Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, has reaffirmed his commitment to the bank amid rumors of his potential involvement in the U.S. government. According to a source, Dimon has no plans to join Donald Trump's administration, despite widespread speculation surrounding a possible Treasury secretary role.

Having led JPMorgan for nearly two decades, Dimon has reiterated his minimal interest in stepping into a government position. The bank has named four possible successors for the veteran banker, who remains a pivotal figure in corporate America.

Dimon upheld his stance of non-endorsement during the recent election, yet actively engaged in discussions on economic policies. Meanwhile, media outlets noted his wife's campaign efforts for Kamala Harris, affirming Dimon's personal distance from direct political involvement.
