JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon Statement:
Statement 1: “I regret and should not have made that comment. I was trying to emphasize the strength and longevity of our company.”
Statement 2: “It’s never right to joke about or denigrate any group of people, whether it’s a country, its leadership, or any part of a society and culture. Speaking in that way can take away from constructive and thoughtful dialogue in society, which is needed now more than ever.”
