JPMorgan Expands $1.5T Security Initiative to Europe
On Tuesday, JPMorgan announced it is extending its $1.5 trillion, 10-year Security and Resiliency Initiative (SRI) to Europe, building on U.S. momentum and a planned U.K. rollout.
The program targets sectors critical to economic security, including supply chains, defense, energy resilience, advanced manufacturing, frontier technologies, and health care.
“The national and economic security of countries depends on strong, resilient and reliable supply chains, and robust critical industries,” said Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorganChase.
“For too long, the U.S. and Europe have relied on unpredictable sources for things like critical minerals that are essential to collective security and prosperity. Now, it is in our best interest to address these challenges together, because our security, freedom and economic growth depend on it.”
Regional oversight will come from EMEA CEOs Conor Hillery and Matthieu Wiltz, with senior bankers supporting execution across the U.K. and continental Europe. The bank also plans to add Tony Radakin to its advisory council, pending approval.
