JPMorgan Chase

The banking industry has some work to do to improve its overall reputation, but the good news is that most customers have positive feelings about their own banks. Here are 10 banks that made big strides.

Some large banks, including Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase, will increase dividends and stock repurchases by double digits.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren blasted Jamie Dimon for reviving a policy that pushes JPMorgan Chase's credit card customers into arbitration to resolve disputes instead of the courts.

CEO David Solomon said that Goldman is “absolutely’’ looking at digital currencies and conducting “extensive research’’ on tokenization.

The results clear the way for bigger dividends and stock buybacks at big banks; State Street agreed to pay $88 million to settle claims it overcharged clients.

In a year where most of the 18 institutions taking the second round of the Federal Reserve's stress tests showed improvements over last year, JPMorgan Chase and Capital One were both forced to adjust their capital plans in order to meet the central bank's minimum thresholds.

Several large asset managers plan to meet directly with corporate clients to make loans; 10x Future Technologies promises faster and cheaper banking services.

Once a poster child for corporate wrongdoing, Citi has bolstered its reputation by taking bold stands on polarizing social issues, such as climate change and gun control, and declaring its commitment to move more women and minorities into managerial roles. Here's how it aims to do even better.

The decision follows similar moves by rivals JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. is seeing interest from clients in the U.S., Europe and Japan on the potential for its prototype digital coin to speed up trading of securities such as bonds.

"We're going right at Bank of America, folks, in Charlotte, their hometown," JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said to cheers and laughter at a branch opening in midtown Manhattan. "We've been waiting a long time to start the expansion of Chase retail."

A new set of tougher scenarios did little to keep large banks from passing the most recent stress tests mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act.

A customer who sued Chase over credit card interest charges is now asking a judge to order the bank to stop notifying cardholders about its plan to reinstate arbitration.

Rep. Katie Porter is butting heads with Jamie Dimon again. The Democrat from California claims JPMorgan Chase’s new policy of making credit card customers use arbitration instead of the courts to resolve payment disputes violates her state’s laws.

The Goldman Sachs unit that offers savings accounts and makes personal loans says it will cover certain expenses for its customers who elect arbitration.

The head of the venture capital firm Nyca Partners recommends that banks find firms that are big players in narrow markets and wouldn't strain tangible common equity.

CEO Greg Carmichael said Wednesday that online-only banks "aren't relationship-based" and that Fifth Third would stick to its plan of attracting new depositors by selectively expanding into new markets.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. said it won’t shut the accounts of credit-card customers who reject a new policy of using arbitration instead of the courts to resolve payment disputes.

The digital bank is a whole new line of business for Goldman, meaning there's no risk that it is cannibalizing from the main institution, said Omer Ismail, the head of the bank's U.S. consumer business.

A trio of big deals in the payments and financial tech area and continued bank and venture capital interest in fintech investments are creating expectations for a banner year.
