A Letter from Jamie Dimon, Our Chairman and CEO, and Stephen B. Burke, Our Lead Independent Director
April 7, 2021
Dear fellow shareholders:
As we reflect and consider future plans, we are keenly focused on the lessons from 2020. A year into the pandemic, COVID-19 has affected many of us personally, the world is still fighting to combat the spread, and we are only beginning to address its economic fallout. Events brought into sharp focus societal gaps, including with respect to racial equity and access to health care. Yet, throughout 2020, as unprecedented events unfolded, we were there to support our clients and customers, employees, and communities. We did this by staying true to our fundamental business principles and commitment to building long-term value for our shareholders.

While substantial work lies ahead, we are pleased with how we have responded thus far. The Firm’s performance demonstrated the strength of our complete, global, and diversified business model. Despite the challenging environment, we generated record revenue, while adding to our credit reserves to be prepared for future challenges. We gained market share in our businesses, demonstrated strong expense discipline, continued to achieve high customer satisfaction scores, maintained a fortress balance sheet, and paid dividends and returned excess capital to shareholders through share repurchases.

The Board recognizes that continued strong performance requires vigilant focus on our core business principles – exceptional client service; operational excellence; integrity, fairness and responsibility; and a great team and culture. Through our oversight of the Firm’s strategic planning process, we hold management accountable for abiding by these principles, while navigating change and driving innovation. This includes thoughtful investments in technology and acquisitions that will enhance our product offerings, and deepen engagement with clients, customers, and communities in which we live and work. In 2020, we particularly emphasized innovations to expand digital banking capabilities for people navigating the new remote environment. We also emphasized the need to support our clients and customers, protect employees, and assist our communities while managing risks associated with the pandemic. To provide close oversight, the Board met more often, received more frequent updates, and paid particular attention to how circumstances informed the Firm’s overall strategy.

With respect to our team, success is not possible without a first-rate management team. Identifying, developing, and nurturing senior leaders is one of the Board’s highest priorities. To set ourselves up for success, your Board
regularly reviews succession planning for the CEO and the Operating Committee. We also meet with members of the Operating Committee and other senior leaders. This year, the Firm expanded the Operating Committee to include the heads of several of our largest businesses, to give them greater responsibility and broader exposure to firmwide issues. This expansion has also given the Board more opportunities to get to know a broad range of leaders who currently, and in the future will, execute the firm’s strategy and enhance our strong culture.

The Board also knows that our success is driven by the success of all our people and our reputation as a firm. Our culture is built on our core values of respect, integrity and inclusion, and we are focused on being an employer of choice for all talent. We are committed to hiring and retaining employees from all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, backgrounds, experiences and locations. In addition, this year, the Firm announced that we would invest $30 billion over the next five years to advance racial equity and help combat systemic racism within the communities in which we work. Management has detailed plans on how the firm will leverage its expertise in business, policy, and philanthropy to meet these goals. We have also developed a framework to hold management accountable for meeting these goals.

We also continued to take important steps to promote sustainability and reduce our environmental impact. Our 2020 initiatives included a commitment to align certain financing activities with the goals of the Paris Agreement, financing of more than $220 billion for transactions that advance the United Nations Sustainable Development goals and completion of the Firm’s inaugural green bond issuance of $1 billion.

Your dedicated directors are committed to these objectives and to maintaining a vital Board in the future. This year, we remained focused on our Board’s future. In December, we were fortunate to add Phebe Novakovic, Chairman and CEO of General Dynamics, to our Board and are pleased to nominate her for election by shareholders at the annual meeting. She brings to the Board an impressive combination of skills, experience and personal qualities that will serve our shareholders, the Firm, and the Board well.

We would also like to take this opportunity to again thank Lee Raymond, who retired from the Board in December 2020. We benefited greatly from his insights and contributions as a director and a trusted advisor. We all


share his optimism about JPMorgan’s future and Steve Burke is honored to succeed Lee as Lead Independent Director in working with our Board and management to deliver on that.

We look forward to continuing to deliver value to our customers, shareholders, and stakeholders. On behalf of the entire board, we are grateful for your support of the Board and the Firm.

JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

PROXY SUMMARY
 
New this year
 
To meet the unique challenges of 2020, the Firm enhanced existing programs and launched new efforts to demonstrate our continued commitment to shareholders, employees, clients, customers and stakeholders. These efforts are part of our response to some key ESG matters.
 
The Firm's response to COVID-19
 
At the onset of the pandemic, the Firm invoked resiliency plans to allow its businesses to remain operational and implemented alternative work arrangements globally, with the majority of its global workforce working from home, which has continued into 2021
The Firm implemented health and safety protocols and provided additional benefits to employees during the pandemic, including:
enhanced office hygiene measures;
over $100 million in special payments to employees whose job requires them to continue working onsite, with a focus on those with compensation of less than $60,000;
additional paid days off to manage personal needs;
additional support for employees with childcare needs; and
expanded healthcare and well-being resources
Additionally, the Firm responded to increased market volatility, client demand for credit and liquidity, distress in certain industries/sectors and the ongoing impacts to consumers and businesses
The Firm supported clients and customers by providing assistance primarily in the form of payment deferrals on loans and extending credit, including through participation in the Small Business Administration's ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP")
The Firm has committed $250 million to help address humanitarian needs and long-term economic challenges posed by the pandemic on the communities in which the Firm operates
 
Our Path Forward – $30 billion commitment to advance racial equity
 
Building on existing investments to maintain a culture of respect and inclusion and advance racial equity, in 2020, we announced that we will commit $30 billion over the next five years to advance racial equity and combat systemic racism within the communities in which we work. We will harness our expertise in business, policy and philanthropy and will work to:
Promote affordable housing and homeownership for underserved communities through new home purchase loans and refinancing loans for Black and Latinx households and financing of affordable rental units
Grow Black and Latinx-owned businesses by providing additional loans to small businesses and supplier opportunities
Improve financial health and access to banking in Black and Latinx communities
Accelerate investment in employees and build a more diverse and inclusive workforce by holding executives accountable for progress on diversity, equity and inclusion priorities
 
