JPMorgan Chase is the result of the combination of several large U.S. banking companies that merged since 1996, combining Chase Manhattan Bank, J.P. Morgan & Co., and Bank One, as well as asset assumptions of Bear Stearns, Washington Mutual, and First Republic. Predecessors included additional historic, major banking firms, among which are Chemical Bank, Manufacturers Hanover, First Chicago Bank, National Bank of Detroit, Texas Commerce Bank, Providian Financial and Great Western Bank. The company's oldest predecessor institution, The Bank of the Manhattan Company, was the third-oldest banking corporation in the United States, and the 31st-oldest bank in the world, having been established on September 1, 1799, by Aaron Burr.{{Cite web |title=History of Our Firm |url=https://www.jpmorganchase.com/about/our-history |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220523040928/https://www.jpmorganchase.com/about/our-history |archive-date=May 23, 2022 |access-date=May 23, 2022 |website=JPMorgan Chase |language=en}}

According to page 115 of An Empire of Wealth by John Steele Gordon, the origin of this strand of JPMorgan Chase's history runs as follows:

At the turn of the nineteenth century, obtaining a bank charter required an act of the state legislature. This, of course, injected a powerful element of politics into the process and invited what today would be called corruption but then was regarded as business as usual. Hamilton's political enemy—and eventual murderer—Aaron Burr was able to create a bank by sneaking a clause into a charter for a company called The Manhattan Company to provide clean water to New York City. The innocuous-looking clause allowed the company to invest surplus capital in any lawful enterprise. Within six months of the company's creation, and long before it had laid a single section of water pipe, the company opened a bank, the Bank of the Manhattan Company. Still in existence, it is today JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the United States.{{Cite book |last=Gordon |first=John Steele |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/56668529 |title=An Empire of Wealth: The Epic History of American Economic Power |publisher=HarperCollins |year=2004 |isbn=0-06-009362-5 |edition=1st |location=New York |page=115 |oclc=56668529 |author-link=John Steele Gordon}}

Led by David Rockefeller during the 1970s and 1980s, Chase Manhattan emerged as one of the largest and most prestigious banks, with leadership positions in syndicated lending, treasury and securities services, credit cards, mortgages, and retail financial services. Weakened by the real estate collapse in the early 1990s, it was acquired by Chemical Bank in 1996, retaining the Chase name. Before its merger with J.P. Morgan & Co., the new Chase expanded the investment and asset management groups through two acquisitions. In 1999, it acquired San Francisco–based Hambrecht & Quist for $1.35 billion.{{Cite news |last1=Kahn |first1=Joseph |last2=McGeehan |first2=Patrick |date=September 29, 1999 |title=Chase Agrees to Acquire Hambrecht & Quist |language=en-US |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/09/29/business/chase-agrees-to-acquire-hambrecht-quist.html |url-status=live |access-date=October 30, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200911124744/https://www.nytimes.com/1999/09/29/business/chase-agrees-to-acquire-hambrecht-quist.html |archive-date=September 11, 2020 |issn=0362-4331}} In April 2000, UK-based Robert Fleming & Co. was purchased by the new Chase Manhattan Bank for $7.7 billion.{{Cite news |last=Journal |first=Michael R.

{{Main|Chemical Bank}}

The New York Chemical Manufacturing Company was founded in 1823 as a maker of various chemicals. In 1824, the company amended its charter to perform banking activities and created the Chemical Bank of New York. After 1851, the bank was separated from its parent and grew organically and through a series of mergers, most notably with Corn Exchange Bank in 1954, Texas Commerce Bank (a large bank in Texas) in 1986, and Manufacturer's Hanover Trust Company in 1991 (the first major bank merger "among equals"). In the 1980s and early 1990s, Chemical emerged as one of the leaders in the financing of leveraged buyout transactions. In 1984, Chemical launched Chemical Venture Partners to invest in private equity transactions alongside various financial sponsors. By the late 1980s, Chemical developed its reputation for financing buyouts, building a syndicated leveraged finance business and related advisory businesses under the auspices of the pioneering investment banker, Jimmy Lee.[http://www.businessweek.com/archives/1997/b3522103.arc.htm Jimmy Lee's Global Chase] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110628221303/http://www.businessweek.com/archives/1997/b3522103.arc.htm |date=June 28, 2011 }}.

