I have gotten disturbed at some of the Democrats' anti-business behavior, the sentiment, the attacks on work ethic and successful people. I think it's very counter-productive.

One of the issues with some of these lenders is going to be, where will their provider of credit be when there's a crisis? That's why some of these smarter services, to support their operations, are courting more permanent capital. They want a source of longer-term funding that can survive a crisis.

Most CEOs are patriotic and most CEOs can see the problems in front of them, and they want to do something about it. We don't always agree about the ways and means, but the objective? We're totally together.
Jamie Dimon
We're going to do the right thing for the company and our customers, all things considered.
Jamie Dimon
Good regulation should be conducive to business and to customer protection.

I advise other companies' CEOs, don't fall into the trap where you go, 'Where's the growth? Where's the growth?' Where's the growth?' They feel a tremendous pressure to grow. Well, sometimes you can't grow. Sometimes you don't want to grow. In certain businesses, growth means you either take on bad clients, excess risk, or too much leverage.

I think the free-enterprise system has been great for society. That doesn't mean it's completely perfect. And also, when people say capitalism, I'm not really sure what they mean.
Jamie Dimon
Don't do anything stupd. And don't waste money. Let everybody else waste money and do stupid things then we'll buy them.

I think the Republicans have really thoughtful financial policies, and I'm more in the middle on taxation.
Jamie Dimon
If I ran the whole place like it was my way or the highway, we would not be as good a company. I'm going to have mistakes - they'll be made on my watch and will embarrass me. But I'll also make sure the company learns from them so it can become a better company.
Jamie Dimon
Well, if you were the American public, you saw a catastrophe. In general, you would say, The biggest institutions of America - Washington, broadly, and Wall Street, broadly - they're to blame. And, broadly, they're right.
Jamie Dimon
We take smaller companies and middle-sized companies, all around the world, and we do currency exchange for them we raise bonds and equities for them and we do inventory finance, trade finance, and custody of assets.

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.
Jamie Dimon
It's great that people get together and collaborate, talk about the facts and the analysis, all in the interest of having a great financial system.
Jamie Dimon
The question is how do you do it [more consumer protection] so that it actually works that way? And that takes analysis, and sometimes collaboration between government and business, to understand how that works.
Jamie Dimon
You have your own culture and your own ways of doing things. I hope Japan continues on this path.

My father and grandfather were stockbrokers, and they would actually take stock certificates from a vault, give it to a runner, and send it to another vault. Then somebody said, Let's digitize it and have one vault. Now the DTCC clears and settles almost everything, and the cost of doing a trade is a tenth of what it was before.

The yen is trading where it's trading because people are guessing about people's future interest rates, dollar and yen and about the future growth potential of the economies. And, if this policy works, then the yen will probably strengthen.
