Top Banks' Chiefs to Testify in Inquiry

In its first public hearing, the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission is to question several of the industry's top executives next month on their roles during the market turmoil, it said on Wednesday.

The bipartisan congressional panel is to hear testimony from Jamie Dimon, the chairman and chief executive of JPMorgan Chase & Co.; Lloyd Blankfein, the chairman and chief executive of Goldman Sachs & Co.; and John Mack, the chairman of Morgan Stanley. The panel said it also expects testimony from Brian Moynihan, who will become Bank of America Corp.'s chief executive on Jan. 1, but that he had not yet confirmed his appearance.

The first hearing is set for Jan. 13 and 14.
