In 2021, JPMorgan’s board paid him a generous stock bonus to keep him on the job for a “significant number of years.” Dimon, who has also served as the bank’s board chairman since 2007, has said he expects to remain on the board even after he steps down as CEO.

JPMorgan Chase is focused on succession planning and has a cadre of "extremely" qualified people who are prepared to run the bank eventually, CEO Jamie Dimon said on Tuesday.

JPMorgan Chase has a roster of talented executives who could take on the top job, according to CEO Jamie Dimon. The question of who will take on one of the highest-profile jobs on Wall Street has spiked up the agenda after 68-year-old Dimon announced he would be leaving the CEO role within the next five years.

Dimon said at a conference Tuesday that president and COO Daniel Pinto 'could run the bank tomorrow," according to Reuters.