Advancing climate solutions
 
Climate change is a critical issue, and JPMorgan Chase strives to do our part in collaboration with clients, shareholders, policymakers and other stakeholders. Last year, a shareholder proposal concerning climate change risk reporting received support from 48.6% of our shareholders. The Firm has embarked on numerous initiatives that are responsive to that proposal and underscore our ongoing efforts to advance sustainability in our operations and financing activities. We continue to undertake credit and environmental due diligence for clients in different sectors in line with our internal risk policy and standard requirements, evaluating necessary information to make well informed and commercial risk decisions relative to our risk tolerances. In 2020, the Firm:
Committed to align our financing activities in three sectors—oil and gas, electric power and automotive manufacturing—with the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Launched the Center for Carbon Transition to engage clients on their long-term business strategies and provide centralized access to sustainability-focused financing, research and advisory solutions
Promoted sustainable development by completing the Firm's inaugural green bond issuance of $1 billion
Sourced renewable energy for 100% of our global power needs and committed to become carbon neutral in our operations
Enhanced our policy and industry engagement through participation in the Climate Leadership Council and Rocky Mountain Institute's Center for Climate-Aligned Finance

JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

PROXY SUMMARY
Proposal 2: Advisory resolution to approve executive compensation – page 37
We are submitting an advisory resolution to approve the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”).
We believe shareholders should consider three key factors in their evaluation of this year’s proposal:
1. How we think about pay decisions
The Firm’s How We Do Business Principles ("Business Principles") and strategic framework form the basis of our Operating Committee ("OC") members’ strategic priorities. The Compensation & Management Development Committee ("CMDC") references those strategic priorities and the Firm’s compensation philosophy to assess OC members’ performance and to determine their respective total compensation levels and pay mix.
2. How we performed against our business strategy
We continued to deliver strong multi-year financial performance, invest in our future, strengthen our risk and control environment, and reinforce our culture and values, including our long-standing commitment to serve our customers, employees and communities, and conduct business in a responsible way to drive inclusive growth.
3. How performance determined pay in 2020
In determining OC member pay, the CMDC took into account performance across four broad performance dimensions: Business Results; Risk, Controls & Conduct; Client/Customer/Stakeholder; and Teamwork & Leadership. CEO pay is strongly aligned to the Firm’s short-, medium- and long-term performance, with approximately 83% of the CEO’s variable pay deferred into equity, of which 100% is in at-risk performance share units ("PSUs"). Other NEO pay is also strongly aligned to Firm and line of business ("LOB") performance, with a majority of variable pay deferred into equity, of which 50% is in at-risk PSUs.
Disciplined performance assessment process to determine pay
The CMDC uses a balanced discretionary approach to determine annual compensation, which includes a disciplined assessment of performance against the aforementioned four broad dimensions over a sustained period of time. For 2020, compensation awarded to the OC members also represents a balance between the outstanding efforts and performance of the Firm during COVID-19 with the impact of the pandemic on the Firm's other stakeholders.

2021 PROXY STATEMENT

PROXY SUMMARY
Proposal 3: Approval of Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan effective May 18, 2021 – page 84
We are seeking approval of our Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), to renew the term of the Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan approved by shareholders on May 15, 2018 (the “2018 Plan”) by four years, to a term date of May 31, 2025, and to authorize approximately 29 million additional shares, bringing the total number of shares authorized under the Plan to 85 million shares (which is unchanged from the 2018 Plan). During our annual shareholder outreach program and discussion of our equity compensation practices, our shareholders indicated a preference for more frequent requests for approval of a smaller quantity of shares, as opposed to requesting larger quantities less frequently. As a result, the Compensation & Management Development Committee and the Board considered this feedback in determining the number of shares to request for authorization under the 2021 Plan.
The 2021 Plan would also continue to incorporate our compensation program for non-employee directors, with certain established retainers (both cash and equity) and certain limitations on future changes to those retainers (which are unchanged from the 2018 Plan).
Proposal 4: Ratification of Firm’s independent registered public accounting firm – page 92
The Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the Firm’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Consolidated Financial Statements of JPMorgan Chase and its subsidiaries for the year ending December 31, 2021. A resolution is being presented to our shareholders requesting ratification of PwC’s appointment.

Our Directors
JPMorgan Chase seeks director candidates who uphold the highest standards, are committed to the Firm’s values and are strong independent stewards of the long-term interests of shareholders, employees, customers, suppliers and communities in which we work. The Board, including the Corporate Governance & Nominating Committee (“Governance Committee”), considers Board composition holistically, with a focus on recruiting directors who have the qualities required to effectively oversee the Firm, including its present and future strategy. The Board seeks directors with experience in executive fields who will bring experienced and fresh perspectives and insight, and come together to effectively challenge and provide independent oversight of management. The Board looks for candidates with a diversity of experience, perspectives and viewpoints, including diversity with respect to gender, race, ethnicity and nationality.
The individuals presented on the following pages have been nominated for election because they possess the skills, experience, personal attributes and tenure needed to guide the Firm’s strategy, and to effectively oversee the Firm’s risk management and internal control framework, and management’s execution of its responsibilities.
In the biographical information about our director nominees that follows, the ages indicated are as of May 18, 2021, and the other information is as of the date of this proxy statement. There are no family relationships among the director nominees or between the director nominees and any executive officer. Unless otherwise stated, all nominees have been continuously employed by their present employers for more than five years.
All of the nominees are currently directors of the Firm. Other than Ms. Novakovic, who was elected to the Board effective December 2020, each was elected to the Board by our shareholders at our 2020 annual meeting.
Each nominee has agreed to be named in this proxy statement and, if elected, to serve a one-year term expiring at our 2022 annual meeting.
Directors are expected to attend our annual shareholder meetings. Nine of the ten directors serving on our Board at the time of the 2020 annual meeting attended the meeting. One director was unable to attend due to a prior professional obligation.

