JP Morgan Chase & Co. Fair Lending Statement
JP Morgan Chase & Co. (JP Morgan Chase) is committed to treating all individuals fairly and equitably in the conduct of its lending businesses in all jurisdictions where it conducts business. This commitment is part of our fundamental mission of providing quality financial services to existing and prospective customers in accordance with all applicable laws. In the United States, this principle is embodied in fair lending laws such as the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act. These laws require the equitable treatment of all credit applicants, without regard to race, sex, sexual orientation, color, national origin, religion, age, marital status, disability or other prohibited basis. Denying any person equal access to basic economic opportunities, such as home ownership or credit, is morally repugnant, has no place in our company and will not be tolerated. Only through the efforts of all of us at JP Morgan Chase can we ensure that every applicant for credit receives fair and equitable treatment and that we have helped each member of the communities JP Morgan Chase serves reach his or her fullest potential.
