By GlobalDataAt a group level, JPMorgan registered a net income of $4.7bn in Q2 2020, a 51% slump from $9.7bn in the prior year as it set aside $10.5 in credit loan provisions.
JPMorgan chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon said: “We ended the quarter with massive lossabsorbing capacity – over $34 billion of credit reserves and total liquidity resources of $1.5 trillion, on top of $191 billion of CET1 capital, with significant earnings power that would allow us to absorb even more credit reserves if needed.
“This is why we can continue to serve all of our stakeholders and to pay our dividend – unless the economic situation deteriorates materially and significantly.”