Board engagement
Director independence
All of the Firm’s non-management Board members are independent, under both the NYSE corporate governance listing standards and the Firm’s independence standards as set forth in its Governance Principles.
To be considered independent, a director must have no disqualifying relationships, as defined by the NYSE, and the Board must have affirmatively determined that he or she has no material relationships with JPMorgan Chase, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of another organization that has a relationship with the Firm.
In assessing the materiality of relationships with the Firm, the Board considers relevant facts and circumstances. Given the nature and broad scope of the products and services provided by the Firm, there are from time to time ordinary course of business transactions between the Firm and a director, his or her immediate family members, or principal business affiliations. These may include, among other relationships: extensions of credit; provision of other financial and financial advisory products and services; business transactions for property or services; and charitable contributions made by the JPMorgan Chase Foundation or the Firm to a nonprofit organization of which a director is an officer. The Board reviews these relationships to assess their materiality and determine if any such relationship would impair the independence and judgment of the relevant director. The Board considered:
Consumer credit: credit cards issued to directors Bammann, Crown, Flynn, Hobson, Neal, Novakovic and their immediate family members
Wholesale credit: extensions of credit and other financial and financial advisory products and services provided to: Berkshire Hathaway Inc., for which Mr. Combs is an Investment Officer, and its subsidiaries; Henry Crown and Company, for which Mr. Crown is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and other Crown family-owned entities; Ariel Investments, LLC, for which Ms. Hobson is Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, and its subsidiaries and funds; certain entities wholly-owned by Ms. Hobson’s spouse; and General Dynamics Corporation, for which Ms. Novakovic is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and its subsidiaries
Goods and services: commercial office space leased by the Firm from subsidiaries of companies in which Mr. Crown and members of his immediate family have indirect ownership interests; purchases from Berkshire Hathaway subsidiaries of private aviation services, professional services related to the Firm’s corporate-owned aircraft, and merchandising fixtures for retail branches; and purchases from General Dynamics subsidiaries of corporate aircraft and associated maintenance services and parts
The Board, having reviewed the relevant relationships between the Firm and each director and nominee, determined, in accordance with the NYSE’s listing standards and the Firm’s independence standards, that each non-management director (Linda B. Bammann, Stephen B. Burke, Todd A. Combs, James S. Crown, Timothy P. Flynn, Mellody Hobson, Michael A. Neal, Phebe N. Novakovic and Virginia M. Rometty) had only immaterial relationships with JPMorgan Chase and accordingly is independent. James A. Bell and Laban P. Jackson, Jr., who retired in May 2020, and Lee R. Raymond who retired in December 2020, had only immaterial relationships with JPMorgan Chase and accordingly were independent directors.
All directors who served on the Audit and Compensation & Management Development Committees of the Board were also determined to meet the additional independence and qualitative criteria of the NYSE listing standards applicable to directors serving on those committees. For more information about the committees of the Board, see pages 24-26.

Full Board consideration
The candidate is put forward for consideration by the full Board
Our By-laws also permit a shareholder group of up to 20 shareholders who have continuously owned at least 3% of the Firm’s outstanding shares for at least three years to nominate up to 20% of the Board (but in any event at least two directors). For further information, see page 112. All candidates recommended to the Governance Committee are evaluated based on the same standards.
Recent Board Refreshment
Since our last annual shareholders meeting, the Board, using the process described above and taking into account, among other factors, shareholders’ interest in board refreshment and adding directors with experience in technology and leadership of large, complex organizations, elected Phebe N. Novakovic to the Board effective December 2020. Ms. Novakovic has been among a select group of individuals considered as part of the Governance Committee’s evaluation of prospective Board members in recent years and has been an active participant at Firm events, including as a featured speaker. Based on her background and the support of several directors familiar with Ms. Novakovic's diligence, efforts and effectiveness, Mr. Dimon suggested that the Governance Committee consider Ms. Novakovic as a prospective candidate. After members of the Board met with Ms. Novakovic and the Governance Committee reviewed her qualifications, as well as her constructive personal attributes and her independence, Ms. Novakovic was recommended for election to the Board. For information on Ms. Novakovic’s qualifications, see page 18.

The Governance Committee also oversees the re-nomination process. In determining whether to re-nominate a director for election at our annual meeting, the Governance Committee reviews each director, considering:
image_951a.jpg
Retirement Policy
Our Governance Principles require a non-management director to offer not to stand for re-election in each calendar year following a year in which the director will be 72 or older. The Board (other than the affected director) then determines whether to accept the offer. The Board believes that the appropriate mix of experience and fresh perspectives is an important consideration in assessing Board composition, and the best interests of the Firm are served by taking advantage of all available talent, and evaluations as to director candidacy should not be determined solely on age.
None of our director nominees will be 72 or older this year.
For a description of the annual Board and committee self-assessment process, see page 27.

Our Board’s leadership structure
The Board’s leadership structure is designed to promote Board effectiveness and to appropriately allocate authority and responsibility between the Board and management.
The Board believes it is important to retain flexibility to determine its leadership structure based on the particular composition of the Board, the individuals serving in leadership positions, the needs and opportunities of the Firm as they change over time and the additional factors described on the following page. The Board has separated the Chairman and CEO positions in the past and may do so again in the future if it believes that doing so would be in the best interest of the Firm and its shareholders.
Based on consideration of the factors described on the following page, our Board has determined that combining the roles of Chairman and CEO is the most effective leadership structure for the Board at this time. The Board believes the present structure provides the Firm and the Board with strong leadership, appropriate independent oversight of management, continuity of experience that complements ongoing Board refreshment, and the ability to communicate their business and strategy to shareholders, clients, employees, regulators and the public in a single voice.
As required by the Firm’s Governance Principles when the role of the Chairman is combined with that of the CEO, the independent directors appointed a Lead Independent Director. Our Lead Independent Director focuses on the Board’s priorities and processes, facilitates independent oversight of management and promotes open dialogue among the independent directors during Board meetings, at
executive sessions without the presence of the CEO and between Board meetings.
In September 2020, the independent directors of the Board unanimously elected Stephen B. Burke as Lead Independent Director, succeeding Lee R. Raymond, effective January 1, 2021. In electing Mr. Burke as Lead Independent Director, the Board confirmed its March 2020 determination that its leadership structure, with a combined CEO and Chairman and Lead Independent Director, remains in the best interests of the Firm and its shareholders. The directors also considered the Board’s ongoing succession planning for the Lead Independent Director, the skills and attributes required of the role, and Mr. Burke’s background and experience, including his in-depth knowledge of the Firm and its businesses, strong interpersonal skills, demonstrated independent judgment and financial and operational track record as CEO of NBCUniversal. Mr. Raymond announced his resignation from the Board in December 2020, effective at the end of the year.

