JPMorgan Chase SCB Reduced to 4.3% as Fed Boosts Confidence in Bank's Resilience
JPMorgan Chase has received a reduction in its Stress Capital Buffer (SCB) from 5.1% to 4.3%, effective October 1, 2025, following a review by the Federal Reserve. This adjustment comes as the aggregate U.S. Basel III Standardized Approach Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio stands at 11.8%.
The Federal Reserve's decision to lower JPMorgan Chase's SCB reflects a positive assessment of the bank's resilience under stress. Sharon Yeshaya, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, welcomed this move, acknowledging the Fed's reconsideration of the company's 2025 CCAR results.
Looking ahead, JPMorgan Chase anticipates continued collaboration with the Federal Reserve on refining the stress testing framework. Despite the reduction in its SCB, the bank remains committed to its core strategies. It continues to prioritize global client engagement, invest in its core businesses, and maintain its quarterly dividend growth.
JPMorgan Chase's SCB reduction signals the Federal Reserve's confidence in the bank's ability to withstand stress. The bank, in turn, looks forward to further dialogue with the Fed and continues to focus on its strategic objectives.
