Jonathan Nadler, a Paris-based banker at JPMorgan Chase & Co., has taken a sabbatical from the U.S. firm to help French far right presidential candidate Eric Zemmour in his campaign.
The associate has taken a 6-month leave, but is staying as part of the bank’s workforce, a JPMorgan spokeswoman said by phone. “He is operating in a personal capacity, in which JPMorgan has no involvement,” she said.