The Board conducts its business as a group and through a well-developed committee structure in adherence to our Governance Principles. The Board has established practices and processes to actively manage its information flow, set meeting agendas and promote sound, well-informed decisions.
Board members have direct access to management and regularly receive information from and engage with management during and outside of formal Board meetings.
In addition, the Board and each committee has the authority and resources to seek legal or other expert advice from sources independent of management.
The full Board met 13 times in 2020. For more information on committees, see below. Each director attended 75% or more of the total meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served in 2020.
Committees of the Board
A significant portion of our Board’s oversight responsibilities is carried out through its five independent, principal standing committees: Audit Committee, CMDC, Governance Committee, Public Responsibility Committee ("PRC") and Risk Committee. Allocating responsibilities among committees allows more in-depth attention devoted to the Board’s oversight of the business and affairs of the Firm.
Committees meet regularly in conjunction with scheduled Board meetings and hold additional meetings as needed. Each committee reviews reports from senior management and reports its actions to, and discusses its recommendations with, the full Board.
Each principal standing committee operates pursuant to a written charter. These charters are available on our website at jpmorganchase.com/about/governance/board-committees. Each charter is reviewed at least annually as part of the Board’s and each respective committee’s self-assessment.
The Governance Committee annually reviews the allocation of responsibility among the committees as part of the Board and committee self-assessment. For more information about the self-assessment process, see page 27.
Each committee has oversight of specific areas of business activities and risk, and engages with the Firm’s senior management responsible for those areas.
All committee chairs are appointed at least annually by our Board. Committee chairs are responsible for:
Calling meetings of their committees
Approving agendas for their committee meetings
Presiding at meetings of their committees
Serving as a liaison between committee members and the Board, and between committee members and senior management, including the CEO
Working directly with the senior management responsible for committee mandates
The Board determined each member of the Audit Committee in 2020 (Timothy P. Flynn, Todd A. Combs, Michael A. Neal and Phebe N. Novakovic) to be an audit committee financial expert in accordance with the definition established by the SEC, and that Ms. Bammann, the chair of the Risk Committee, has experience in identifying, assessing and managing risk exposures of large, complex financial firms in accordance with rules issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”).

Other Standing Committees
The Board has two additional standing committees:
Stock Committee: The committee is responsible for implementing the declaration of dividends, authorizing the issuance of stock, administering the dividend reinvestment plan and implementing share repurchase plans. The committee acts within Board-approved limitations and capital plans.
Executive Committee: The committee may exercise all the powers of the Board that lawfully may be delegated, but with the expectation that it would not take material actions absent special circumstances.
The Board may establish additional standing committees as needed.
Specific Purpose Committees
The Board establishes Specific Purpose Committees as appropriate to address specific issues. The Board currently has two such committees, the Markets Compliance Committee and the Omnibus Committee.
The Markets Compliance Committee provides oversight in connection with certain markets-related matters, including the Federal Reserve Consent order and the Deferred Prosecution Agreement entered into with the U.S. Department of Justice to resolve its precious metals and U.S. Treasuries investigations. It oversees and provides guidance to management with respect to relevant aspects of the company’s control agenda and oversees and monitors progress under plans developed by management with respect to these matters.
The Omnibus Committee reviews matters delegated by the Board.
As the Firm achieves its objectives in a specific area, the work of the relevant Specific Purpose Committee will be concluded and, subject to regulatory consent where applicable, the committee will be disbanded.
Additional Specific Purpose Committees may be established from time to time in the future to address particular issues.

Board and Committee self-assessment
The Board conducts an annual self-assessment aimed at enhancing its effectiveness. Through regular assessment of its policies, procedures and performance, the Board identifies areas for further consideration and improvement. In assessing itself, the Board takes a multi-year perspective. The Board self-assessment is guided by the Lead Independent Director and is conducted in phases.
Determine self-assessment framework
The Governance Committee reviews and provides feedback on the annual self-assessment framework.
image_1451.jpg
Conduct Board and Committee assessments
The Board reviews the actions taken in response to the previous year’s self-assessment and reviews the Board’s performance against regulatory requirements including its responsibilities under the OCC’s “Heightened Standards” for large national banks.
Board discussion topics include: strategic priorities; board structure; how the board spends its time; oversight of and interaction with management; oversight of culture; diversity and talent and related risk controls framework; and committee effectiveness.
Each principal standing committee conducts a self-assessment that includes a review of performance against committee charter requirements and focuses on committee agenda planning and the flow of information received from management. Committee discussion topics include committee composition and effectiveness, leadership, and the content and quality of meeting materials.
image_1451.jpg
Hold one-on-one discussions
The directors hold private individual discussions with the General Counsel using a discussion guide that frames the self-assessment.
The General Counsel and Lead Independent Director review feedback from the individual discussions.

Present action items to full Board
The General Counsel and Lead Independent Director report the feedback received to the Board.
Appropriate action plans are developed to address the feedback received. Throughout the year, the Board and Committees partner with management to execute and evaluate progress on action items.
Director education
Our director education program assists Board members in fulfilling their responsibilities. The director education program commences with an orientation program when a new director joins the Board. Ongoing education is provided through “deep dive” presentations from LOBs, discussions and presentations by subject matter experts and other opportunities, including events that take directors out of the boardroom and provide client, employee and other perspectives that can have a significant impact on the Firm. The program provides education on the Firm’s products, services and lines of business; cybersecurity and technology; significant and emerging risks; and relevant laws, regulations and supervisory requirements and other topics identified by the Board, including ESG issues.

3. Board oversight
The Board is responsible for oversight of the business and affairs of the Firm. It is also responsible for setting the cultural “tone at the top.” Among its core responsibilities, the Board oversees:
Strategy
The Board of Directors oversees management’s formulation and implementation of the Firm’s strategic initiatives. Annual strategic plans include evaluation of performance against the prior year’s initiatives, assessment of the current operating environment, refinement of existing strategies and development of new strategic initiatives. Throughout the year, the CEO and CFO provide updates on the Firm’s overall strategic direction, and senior management provides updates on the strategic opportunities and performance, priorities and implementation of strategies in their respective LOBs and Corporate Functions. These management presentations and financial plans are the foundation of active dialogue with, and feedback from, the Board about the strategic risks and opportunities facing the Firm and its businesses.
Executive performance and talent management
The CMDC reviews the Firm’s performance periodically during the course of the year, and formally, at least annually. The CMDC’s review of the CEO’s performance is presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s review of executive officer annual compensation.
Succession planning for the CEO and other members of the OC is considered at least annually. The CMDC also discusses at least annually the talent pipeline for specific critical roles. The Board has numerous opportunities to meet with, and assess development plans for, members of the OC and other high potential senior management leaders. This occurs through various means, including informal meetings, presentations to the Board and its committees, and Board dinners. For further information, see Compensation discussion and analysis (“CD&A”) on page 37.
Financial performance and condition
Throughout the year, the Board reviews the Firm’s financial performance and condition, including overseeing management’s execution against the Firm’s capital, liquidity, strategic and financial operating plans.
Reports on the Firm’s financial performance and condition are presented at each regularly scheduled Board meeting. The Firm’s annual Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (“CCAR”) submission, which contains the Firm’s
proposed plans to make capital distributions, such as dividend payouts, stock repurchases and other capital actions, is reviewed and approved prior to its submission to the Federal Reserve. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the Board in the oversight of the Firm’s financial statements and internal control framework. The Audit Committee also assists the Board in the appointment, retention, compensation, evaluation and oversight of the Firm’s independent registered public accounting firm. For further information, see “Risk management and internal control framework” below.
Risk management and internal
control framework
Risk is an inherent part of JPMorgan Chase’s business activities. When the Firm extends a consumer or wholesale loan, advises customers and clients on their investment decisions, makes markets in securities or offers other products or services, the Firm takes on some degree of risk. The Firm’s overall objective is to manage its businesses, and the associated risks, in a manner that balances serving the interests of its clients, customers and investors and protects the safety and soundness of the Firm.
The key risk areas of the Firm are managed on a Firmwide basis. Certain risks, such as strategic risk, are overseen by the full Board. Board committees support the Board’s oversight responsibility by overseeing the risk categories related to such committee’s specific area of focus.
Committee chairs report significant matters discussed at committee meetings to the full Board. Issues escalated to the full Board may be dealt with in several ways, as appropriate: oversight of risk may remain with the particular principal standing committee of the Board, the Board may establish or direct a Specific Purpose Committee to oversee management’s addressing of such risk matters, or the Board may ask management to present more frequently to the full Board on the issue.
Conduct risk is the risk that any action or inaction by an employee or employees could lead to unfair client or customer outcomes, impact the integrity of the markets in which the Firm operates or compromise the Firm’s reputation. Conduct risk is overseen by each of the five principal standing committees of the Board, with each committee overseeing conduct risks within that committee's scope of responsibility. Each LOB and Corporate Function is accountable for identifying and managing its conduct risk to promote a culture consistent with the Business Principles. The full set of Business Principles is included in “How We Do