In August 1914, Henry P. Davison, a Morgan partner, made a deal with the Bank of England to make J.P. Morgan & Co. the monopoly underwriter of war bonds for the UK and France. The Bank of England became a "fiscal agent" of J.P. Morgan & Co., and vice versa.{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0M93iTZW6uQC&q=JP+morgan+deal+with+the+Bank+of+England+monopoly+underwriter+of+war+bonds+for+the+UK+and+France&pg=PA18 |title=Wall Street, Banks, and American Foreign Policy |date=March 11, 2024 |publisher=Ludwig von Mises Institute |isbn=978-1-61016-308-8 |language=en |access-date=October 19, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210208022027/https://books.google.com/books?id=0M93iTZW6uQC&q=JP+morgan+deal+with+the+Bank+of+England+monopoly+underwriter+of+war+bonds+for+the+UK+and+France&pg=PA18 |archive-date=February 8, 2021 |url-status=live}} The company also invested in the suppliers of war equipment to Britain and France. The company profited from the financing and purchasing activities of the two European governments. Since the U.S. federal government withdrew from world affairs under successive isolationist Republican administrations in the 1920s, J.P. Morgan & Co. continued playing a major role in global affairs since most European countries still owed war debts.{{Cite book |last=Steiner |first=Zara |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/86068902 |title=The lights that failed : European international history, 1919–1933 |date=2005 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-151881-2 |location=Oxford |oclc=86068902 |access-date=October 9, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211006194701/https://www.worldcat.org/title/lights-that-failed-european-international-history-1919-1933/oclc/86068902 |archive-date=October 6, 2021 |url-status=live}}

File:Wamu.svg

On September 25, 2008, JPMorgan Chase bought most of the banking operations of Washington Mutual from the receivership of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. That night, the Office of Thrift Supervision, in what was by far the largest bank failure in American history, had seized Washington Mutual Bank and placed it into receivership. The FDIC sold the bank's assets, secured debt obligations, and deposits to JPMorgan Chase & Co for $1.836 billion, which re-opened the bank the following day.

However, Chase did not purchase any mortgages in the FDIC receivership as the loans had already been sold off into Washington Mutual-branded mortgage-backed securities long before the receivership happened on September 25, 2008. If Chase wanted ownership of any Washington Mutual mortgages, they had to purchase them from the FDIC by way of a Receiver's Deed or Bill of Sale. This could not occur, as there were no mortgages on Washington Mutual Bank's books at time of receivership. Any recorded Assignments of Mortgage claiming that Chase was "successor in interest" and that the transfer occurred "by operation of law," would be incorrect. The FDIC was "successor in interest" to Washington Mutual Bank. Chase's purchase of the bank from the FDIC was for Washington Mutual Bank only and it occurred by a Purchase & Assumption Agreement[https://www.fdic.gov/foia/files/washington_mutual_p_and_a.pdf FDIC website - Purchase & Assumption Agreement] and not "by operation of law" from the receivership.

As a result of the takeover, Washington Mutual shareholders lost all their equity.Ellis, David.

In March 2025, Charlie Javice, founder of the college financial aid startup ”Frank”, was convicted on all counts of fraud related to JPMorgan Chase’s $175 million acquisition of her company. Alongside Frank’s chief growth officer Olivier Amar, she was found guilty of securities fraud, wire fraud, bank fraud, and conspiracy. The fraud centered on Javice and Amar falsely representing Frank’s user base to JPMorgan. Prosecutors revealed that the company claimed to have 4.25 million users, when in reality, it had only about 300,000 to deceive the bank. Amar had purchased fake customer lists from third parties to create the illusion of a much larger client base. JPMorgan only realized the fraud when it attempted to contact Frank’s customers and received very few responses than expected. Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan’s CEO, has since called the Frank acquisition a “huge mistake,” although the bank has remained silent in this regard. However, Javice’s sentencing is scheduled for August 26, while Amar will be sentenced on July 23.{{Cite news |date=March 29, 2025 |title=Charlie Javice guilty of defrauding JPMorgan into buying college aid startup |url=https://www.reuters.com/legal/charlie-javice-founder-startup-bought-by-jpmorgan-found-guilty-fraud-trial-2025-03-28/}}

