President Joe Biden’s top economic adviser Lael Brainard met with JPMorgan Chase & Co. Chief Executive Jamie Dimon on Wednesday, as financial services executives and government officials seek to shore up troubled regional banks.
Brainard met with Dimon and other business leaders at the Financial Services Forum, according to a person familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to discuss the private meeting. The discussion, earlier reported by Reuters, was part of a series of meetings Brainard has had since taking over the National Economic Council with business, labor, advocacy, and academic leaders, the person said.