Environmental, social and
governance matters
As noted throughout this Proxy, oversight of ESG matters is an important part of the Board's work, and ESG matters are considered in setting the policies and principles that govern our business. More specifically, the Board oversees a range of matters including:
the Firm’s governance-related policies and practices;
our systems of risk management and controls;
our investment in our employees;
the manner in which we serve our customers and support our communities; and
how we advance sustainability in our business and operations.

In particular, the Board’s PRC provides oversight of the Firm’s positions and practices on public responsibility matters such as community investment, fair lending, consumer practices, sustainability and other public policy issues that reflect the Firm’s values and impact its reputation among all of its stakeholders. In the past year, in addition to the work of the PRC, the Board members contributed to discussions regarding the Firm’s approach to COVID-19, racial equity and climate change, as discussed on page 6.
The Firm is committed to being transparent about our approach to and performance on ESG topics. One way we do this is by publishing an annual ESG Report, which provides information on how we are addressing the ESG matters that we and our stakeholders view as among the most important to our business. We continually monitor the evolving disclosure landscape and evaluate which frameworks best address our stakeholders' interest. As of 2020, our ESG disclosures are informed by the Global Reporting Initiative, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD"). The ESG information page on our website provides links to numerous JPMorgan Chase publications, documents, policies and other sources of information about various ESG topics, which are available at jpmorganchase.com/about/governance/esg.

Employees
Our Board is committed to maintaining a strong corporate culture that, based on our core values of respect, integrity and inclusion, instills and enhances a sense of personal accountability on the part of all of the Firm’s employees.
In addition to discussions at Board meetings with senior management about these efforts, our directors participate in meetings with employees to emphasize this commitment. These meetings include employee town halls, lines of business and leadership team events, annual senior leaders’ meetings and informal sessions with members of the OC and other senior leaders.
Regulators
Our Board and senior leaders commit significant time to meeting with regulators. These interactions help us learn first-hand from regulators about matters of importance to them and their expectations of us. It also gives the Board and management a forum for keeping our regulators well-informed about the Firm’s performance and business practices.
Stakeholders
We share a fundamental commitment to all of our stakeholders, including our customers, suppliers and communities in which we work. As we strive to deliver value, management engages with our stakeholders on a range of issues in a variety of ways. These may include participation in consumer advisory panels, town halls and meetings with policy advocacy groups and nonprofit organizations. We actively seek feedback on key topics to help us better understand what is important to our stakeholders and find ways to deliver value while also navigating financial, legal and regulatory considerations. In recent years, we have engaged in extensive stakeholder outreach pertaining to, among other topics, human capital management including diversity, equity and inclusion, climate change risk and ESG-related disclosures.
Management shares insights and feedback from these relationships and engagements with the Board, providing the Board with valuable insights. Board members are also provided opportunities to engage with stakeholders through client events, town halls, business resource groups ("BRG"), and shareholder discussions.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION | CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Director compensation
The Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing director compensation and making recommendations to the Board. In making its recommendations, the Governance Committee annually reviews the Board’s responsibilities and the compensation practices of peer firms, which include the same group of peer firms referenced with respect to the compensation of our NEOs. For more information see “Evaluating market practices” on page 45.
The Board believes a best practice is to link director compensation to the Firm’s performance; therefore, a significant portion of director compensation is paid in common stock.
This year we are also seeking shareholder approval of a proposed new Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”), which includes our non-employee director compensation plan. The Firm's current LTIP, which was approved by the shareholders in 2018, also included non-employee director compensation. There has been no increase in non-employee director compensation since 2017. For additional information on the proposed new LTIP, see page 84.
Annual compensation
For each calendar year of service on the Board, each non-employee director receives an annual cash retainer of $100,000 and if the non-employee director is on the board at the time when annual performance year equity awards are granted, an annual grant of deferred stock units valued at $250,000. Compensation paid during 2020, including additional cash compensation paid for certain committee and other service, is described in the following tables.
Each deferred stock unit included in the annual grant to directors represents the right to receive one share of the Firm’s common stock and dividend equivalents payable in deferred stock units for any dividends paid. Deferred stock units have no voting rights. In January of the year immediately following a director’s termination of service, deferred stock units are distributed in shares of the Firm’s common stock in either a lump sum or in annual installments for up to 15 years as elected by the director.
The following table summarizes the 2020 annual compensation for non-employee directors for service on the Boards of the Firm, the Bank and J.P. Morgan Securities plc. There is no additional compensation paid for service on the Board of IHC.

