Catenaa, Friday, January 09, 2026-JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon reportedly earned $770 million in 2025, fueled by rising stock prices, mergers and acquisitions activity, and regulatory changes under the Trump administration.
The New York Times cited company disclosures indicating that Dimon’s total compensation combined base salary, bonuses, stock options, and dividends.
JPMorgan’s shares rose 34% over the past year, significantly boosting his earnings.
If confirmed, the payout would place Dimon’s net worth near that of top hedge fund managers in New York and leading tech founders in Silicon Valley.
In 2024, his total compensation was reported at $39 million, including a $1.5 million base salary, a $5 million cash bonus, and $32.5 million in performance-based stock awards.
Other major bank executives also saw gains. Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser and Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon reportedly earned up to $100 million in 2025, benefiting from stock increases of 65% and 53% respectively.
JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and Citi declined to comment on the figures, according to the report.
Dimon has historically opposed stricter regulations under Basel III, which would require banks to maintain higher capital reserves.
Regulatory rollbacks under the Trump administration have allowed major banks greater flexibility to deploy capital for lending, trading, and acquisitions, contributing to strong performance in financial markets.
JPMorgan plans to release full-year financial results and official executive compensation details on January 13. Analysts say the combination of market gains and lighter regulatory oversight has created a favorable environment for Wall Street executives’ earnings.
