Famous Jamie Dimon Quotes

“The best way to look at any business is from the standpoint of the clients. So there are these certain basic things that aren't going to change. Companies are going to have needs for equity, debt, advice, FX, and derivatives. Individuals are going to have needs for auto loans, mortgages, something that looks like a deposit account, and the ability to send money to people. Those things aren't going to change.”

That's another thing people don't quite get.”

We're a little patriotic that way. We said, "Yes, sir!"”
