These Two Slides From JPMorgan Show How More And More Human Labor Is Becoming Obsolete
It's JP Morgan's investor day and there's been a huge focus on cost cutting and creating a business that can deal with new regulation cutting into the firm's profit.
JPM is confident that it can win in this new environment, and has upped its yearly profit target from $24 billion to $27 billion.
Part of how CFO Maryann Lake explained the bank would achieve these ends is by optimizing its retail banks. In other words, fewer humans, more machines.
These two slides from the presentation show the decline of basic human skills.
First is the bank of the future...
And the second slide show how when customers interact with their bank, online activity is surging while phone and in-store are declining.
All this probably means there are more job cuts to come on top of the 2,000 in mortgage banking the JPM announced this morning.
