JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon on jobs, tariffs and politics

In an exclusive interview with CNN Business, CEO Jamie Dimon tells Poppy Harlow about JPMorgan Chase's $350 million investment in the future of work. He also discusses what he thinks is holding back the US economy and why a comprehensive trade deal is needed.

[@brajeshsingh2391]

I agree. he speaks so well like a common man not somebody who is pretentious and gives an authority. I really like his style. very casual and down to earth and accurate.

[@brajeshsingh2391]

@Negasso Kadir well you could have said that maybe 2-3 years ago. But not anymore. I can separate the grain from the chaff. Almost. Look there was a time I wanted to have a high privilege account in a really big bank like JP Morgan Chase. You know the one that has fancy stuff like unlimited check book high rewards card. The high 'privilege" account as it is called that big customers have but I have experienced so bad customer service that today if my bank keeps my little money safe, does not harass me and allows me to withdraw if when I need it I will be happy, in fact more than happy. In fact I was thinking to switch over to Indian old style PSB but cannot. They are still the best for people with little money like me. So even if like simple and easy way the CEO speaks I do not care as I will not have any account there.

Despite the fact of questions being partially led to a certain direction, Jamie provided proper answers. This man’s mind is well-shielded in various ways. Such brilliance.

[@JoshKaufmanstuff]

After a while, I forgot that this man was a banker. The interviewer kept reminding us that she was politically biased and preferred to turn every issue into a political weapon.

[@sathirabarabongse]

Hello from Thai, Great interview in many topic such as a necessity of education, Would be great if there is a English sub, for non native like me.

[@nightlifeking]

What kills me is being perfectly qualified, sometimes over qualified for a job and being rejected because I didn’t finish my college degree. Makes ZERO sense! How would I sound if I said hey you are everything that I’m looking for and more, but sorry you didn’t get a college degree? I would sound stupid! But it happens every day. It has nothing to do with jobs, it has everything to do with class level and the envy of other who are in tons of debt who feel you should be in debt also.

[@snowblade7669]

I think it actually all deals down to how law suits work and how this country is as a whole. A degree is nothing more then proof on what you worked hard for plus it acts like some sort of insurance for both you and the employer. That degree is going to guarantee you the correct amount of pay you should be receiving. it sucks because I believe knowledge shouldn't have a price tag but in the work field it's sadly necessary.

[@nightlifeking]

Snowblade I know people with degrees who graduated with poor grades how does that make it better for the employer? For the most part college is not hard. You just need the time, money and will to complete it.

[@btw-hl9id]

@@nightlifeking I have a college degree and while I think it's useful and all that, a lot of what I do in my current position and past positions is learned on the job, not in the classroom. Even the stuff I learned in the classroom that is relevant to my job can be learned online for free.

[@BridgeburyRealEstateNorthLakes]

Really agree with Jamie's view on college degrees and not having it as an absolute requirement to secure a position.

[@crazybrain007]

The idiots who keep screaming this is a business interview, not politics should pick up an economics book. Politics and business go hand in hand, policy effects how business are run and businesses dictate how some policies are made. They go hand in hand, always have been, and especially having a president like Trump who was a businessman before becoming a president, these questions are much more important to ask as to figure out what exactly he plans to do with our country. Jamie Dimon is a bright man, he understands that these questions have a place in this interview.

This guy is speaking the truth but you have morons just accusing him of corruption. He’s bank and all the others received bailouts. At least, he’s the only banker taking about jobs and how we need to copy the German and Swiss model.

[@elreytriton]

Every bank is talking about this it is nothing new. His bank is corrupt. They're hurting for people who quit and dont wanna go into banking after they crashed the western worlds economy and gave nonwhites the worst loans. Plus we see only certain last names and ivy league alumni get the top positions. They've been having trouble the last 10 years recruiting ppl look up tech vs finance on here. Goldman Sachs is allowing casual dress now because the brightest minds dont wanna wear a tight ass suit to work everyday and pay expensive dry cleaning every week. Yesterday I literally just went to a seminar where my city has a program to get ppl to take the SIE to get into finance because the finance industry has so many open positions nobody wants to do it. Of course most of them are bank teller and call center jobs. Demeaning jobs that pay 12-15 an hour when you've spent thousands to get a degree isnt worth it.

[@tommy2346]

JPM was actually the biggest bank that didn't need a bailout at that time. Look it up

All the amiable Rhetoric and good intentions proffered in this interview notwithstanding, America has a long way to go on that of social, economic, labor, and legal justice and gratuities. To that end, Dimon could be a lot more forthcoming on the very matters about which Senators Warren (D), Sanders (I), and Braun (R) bear little apparent reservations. Of course, one would have been and lived as a person like Dimon is and does in the first place to think as he does and carries.

[@sjt4225]

@@keshav4203 www.amazon.com/Big-Short-Inside-Doomsday-Machine/dp/0393338827 The most obvious is fraud. Banks created, marketed and approved mortgages to low income individuals who had NO way of repaying their loans. It wasn't accidental. There wasn't a low-level staffer who approved loans without his superior's knowledge. It was deliberate, intentional fraud. Separately, these banks coerced the ratings agency to issue AAA status ratings to collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) which were stuffed with those bad mortgages. Those CDOs were knowingly sold on to other investors with these false AAA ratings. Again, this wasn't an accident. It happened with the full knowledge, direction and approval from guys like Dimon.
