Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO, said: “We see good global economic growth, particularly in the US, where consumer and business sentiment is high. Because of this broad growth and the strong underlying performance across each of our businesses, the company delivered record results this quarter.

“We also want to acknowledge that global competition is getting stronger. The healthy US consumer drove double digit growth in client investment assets, card sales and merchant processing volumes.

Dimon added: “Our strong, diversified franchise generates significant capital to invest in technology, bankers, products and markets. This quarter alone we announced new card products, the national rollout of our all-mobile bank, Finn, new branches in the Washington DC area, and plans for a more significant investment in China.”
