The JPMorgan Fine and Penalty


Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. In this episode Matt and Tom go into the weeds to look at the recent fine of $920 million against JPMorgan for spoofing. Some of the issues we consider are:

  • What is spoofing?
  • How did the CFTC use data analytics to build their case?
  • What does that mean for compliance professionals?
  • How did the JPMorgan remediation of its compliance function reduce ?
  • Once again, the DOJ demonstrates that robust remediation will pay great dividends in the form of a significant penalty reduction.