1Includes fees earned, whether paid in cash or deferred, for service on the Board of Directors. For additional information on each director’s service on committees of JPMorgan Chase, see “Committees of the Board” on pages 24-26.
2On January 21, 2020, each non-employee director who was on the board at the time when annual performance year equity awards were granted, received an annual grant of deferred stock units valued at $250,000, based on a grant date fair market value of the Firm’s common stock of $137.38 per share. The aggregate number of stock and option awards outstanding at December 31, 2020, for each current director is included in the “Security ownership of directors and executive officers” table on page 82 under the columns “SARs/Options exercisable within 60 days” and “Additional underlying stock units,” respectively. All such awards are vested.
3Includes fees paid to the non-employee directors for their service on the Board of Directors of the Bank or who are members of one or more Specific Purpose Committees. A fee of $2,500 is paid for each Specific Purpose Committee meeting attended (with the exception of the Omnibus Committee). Also includes for Mr. Flynn and Mr. Jackson, pro-rated compensation during 2020 in consideration of their services as directors of J.P. Morgan Securities plc, the Firm’s principal operating subsidiary outside the U.S. and a subsidiary of the Bank, which began on June 3, 2020, for Mr. Flynn and ended on June 8, 2020, for Mr. Jackson.
4Mr. Bell retired from the Board in May 2020 on the eve of the 2020 annual meeting. Retainers for Board and committee service were pro-rated. Other fees paid to Mr. Bell include an amount for a commemorative item for his service on the Board and an amount to cover taxes for the item.
5Mr. Jackson retired from the Board in May 2020 on the eve of the 2020 annual meeting. Retainers for Board and committee service were pro-rated. Other fees paid to Mr. Jackson include an amount for a commemorative item for his service on the Board and an amount to cover taxes for the item.
Stock ownership: no sales, no hedging, no pledging
As stated in the Governance Principles and further described in “Anti-hedging/anti-pledging provisions” on page 33, each director agrees to retain all shares of the Firm’s common stock he or she purchased on the open market or received pursuant to his or her service as a Board member for as long as he or she serves on our Board.
Shares held personally by a director may not be held in margin accounts or otherwise pledged as collateral, nor may the economic risk of such shares be hedged.
As detailed on page 82 under “Security ownership of directors and executive officers,” Mr. Crown has ownership of certain shares attributed to him that arise from the business of Henry Crown and Company, an investment company where Mr. Crown serves as Chairman and CEO, and trusts of which Mr. Crown serves as trustee (the “Attributed Shares”). Mr. Crown disclaims beneficial ownership of such Attributed Shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest. The Attributed Shares are distinct from shares Mr. Crown or his spouse own individually, or shares held in trusts for the benefit of his children (the “Crown Personally Held Shares”). The Firm has reviewed the potential pledging of the Attributed Shares with Mr. Crown, recognizes Mr. Crown’s distinct obligations with respect to Henry Crown and Company and the trusts, and believes such Attributed Shares
may be prudently pledged or held in margin loan accounts. Crown Personally Held Shares are not and may not be held in margin accounts or otherwise pledged as collateral, nor may the economic risk of such shares be hedged.
Deferred compensation
Each year, non-employee directors may elect to defer all or part of their cash compensation. A director’s right to receive future payments under any deferred compensation arrangement is an unsecured claim against JPMorgan Chase’s general assets. Cash amounts may be deferred into various investment equivalents, including deferred stock units. Upon retirement from the Board, compensation deferred into stock units will be distributed in stock; all other deferred cash compensation will be distributed in cash. Deferred compensation will be distributed in either a lump sum or in annual installments for up to 15 years as elected by the director commencing in January of the year following the director’s retirement from the Board.
Reimbursements and insurance
The Firm reimburses directors for their expenses in connection with their Board service or pays such expenses directly. The Firm also pays the premiums on directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies and on travel accident insurance policies covering directors as well as employees of the Firm.

Policies and procedures for approval of related party transactions
The Firm has adopted a written Transactions with Related Persons Policy (“Policy”), which sets forth the Firm’s policies and procedures for reviewing and approving transactions with related persons – our directors, executive officers, their respective immediate family members and 5% shareholders. The transactions covered by the Policy include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the Firm is a participant, the related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest and the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any fiscal year.
After becoming aware of any transaction which may be subject to the Policy, the related person is required to report all relevant facts with respect to the transaction to the General Counsel of the Firm. Upon determination by the General Counsel that a transaction requires review under the Policy, the material facts of the transaction and the related person’s interest in the transaction are provided to the Governance Committee. The transaction is then reviewed by the disinterested members of the Governance Committee, who determine whether approval or ratification of the transaction shall be granted. In reviewing a transaction, the Governance Committee considers facts and circumstances that it deems relevant to its determination, such as:
management’s assessment of the commercial reasonableness of the transaction; the materiality of the related person’s direct or indirect interest in the transaction; whether the transaction may involve an actual, or the appearance of, a conflict of interest; any controls associated with the transaction; and, if the transaction involves a director, the impact of the transaction on the director’s independence.
Certain types of transactions are pre-approved in accordance with the terms of the Policy. These include transactions in the ordinary course of business involving financial products and services provided by, or to, the Firm, including loans, provided such transactions are in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Federal Reserve Board Regulation O and other applicable laws and regulations.
Transactions with directors, executive officers and 5% shareholders
Our directors and executive officers, and some of their immediate family members and affiliated entities, and BlackRock, Inc. and affiliated entities ("BlackRock") and The Vanguard Group and affiliated entities ("Vanguard"), beneficial owners of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock, were customers of, or had transactions with or involving, JPMorgan Chase or our banking or other subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business during 2020. Additional transactions may be expected to take place in the future.
Any outstanding loans to the foregoing persons and entities and any other transactions involving the Firm’s financial products and services (such as banking, brokerage, investment, investment banking, and financial advisory products and services) provided to such persons and entities: (i) were made in the ordinary course of business, (ii) were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral (where applicable)), as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons and entities not related to the Firm (or, where eligible with respect to executive officers, immediate family members and affiliated entities, on such terms as are available under our employee benefits or compensation programs) and (iii) did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.
The fiduciary committees for the JPMorgan Chase Retirement Plan and for the JPMorgan Chase 401(k) Savings Plan (each, a “Plan”) entered into agreements with BlackRock giving it discretionary authority to manage certain assets on behalf of each Plan. Pursuant to these agreements, fees of approximately $6.4 million were paid by the Plans to BlackRock. in 2020. JPMorgan Chase UK Retirement Plan paid BlackRock approximately $790,000 for the portfolio management services provided to its Trustee, JPMorgan Pension Trustees Limited. Subsidiaries of the Firm have subscribed to information services and received consulting

