  • JPMS CWM Trading Away Disclosure
    Important Information about Portfolio Managers Trading Away in J.P. Morgan Securities LLC ("JPMS") Wrap Fee Investment Advisory Programs JPMS offers certain wrap-fee investment advisory programs that provide discretionary portfolio management of client assets by affiliated or unaffiliated Portfolio Managers (collectively referred to as “Wrap Fee Programs”). In the Chase Investments division of JPMS, the following Wrap Fee Programs are offered: Chase Strategic Portfolio (“CSP”) Program, J.P. Morgan Core Advisory Portfolio (“JPMCAP”) Program, the Fixed Income Advisory Program, and the Advisory Program. In the J.P. Morgan Securities division of JPMS, the following Wrap Fee Programs are offered: the Strategic Investment Services (“STRATIS”) Program; Investment Counseling Service (“ICS”) Program; Unified Managed Account (“UMA”) Program; Customized Bond Solutions (“C-BoS”) Program; and JPMCAP Program This document provides information to clients, who are participating, or are considering participating, in a Wrap Fee Program, about Portfolio Managers’ placement of client trade orders for execution by broker- dealers other than JPMS. This practice is frequently referred to as “trading away.” The extent to which a Portfolio Manager chooses to trade away from JPMS can affect your total cost of investing in a Wrap Fee Program. When a Portfolio Manager places trades with JPMS for execution in a Wrap Fee Program, your account does not incur any additional costs because trade execution by JPMS is covered by the wrap fee you pay to JPMS. However, when a Portfolio Manager chooses to trade away from JPMS, execution by a broker-dealer other than JPMS is not covered by the wrap fee you pay to JPMS and your account therefore may incur a commission or other additional cost.

  • Wall Street Money in Washington Report Here
    2017-18 Election April 2019 Cycle Wall Street Money in Washington 2017-2018 Campaign and Lobby Spending by the Financial Sector In the 2017–18 election cycle, Wall Street banks and financial interests reported spending almost $2 billion to influence decision-making in Washington.1 That total – of officially reported expenditures on campaign contributions and lobbying – works out to more than $2.5 million per day. A total of 443 financial sector companies and trade associations spent at least $500,000 each during this period.2 Since 2008, financial industry spending has increased to levels even higher than they were before the financial crisis, and the spending in this cycle was the highest yet for a non-presidential year. This continued high level of spending reflects the ongoing battle to reshape the financial system and the industry’s persistent efforts to repeal or win exemptions from parts of the Dodd-Frank financial reform law, to weaken implementing regulations, to further deregulate, and to forestall proposals for accountability and change. Additional Highlights Campaign Contributions. Individuals and entities associated with the financial sector reported making $921,790,861 in contributions to federal candidates for office during this election cycle (2017-18 for House candidates and 2013-2018 for Senate candidates) through December 31, 2018 (as reported by February 12, 2019).3 The financial sector’s contributions were significantly greater than those of any other specific business sector identified in the Center for Responsive Politics data. Of the $519,619,263 in party-coded contributions by individuals and PACs associated with finance, 53% went to Republicans and 47% went to Democrats.

  • BPI Testimony
    “The Legacy of George Floyd: An Examination of Financial Services Industry Commitments to Economic and Racial Justice” Testimony of Fabrice Emmanuel Coles, Vice President, Bank Policy Institute Before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services, Subcommittee on Diversity and Inclusion June 29, 2021 Chairwoman Beatty, Ranking Member Wagner, Chairwoman Waters, Ranking Member McHenry and Honorable Members of the Subcommittee, thanks so much for having me here today. I’m honored to appear before you. My name is Fabrice Coles and I appreciate the invitation to discuss the efforts of the banking industry to address racial inequality. I am a Vice President of Government Affairs at the Bank Policy Institute, a nonpartisan public policy, research and advocacy group representing the nation’s leading banks. BPI members include universal banks, regional banks and the major foreign banks doing business in the United States. Collectively, they employ nearly 2 million Americans, make 68 percent of all loans and nearly half of the nation’s small business loans and serve as an engine for financial innovation and economic growth. Madame Chair and esteemed Members of this Committee, I have worked with these financial institutions since 2019. I am here today to report that the nation’s banks are rising up to meet the moment, helping reduce racial inequity by leveraging business models, networks and resources to better serve Black communities. Banks are actively engaged across the country in efforts to bring change – especially in the wake of the deadly pandemic and global awakening brought about by the murder of George Floyd.
