Part of company's branch expansion, the
commitment includes 25 new branches, over 150 new jobs by 2030;
greater access to consumer, business, and community banking for
customers across the state; renewed commitment to support economic
growth and prosperity
JPMorganChase has announced plans to expand access to consumer,
business and community banking services for customers across Iowa.
The expansion, which includes 25 new branches and over 150 new jobs
by 2030, is part of the firm’s broader goal to serve 50% of the
population in each of the 48 contiguous states within an accessible
drive time.
The investment builds on more than 39 years of support for
clients and communities across the state, where JPMorganChase
serves as the bank of choice for around 20,000 Iowa-based
businesses, including small, midsize and large corporate clients in
critical industries like transportation, education, food and
agribusiness, real estate, retail and manufacturing and more than
400,000 consumer customers. It will also include expanded
partnership with local organizations to strengthen communities and
support economic growth.
“From promoting community development to helping small
businesses and teaching financial management skills and tools, we
strive to extend the full force of the firm to all of the
communities we serve,” said Jamie Dimon, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, JPMorganChase. “We are eager to show up in
Iowa as listeners and partners, doubling down on our commitment to
serve Iowans where they live and work so, together, we can solve
big challenges and make dreams happen.”
Dimon made the announcement at the ribbon cutting ceremony for
JPMorganChase’s newest branch in Des Moines, at Ingersoll and 31st,
the sixth to open in the metro area in the past three years. The
commitment combines work across the firm to bring customized
services, expertise and partnership to Iowa, including:
- Expanding the company’s branches from eight to more than 30
across the state by 2030 including new branches in Des Moines,
Waterloo, Cedar Rapids, Sioux City, Iowa City and Ames;
- Creating over 150 new jobs including bank branch employees and
new specialist professionals – such as commercial banking and
business banking; and
- Continuing to engage with local community, business and civic
leaders to identify areas for opportunity and collaboration to
support economic growth.
“We are eager to listen, learn and support communities across
the state of Iowa,” said Majda Hadzic, Market Director,
Iowa/Nebraska, JPMorganChase. “We opened our first brick and
mortar location three years ago and are growing with the community.
Having supported small businesses, critical industries and vital
institutions, along with consumers since 1985, we are committed to
deepening our understanding of the needs and aspirations of Iowans
and how we can continue to tailor services and relationships with
members of the community for the long term.”
"We are thrilled JPMorganChase invested in our community,”
said Des Moines Mayor Connie Boesen. “Financial services are
critical to our community – from helping people buy homes and build
wealth to supporting small business growth and much more.”
“JPMorganChase’s steadfast partnership empowers The Directors
Council to unveil our third One Economy Report, spotlighting
crucial steps toward economic equality. We align with partners who
are committed to dismantling barriers and truly grasp the profound
journey we embark on together,” said Jerrica Marshall, Executive
Director, The Directors Council.
"The support of JPMorganChase helps ensure that the Greater Des
Moines Partnership can serve the region in cultivating Greater Des
Moines as a top place for businesses to locate, grow and expand and
people to live and grow their careers. Our region’s growth is due
in large part to the collaboration and leadership of companies
including JPMorganChase," said Tiffany Tauscheck, President and
CEO, Greater Des Moines Partnership.
Bolstering our commitment to the community
In addition to new business commitments, the firm will listen,
learn and work alongside community leaders, the public and private
sectors and local non-profit organizations to advance inclusive
economic growth and opportunity, including building on work the
firm is doing across the country to support workforce development
and small business opportunities.
JPMorganChase has long supported non-profits across the state,
including several small business development organizations such as
The Iowa Center for Economic Success, the Evelyn K. Davis Center,
