JPMORGAN: 'We are a technology company'
JPMorgan CFO Marianne Lake says her firm is more than just a bank.
"We are a technology company," Lake said, speaking at JPMorgan's Investor Day on Tuesday.
JPMorgan Chase has a team of 40,000 technologists, including 18,000 developers "creating intellectual property," according to the firm.
It has a $9 billion technology budget, about one third of which is spent on investments. The firm also spends about $2 billion on security, including cyber security and proactive defense risk measures.
JPMorgan is not the first global investment bank to refer to itself as a tech company.
Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein has repeatedly referred to his own firm as a tech company in the past.
