About John
John Delehanty is a Managing Director and Wealth Advisor with J.P. Morgan Wealth Management.

As a member of this program, John is subject to ongoing quantitative and qualitative reviews to assess his investment strategy. His investment process incorporates over 30 years of industry experience and reflects his extensive knowledge of equities, fixed income, and alternative assets.

He subsequently built his investment management business over the past 30 years by forging long-term client relationships and partnerships. He begins the process by ascertaining his clients' needs and goals, and then structures tailored portfolios, trust and estate plans, and risk management strategies designed to help achieve them. His overall goal as an advisor is to deliver moderate, preservation of capital with low volatility. John complements his services with J.P. Morgan's industry-leading research, open architecture platform, alternative assets portfolio managers, and an array of credit and mortgage facilities.
Continuing his career as a Senior Vice President at Lehman Brothers from 1998-2005, John then became a Director at Credit-Suisse in 2005, and transitioned to J.P. Morgan in his current capacity in 2014. In 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018, John was recognized as a Forbes Best-In-State Wealth Advisor.1
