Jamie Dimon Already Has Visited the White House Twice

Goldman Sachs may have alumni high up in Trump’s administration, but JPMorgan is in the House.

 

JPM CEO Jamie Dimon’s trip to the White House on Friday was at least his 2nd visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in as many weeks - even as Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein has yet to make plans to meet with the president.

 

Blankfein spoke to Trump about former Goldman President Gary Cohn, who has since joined the administration as director of the National Economic Council, but hasn’t penciled in any time to meet soon.

 

The 2 Wall Street chiefs have taken different approaches to the Trump administration policies. After Trump’s Muslim ban took effect, JPMorgan issued a statement supporting its employees, but didn’t comment on the policy. Blankfein, on the other hand, blasted the ban as “not a policy we support.”
