Trump Consults JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon on Economic Policy Ahead of Second Term

President-elect Trump has engaged in months of private discussions with Jamie Dimon, using the banking leader as an informal adviser on key economic issues.

  • President-elect Donald Trump has been holding secret discussions with JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon for several months, focusing on government spending, tax policy, trade, and banking regulations.
  • Dimon, who has been described as a 'sounding board' for Trump, is not joining the administration despite earlier speculation about a potential Treasury Secretary role.
  • The back-channel conversations reflect Trump's long-standing admiration for Dimon, though their relationship has included moments of tension over political and regulatory disagreements.
  • Dimon has publicly supported some of Trump's policies, such as his stance on NATO and immigration, while remaining critical of certain U.S. banking regulations.
  • Trump's outreach to Dimon and other financial leaders like BlackRock CEO Larry Fink signals his intent to incorporate Wall Street perspectives into his second-term agenda.
