you something better, faster, and cheaper across 12 products as opposed to eight, that's business. I'm doing it because I'm serving you I'm not doing it because I want to be universal.

On Wall Street, there is no Wall Street there are individuals.

If the government wants to do social policy, it should not be done in a quasi-public company. If you have a mortgage guarantee company which is done by the U.S. government, it should be guaranteed by the originators, i.e., the shareholder.

Capping the size of American banks won't eliminate the needs of big businesses it will force them to turn to foreign banks that won't face the same restrictions.
Jamie Dimon
Dodd-Frank and independent actions of banks go a long way in terms of progress on capital, liquidity, transparency, living wills (plans for winding down a bank in the event of a collapse) and resolutions.
Jamie Dimon
The transaction reflects our disciplined strategy of investing capital in core businesses where we can leverage scale and expertise for competitive advantage. In addition to being a great strategic fit, the deal is compelling financially.
Jamie Dimon
You've seen certain credit type products that are going to be in nonbanks, like sophisticated CLO [collateralized loan obligation] tranches and stuff where the capital charge is so high that a bank simply will not own it. Someone will buy it, hedge it, trade it. But it won't typically be a bank.
Jamie Dimon
I completely agree with the concept that American citizens shouldn't expect that a failure of a bank would cost them money, or that it would hurt the economy.
Jamie Dimon
There are parts [in Dodd-Frank] that I don't agree with. But, in total, it is what it is.
Jamie Dimon
I hate the word universal, because I don't know exactly what it means. The question is, does it work for the client? Travelers was a diversified, financial conglomerate that did very well. The businesses had nothing to do with each other.
Jamie Dimon
We represent companies from around the world who say, I want to look at Japanese companies. I want to invest in Japan.
Jamie Dimon
