JPMorgan Plans to Hire 1,300 More Advisers Over Next Three Years

JPMorgan Chase & Co. plans to hire about 1,300 advisers over the next three years as part of a strategy to boost assets in its wealth-management operation to $1 trillion.

The additions would bring the total to 6,000 from about 4,700, Jennifer Piepszak, co-chief executive officer of JPMorgan’s consumer and community banking operation, said at the firm’s investor day Monday. The bank has already added 1,100 advisers since 2017, she said.