services from BlackRock, including and related to select market data, analytics and modeling, and paid BlackRock approximately $890,000 in 2020 for the services. JPMorgan Chase paid BlackRock approximately $6.8 million in 2020 to access its Aladdin® platform.
Certain J.P. Morgan mutual funds and subsidiaries entered into a sub-transfer agency agreement with Vanguard and paid Vanguard approximately $380,000 in 2020 for services rendered, primarily accounting, recordkeeping and administrative services.
In 2019, the Firm, as administrative agent and lender, entered into a senior secured reserve-based revolving loan facility (the "RBL") with Sable Land Company, LLC ("Sable"), which was partially owned by funds managed by The Energy and Minerals Group ("EMG"). Former Director Lee Raymond's son serves as Chief Executive Officer of EMG and held one of three EMG board seats on Sable's board. The RBL was entered into in the ordinary course of business, on terms prevailing in the market and, at the time, did not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. The Firm's maximum exposure during the period was $470 million of the aggregate $700 million RBL commitments. Prior to the bankruptcy noted below, EMG owned approximately 47% of Sable, and Director Raymond and his son together owned, directly or indirectly, less than 2% of Sable. In June 2020, Sable filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the RBL lenders (including the Firm) provided super-priority debtor-in possession financing, and in January 2021, pursuant to a consensual plan of reorganization, the lenders exchanged this financing and the RBL loans for a $315 million senior-secured bankruptcy exit facility and 100% of the equity of reorganized Sable. EMG supported the plan although its equity in Sable was cancelled.
In January 2019, the Firm entered into agreements for the sale and redevelopment of a retail bank branch property in California to modernize the branch and monetize excess development rights. Following a solicitation and review of proposals from several major real estate developers, a company not affiliated with the Firm or its directors or executive officers was selected to lead the project. The development company is expected to make the purchase through an existing legal entity as a result of which Director James Crown and members of his immediate family are expected to hold indirect equity interests in the property which in the aggregate would exceed 10%. The purchase price will depend upon the development rights attained and is anticipated to exceed $32 million. The transaction has not been consummated and closing is subject to completion of the development entitlements process and satisfaction of other contractual conditions precedent. The transaction is not material to the overall investment holdings of Mr. Crown and members of his immediate family, and it was negotiated with the unaffiliated development company in the ordinary course of business.
In December 2020, as part of the Firm’s plan to invest $30 billion to advance racial equity, the Firm approved co-
investment of up to $200 million on a deal-by-deal basis in Black and Latinx-owned businesses alongside Project Black (the “Co-Invest Program”). Project Black is a private equity initiative of Ariel Alternatives, LLC, an affiliate of Ariel Investments, LLC, of which Director Mellody Hobson is Co-CEO and President. The purpose of the Co-Invest Program is to facilitate co-investments by the Firm in businesses that (i) are Black or Latinx-owned prior to any investment by Project Black or the Firm, or (ii) will become Black or Latinx-owned by virtue of the investment by Project Black and that will be managed so as to increase diversity into the acquired company’s leadership and management. In connection with the Co-Invest Program, the Firm will neither receive fees from nor pay fees to Ariel Investments, LLC or any of its affiliates. The Co-Invest Program is not material to Mellody Hobson or Ariel Investments, LLC.

  Encouraging a shared

  Attracting and

 No special perquisites

Performance Assessment
  
In accordance with our compensation philosophy, the CMDC uses a balanced and disciplined approach to assess OC member performance throughout the year against four broad dimensions:
Business Results, including absolute and relative performance over multiple years
Risk, Controls & Conduct, including feedback received from the Firm’s risk and control professionals
Client/Customer/Stakeholder, including our engagement in communities and commitment to provide economic opportunity to underserved communities
Teamwork & Leadership, including creating a diverse, inclusive, respectful and accountable environment and developing employees, managers and leaders
image_63.jpg
Pay Determination and Pay Mix
  Following the performance assessment process, the CMDC determines the total compensation for each OC member, as well as their respective pay mix. Pay mix may include salary, cash incentive, Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") and formula-based PSUs. Pay levels and pay mix are determined in the context of competitive market practices.
 
image_52a.jpg
In summary, the CMDC believes that the disciplined and holistic process it follows for determining OC member pay is appropriately balanced by the formula used in our PSU program that ultimately determines OC member payout.

How we think about pay decisions

How performance determined pay in 2020
Our compensation philosophy, pay practices and governance process
Our pay-for-performance compensation program is designed to align the long-term interests of our employees with those of our shareholders by emphasizing sustained value and reinforcing personal accountability.
COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
Our compensation philosophy provides the guiding principles that drive compensation-related decisions across all levels of the Firm. We believe our compensation philosophy promotes an equitable and well-governed approach to compensation, which includes pay-for-performance practices that attract and retain top talent in a competitive market, is responsive to and aligned with shareholders, reinforces our culture and Business Principles, and integrates risk, controls and conduct considerations.
PAYING FOR
PERFORMANCE
AND ALIGNING WITH
SHAREHOLDERS’
INTERESTS
In making compensation-related decisions, we focus on risk-adjusted performance (the Firm’s risk and control professionals help contextualize the risk taken to achieve the return) and reward behaviors that generate sustained value for the Firm. This means that compensation should not be overly formulaic, rigid or focused on the short-term.
A majority of OC member incentive compensation should be in equity that vests over multiple years to align with sustained performance.
 
 
ENCOURAGING A
SHARED SUCCESS
CULTURE
Teamwork and leadership should be encouraged and rewarded to foster a culture that supports our Business Principles.
Contributions should be considered across the Firm, within business units, and at an individual level when evaluating an employee’s performance.
 
 
ATTRACTING
AND RETAINING
TOP TALENT
Our long-term success depends on the talents of our employees. Our compensation philosophy plays a significant role in our ability to attract, properly motivate and retain top talent.
Competitive and reasonable compensation should help attract and retain the best talent to grow and sustain our business.
 
 
INTEGRATING RISK
MANAGEMENT AND
COMPENSATION
Risk management, compensation recovery, and repayment policies should be robust and designed to encourage behaving with standards of integrity that are required by our culture and Business Principles. Excessive risk-taking should be deterred.
Conduct matters should be reviewed following Firmwide frameworks.
Recoupment policies should include recovery of cash and equity compensation.
Our pay practices must comply with applicable rules and regulations, both in the U.S. and globally.
 
 
NO SPECIAL
PERQUISITES AND
NON-PERFORMANCE
BASED
COMPENSATION
Compensation should be straightforward and consist primarily of cash and equity incentives.
We do not have special supplemental retirement or other special benefits just for executives, nor do we have any change-in-control agreements, golden parachutes, merger bonuses, or other special severance benefit arrangements for executives.

