JPMorgan Chase will pay approximately $348.2 million in fines to settle allegations laid by two federal banking regulators that it failed to adequately monitor trading and order activity.
The Treasury Department’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) issued a $250 million penalty against the bank Thursday, while the Federal Reserve Board announced a fine of nearly $98.2 million as part of a consent order, both related to JPMorgan’s alleged failure to surveil “billions” of transactions on 30 trading venues.
JPMorgan, which disclosed the impending fines in a regulatory filing in February, said it had “self-identified that certain trading and order data through the CIB (corporate and investment bank) was not feeding into its trade surveillance platforms.” The bank said then that it was in advanced negotiations with a third, unnamed regulator regarding the matter.
