JPMorgan to pay $920M in 'London Whale' trading scandal settlement
JPMorgan agreed to pay $920M across SEC, OCC, FRB and FCA penalties resolving charges that bank-management failures permitted traders in its Chief Investment Office (Bruno Iksil, 'the London Whale') to mismark synthetic credit-derivative book values and conceal losses ultimately totaling $6.2B. The SEC complaint alleged that senior managers ignored internal risk-control warnings and made material misstatements to investors.