Strong corporate governance is fostered by independent Board oversight of our executive compensation program by the CMDC, including defining the Firm’s compensation philosophy, reviewing and approving the Firm’s overall incentive compensation pools, and approving compensation for our OC, including the terms of compensation awards; CEO compensation is subject to full Board ratification.
We have a rigorous process in place to review risk, control and conduct issues at the Firm, line of business, functional, and regional levels, which can impact compensation pools as well as reduce compensation at the individual level, in addition to other employee actions.
  
 
TRANSPARENCY WITH
SHAREHOLDERS
Transparency to shareholders regarding our executive compensation program is important. We disclose all material terms of our executive pay program and any actions on our part in response to significant events, as appropriate.

How performance determined pay in 2020
The effectiveness of our compensation program is dependent upon the alignment of sound pay-for-performance practices with our compensation philosophy. Highlighted below are pay practices that are integral to our compensation program, as well as certain pay practices that we chose not to implement.
WE ADOPT SOUND PAY PRACTICES
image_212a.jpg
Principles-based compensation philosophy – Guiding principles that drive compensation-related decision-making across all levels of the Firm
image_212a.jpg
Competitive benchmarking – We evaluate pay levels and pay practices against relevant market data
image_212a.jpg
Robust anti-hedging/anti-pledging provisions – Strict prohibition on hedging and pledging of unvested awards and shares owned outright
image_212a.jpg
Responsible use of equity – We used less than 1% of weighted average diluted shares in 2020 for employee compensation
image_212a.jpg
Strong clawback provisions – Comprehensive recovery provisions that enable us to cancel or reduce unvested awards and require repayment of previously awarded compensation, if appropriate
image_212a.jpg
Risk, controls and conduct impact pay – We consider material risk, controls and conduct issues and make adjustments to compensation, if appropriate
image_212a.jpg
Pay at risk – OC member compensation is predominantly “at-risk” and contingent on the achievement of performance goals that are integrally linked to shareholder value and safety and soundness
image_212a.jpg
Strong share holding requirements – OC members are required to retain significant portions of net shares received from awards to increase ownership over the long-term
image_212a.jpg
Majority of variable pay is in deferred equity – Most OC member variable compensation is deferred in the form of PSUs and RSUs that vest over three years1
image_212a.jpg
Robust shareholder engagement – Each year we provide the Board with feedback from our shareholders on a variety of topics, including our compensation programs and practices
WE AVOID POOR PAY PRACTICES
image_46.jpg
No golden parachute agreements – We do not provide additional payments or benefits as a result of a change-in-control event
image_46.jpg
No guaranteed bonuses – We do not provide guaranteed bonuses, except for select individuals at hire
image_46.jpg
 
No special severance – We do not provide special severance. All employees, including OC members, participate at the same level of severance, based on years of service, capped at 52 weeks up to a maximum credited salary
image_46.jpg
 
No special executive benefits
No private club dues or tax gross-ups for benefits
No 401(k) Savings Plan matching contribution
No special health or medical benefits
No special pension credits
GOVERNANCE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CMDC

Reviewing and approving overall incentive compensation pools (including equity/cash mix)
Reviewing the business-aligned incentive compensation plan governance, design and evaluation framework

Reviewing over multiple meetings and approving compensation for our OC and, for the CEO, making a compensation recommendation to the Board for consideration and ratification by the independent directors
Reviewing compensation for employees who are material risk-takers identified under Federal Reserve standards (“Tier 1 employees”), U.K. and/or European Union standards (“Identified Staff”) or other similar standards, collectively “Designated Employees”
Reviewing and approving the design and terms of compensation awards, including recovery/clawback provisions
The CMDC continues to retain the discretion to make awards and pay amounts that may not qualify as tax deductible.
1PSUs are also subject to a two-year hold after each vesting for a combined holding period of five years. The terms and conditions of Mr. Pinto’s compensation reflect the requirements of E.U. and U.K. regulations. Refer to Note 1 on page 46 for additional information on Mr. Pinto’s pay mix.

How performance determined pay in 2020
Performance assessment starts with planning and priority-setting
The CMDC uses a disciplined pay-for-performance framework to make decisions about the compensation of our OC members, so that their compensation is commensurate with the overall performance of the Firm, their respective businesses, and their individual performance. The cycle starts with establishing strategic plans, budgets and priorities at those same levels, with the key elements and timing summarized below:
OC STRATEGIC
PLANNING
At their annual strategy meeting typically held in the summer, the Operating Committee defines the Firm's strategic framework, establishes strategic priorities for the Firm, lines of business (“LOB”), and functions, and evaluates progress against the prior year’s strategic priorities.Q3
image_1971.jpg
BOARD
STRATEGY
REVIEW
Following the OC strategy meeting, the Board reviews Firm and business unit strategies, business plans and preliminary budgets for the upcoming year.Q3
image_1971.jpg
PRIORITY
SETTING
OC members establish Firm, business/function and individual performance priorities, which are shared with the Board.Q4
image_1971.jpg
BUDGET/STRATEGIC
FRAMEWORK
The Board reviews multi-year Firm and business/function budgets against strategic priorities, and the CMDC approves the Firm’s multi-year strategic framework as the goals and objectives for the CEO.Q4-
Q1
image_1971.jpg
EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION
Key strategic initiatives and medium-term financial targets are communicated externally.Q1
image_1971.jpg
RISK &
CONTROL
REVIEW
Assessments of workforce conduct-related matters occur throughout the year. The outcomes of these assessments may result in compensation impacts, negative performance ratings, or other appropriate employment actions or decisions.Q1-
Q4
Feedback on OC members is provided by the Firm's risk and control professionals.Q4
image_1971.jpg
PERFORMANCE
ASSESSMENTS
OC members prepare individual self-assessments. At year-end, the Board and CMDC are provided with OC members’ individual self-assessments in support of their holistic assessment throughout the cycle of OC member performance against strategic priorities. Individual performance of our NEOs is discussed in greater detail on pages 66-71.Q4
Throughout the performance assessment process, the Board and CMDC engage in regular discussions with the CEO and the Head of Human Resources ("HR") about individual OC members’ performance, as appropriate.
This approach (rather than determining pay levels during a single year-end process) enables the CMDC and the Board to make balanced and informed OC member pay decisions that are aligned with long-term performance against four broad dimensions, which consider short-, medium- and long-term priorities that drive sustained shareholder value, while accounting for risk, controls and conduct objectives:
Business ResultsRisk, Controls &
Conduct
Client / Customer /
Stakeholder
Teamwork &
Leadership
To promote a proper pay-for-performance alignment, the CMDC does not assign relative weightings to these dimensions, and also considers other relevant factors, including market practices.
