If you went to all those little towns in America, JPMorgan was there in good times and bad times, and, in fact, helped a lot of people through the tough times. And we know that's when they need us the most.

We're going to do the right thing for the company and our customers, all things considered.

Dodd-Frank is 2,000 pages long. It covers thousands of rules, regulations, interpretations and things like that.

You have your own culture and your own ways of doing things. I hope Japan continues on this path.

Japan, Europe, [and] America probably [are] better than last year [2015], not China.

Their [American banks] big issue will be if they want to deal with the biggest companies, which are doing a lot of business overseas. How they do that is a big question. It's almost impossible to build a global investment bank from scratch. If they want to do that, they probably will have to do an acquisition.

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.

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.

I think if we had another set of policies for - not the crisis years, but after that, that we might be growing faster. But we didn't. And some of that was Republicans' [fault], by the way.

We continued to build the business, even in the worst of times. We do business all over America.

I am still a Democrat. The main reason is because I don't like the Republican stance on some social values. Not that I disagree with all of them. I just don't think they have a right to impose it upon other people. I've been public about that.
Jamie Dimon
All our clients know that we're there, we're steady, we do a good job, we earn a fair return for ourselves, which I think is critical.
Jamie Dimon
On Wall Street, there is no Wall Street there are individuals.

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
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.
Jamie Dimon
I think the Republicans have really thoughtful financial policies, and I'm more in the middle on taxation.
Jamie Dimon
We've accommodated the new rules and regulations. We've served our clients and had quite good returns.

Companies are returning a lot of money to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. And a lot of people say that's not a good use of capital. I think that's normal reallocation of capital.
