That's probably good, all things being equal, for emerging markets, not bad, even though it may not be great for all their currencies.

More quotes by Jamie Dimon
You have your own culture and your own ways of doing things. I hope Japan continues on this path.
Jamie Dimon
I haven't studied it deeply, but the American banks started the crisis with far more capital and what I would call good liquidity. The riskiest funding is unsecured wholesale funding. It's the most fickle. Not repo, which the government focused on, too. Unsecured. JPMorgan Chase had almost none of that - virtually zero.
Jamie Dimon
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.
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
My operating assumption is we will always have very tough competition. And even with some European banks struggling right now, some of them can reemerge - and maybe even stronger.
Jamie Dimon
No one can forecast the economy with certainty.
Jamie Dimon
Our investment bank looks like it does because its customers like our expansive network and want to do equity, debt, M&A, custody, move money, deposit money, et cetera.
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
Economies of scale are a good thing. If we didn't have them, we'd still be living in tents and eating buffalo.
Jamie Dimon
If you have the choice, it's far better to say, That person has the job, and they really don't need that much of my oversight. Maybe they don't need any of it.
Jamie Dimon
Any good job is a good job. This whole concept of a dead-end job? It's not true. I've heard it my whole life. Jobs lead to dignity. If you're good at the first, then you can get the second. Jobs lead to household formation. Jobs are a better solution for society.
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
We did not anticipate the political fallout from it. We definitely didn't need it and we paid it back the first day we were allowed to.
Jamie Dimon
We, Americans, have the best country on the planet. We have schools, universities, food, water, energy, peaceful neighbors, low corruption, you name it, deepest and widest capital markets. That doesn't mean we shouldn't identify problems. We don't have a divine right to success.
Jamie Dimon
I don't mind paying higher taxes, because I've done quite well and I'm blessed to live in this country.
Jamie Dimon
I'm a really big believer - this is not a statement about President [Barack] Obama, but whoever is president - that good policy is really important.
Jamie Dimon
Companies that build scale for the benefit of their customers and shareholders more often succeed over time.
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 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
The third arrow (of structural reform) is critically important. Japan has some of the best companies in the world, and if you look at their technology, their capability, it's extraordinary.
