About James Jacob

A history of experienced guidance

As I continued to build my business among high-net-worth private investors and regional institutional investors, I discovered numerous corporate clients that could potentially benefit from innovative strategies. The result of my efforts over the course of the 1990s and the 2000s was:

  • A focus on stock option and corporate equity strategies in the mid-Atlantic states.
  • An interest rate product and credit business that spanned two continents and counterparties ranging from supra-national organizations to hometown banks.
  • A private client business that supported clients seeking thoughtful strategies.

With J.P. Morgan Wealth Management, I have returned to my small firm roots. Here I find myself surrounded by some of the most innovative individuals in the industry. Further, J.P. Morgan's fortress balance sheet helps to reassure my clients that both the firm and I will remain viable to continue working toward each client's unique goals.