FERC investigators determined that JPMVEC engaged in 12 manipulative bidding strategies designed to make profits from power plants that were usually out of the money in the marketplace. In each of them, the company made bids designed to create artificial conditions that forced California and Midcontinent Independent System Operators (ISOs) to pay JPMVEC outside the market at premium rates. FERC investigators further determined that JPMVEC knew that the California ISO and Midcontinent ISO received no benefit from making inflated payments to the company, thereby defrauding the ISOs by obtaining payments for benefits that the company did not deliver beyond the routine provision of energy. FERC investigators also determined that JPMVEC's bids displaced other generation and altered day ahead and real-time prices from the prices that would have resulted had the company not submitted the bids. Under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, Congress directed FERC to detect, prevent, and appropriately sanction the gaming of energy markets. According to FERC, the Commission approved the settlement as in the public interest.

The reported impetus for the investigation was a letter from Massachusetts Senators Elizabeth Warren and Edward Markey, in which they asked FERC why no action was taken against people who impeded the FERC investigation. At the time of the FBI investigation, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations was also looking into whether JPMorgan Chase employees impeded the FERC investigation. Reuters reported that JPMorgan Chase was facing over a dozen investigations at the time.

Bernie Madoff opened a business account at Chemical Bank in 1986 and maintained it until 2008, long after Chemical acquired Chase.{{Undue weight inline|date=January 2023}} In 2010, Irving Picard, the SIPC receiver appointed to liquidate Madoff's company, alleged that JPMorgan Chase failed to prevent Madoff from defrauding his customers. According to the suit, Chase "knew or should have known" that Madoff's wealth management business was a fraud. However, Chase did not report its concerns to regulators or law enforcement until October 2008, when it notified the UK Serious Organised Crime Agency. Picard argued that even after Morgan's investment bankers reported its concerns about Madoff's performance to UK officials, Chase's retail banking division did not put any restrictions on Madoff's banking activities until his arrest two months later.{{Cite web |title=Madoff trustee suit against JPMorgan Chase |url=http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/020311madoffjpm.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201127001941/http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/020311madoffjpm.pdf |archive-date=November 27, 2020 |access-date=November 27, 2013}} The receiver's suit against JPMorgan Chase was dismissed by the Court for failing to set forth any legally cognizable claim for damages.{{Cite news |last=Bob Van Voris |title=JPMorgan Wins Dismissal of $19 Billion in Madoff Trustee Claims |work=Bloomberg |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-01/jpmorgan-ubs-win-dismissal-of-madoff-trustee-picard-s-common-law-claims.html |url-status=live |access-date=March 7, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129023645/http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-01/jpmorgan-ubs-win-dismissal-of-madoff-trustee-picard-s-common-law-claims.html |archive-date=November 29, 2014}} In the fall of 2013, JPMorgan Chase began talks with prosecutors and regulators regarding compliance with anti-money-laundering and know-your-customer banking regulations in connection with Madoff.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

The derivatives team at JPMorgan, led by Blythe Masters, was a pioneer in the invention of credit derivatives such as the credit default swap. The first CDS was created to allow Exxon to borrow money from JPMorgan while JPMorgan transferred the risk to the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development. JPMorgan's team later created the 'BISTRO', a bundle of credit default swaps that was the progenitor of the Synthetic CDO.Fool's Gold, by Gillian Tett, Free Press, 2009.Structured Finance and Collateralized Debt Obligations 2nd ed, Janet Tavakoli, 2008, Wiley As of 2013 JPMorgan had the largest credit default swap and credit derivatives portfolio by total notional amount of any US bank.{{Cite web |title=Chase Locations and Reviews |url=http://www.knowyourbank.com/jpmorgan-chase/4521/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130525033610/http://www.knowyourbank.com/jpmorgan-chase/4521/ |archive-date=May 25, 2013 |access-date=April 13, 2013 |publisher=Knowyourbank}}{{Cite web |title=OCC's Quarterly Report on Bank Trading and Derivatives Activities Fourth Quarter 2011 |url=http://www.occ.treas.gov/topics/capital-markets/financial-markets/trading/derivatives/dq411.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210126031347/https://www.occ.treas.gov/topics/capital-markets/financial-markets/trading/derivatives/dq411.pdf |archive-date=January 26, 2021 |access-date=August 23, 2012}}

Morgan in such high volume.{{Cite news |last1=Zuckerman |first1=Gregory |last2=Burne |first2=Katy |date=April 6, 2012 |title={{-'}}London Whale' Rattles Debt Market |work=The Wall Street Journal |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303299604577326031119412436 |url-status=live |access-date=August 12, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201125144133/https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303299604577326031119412436 |archive-date=November 25, 2020}}{{Cite news |last=Ahmed |first=Azam |date=May 15, 2012 |title=As One JPMorgan Trader Sold Risky Contracts, Another One Bought Them |work=The New York Times |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/15/as-one-jpmorgan-trader-sold-risky-contracts-another-one-bought-them/ |url-status=live |access-date=May 16, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210126123557/https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/15/as-one-jpmorgan-trader-sold-risky-contracts-another-one-bought-them/ |archive-date=January 26, 2021}} Early reports were denied and minimized by the firm in an attempt to minimize exposure.{{Cite news |last=Eisinger |first=Jesse |date=May 16, 2012 |title=In Scrutiny of JPMorgan Loss, Bigger Questions Left Unanswered |work=The New York Times |agency=ProPublica |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/in-scrutiny-of-jpmorgan-loss-bigger-questions-left-unanswered/ |url-status=live |access-date=May 17, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201103235501/https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/in-scrutiny-of-jpmorgan-loss-bigger-questions-left-unanswered/ |archive-date=November 3, 2020}} Major losses, $2 billion, were reported by the firm in May 2012, in relation to these trades and updated to $4.4 billion on July 13, 2012.{{Cite news |last=Silver-Greenberg |first=Jessica |date=July 13, 2012 |title=JPMorgan Reports Second-Quarter Profit and Will Restate First-Quarter Figures |work=The New York Times |format=Dealbook blog |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/07/13/jpmorgan-reports-second-quarter-profit-of-5-billion-down-9/ |url-status=live |access-date=July 13, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209212002/https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/07/13/jpmorgan-reports-second-quarter-profit-of-5-billion-down-9/ |archive-date=February 9, 2021}} The disclosure, which resulted in headlines in the media, did not disclose the exact nature of the trading involved, which remained in progress as of June 28, 2012, and continued to produce losses which could total as much as $9 billion under worst-case scenarios.{{Cite news |last1=Silver-Greenberg |first1=Jessica |last2=Craig |first2=Susanne |date=June 28, 2012 |title=JPMorgan Trading Loss May Reach $9 Billion |work=The New York Times |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/06/28/jpmorgan-trading-loss-may-reach-9-billion/ |url-status=live |access-date=June 28, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201111201645/https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/06/28/jpmorgan-trading-loss-may-reach-9-billion/ |archive-date=November 11, 2020}}{{Cite news |last1=Schwartz |first1=Nelson D. |last2=Silver-Greenberg |first2=Jessica |date=May 16, 2012 |title=JPMorgan's Trading Loss Is Said to Rise at Least 50% |work=The New York Times |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/jpmorgans-trading-loss-is-said-to-rise-at-least-50/ |url-status=live |access-date=May 17, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210221023644/https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/jpmorgans-trading-loss-is-said-to-rise-at-least-50/ |archive-date=February 21, 2021}} In the end, the trading produced actual losses of only $6 billion.

On September 18, 2013, JPMorgan Chase agreed to pay a total of $920 million in fines and penalties to American and UK regulators for violations related to the trading loss and other incidents. The fine was part of a multiagency and multinational settlement with the Federal Reserve, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States and the Financial Conduct Authority in the UK. The company also admitted breaking American securities law.[https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-09-19/jpmorgan-chase-agrees-to-pay-920-million-for-london-whale-loss.html JPMorgan Pays $920 Million to Settle London Whale Probes] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150110054550/http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-09-19/jpmorgan-chase-agrees-to-pay-920-million-for-london-whale-loss.html |date=January 10, 2015 }}.

Fortune, September 20, 2013.

A report by the SEC was critical of the level of oversight from senior management on traders, and the FCA said the incident demonstrated "flaws permeating all levels of the firm: from portfolio level right up to senior management." On the day of the fine, the BBC reported from the New York Stock Exchange that the fines "barely registered" with traders there, the news had been an expected development, and the company had prepared for the financial hit.
