History
Jamie Dimon was born in
New York City, New York to Theodore and Themis Dimon. His grandfather, a Greek people immigrant from Smyrna, was a broker and passed on his knowledge of the business to his son and partner, Theodore. They worked together for 19 years, and Jamie held summer jobs at their New York office.
Jamie Dimon majored in biology and economics at Tufts University, before earning an Master of Business Administration degree from Harvard Business School. Upon his graduation in 1982,
Sandy Weill convinced him to turn down offers from
Goldman Sachs and
Morgan Stanley to join him as an assistant at American Express. Though Weill could not offer the same amount of money as the investment banks, Weill promised Dimon that he would have "fun." In a power struggle, Weill left American Express in 1985, Dimon followed him, and the two took over
Commercial Credit, a consumer finance company, from Control Data, which became the vehicle that Dimon and Weill would use to propel themselves to the top of the financial world. Through a series of unprecedented mergers and acquisitions, in 1998 Dimon and Weill were able to form the largest financial services conglomerate the world had ever seen, Citigroup. Although Weill was the one who made the deals, Dimon was the "whiz kid" who made the numbers work.
Dimon left Citigroup in November 1998. It was rumored at the time that he and Weill got into an argument in 1997 over the perceived lack of promotion given by Dimon to Weill's daughter,
Jessica M. Bibliowicz. In his 2005 University of Chicago Graduate School of Business Fireside Chat and 2006 Kellogg School interviews, Dimon stated that he was fired by Weill.
In March 2000 Dimon became CEO of Bank One, then the nation's fifth largest bank. He became president of JPMorgan Chase & Co. in mid-2004 when it acquired Bank One.
Dimon was named to
Time (magazine)'s 2006 list of the world's 100 most influential people.
He is married to Judith Kent. They have three children.
Quotes
- Then he unleashed a biting one-liner: "But if you paid one dollar for Texas Commerce bank" -- which J.P. Morgan acquired in 1987 for $1.2 billion -- "you paid a dollar too much!" The room, studded with Texas Commerce alumni and executives who had championed the deal, went dead silent.
I went to work for Sandy...to build something. The reason I went to work for Sandy was because I liked him...and I like him because he was down to earth, no b.s., told it the way it was, he dealt with the secretaries and the drivers and the clerks the same way he dealt with anybody else, tremendous common sense. I also think that people make the big mistake, they think they have to fight their way to the top, I think a lot of people are pushed to the top, and they're pushed to the top by people who like them, trust them, respect them, and consider them leaders, I'm going to talk about it later because I think it's probably the most important thing.

By the middle of '07 we will have, pretty much, one loan system, one wire system, one deposit system, maybe two or three general ledgers. ... We'll have far bigger and more efficient data systems, storage centers etc. And your cost efficiency will be enormous, your ability to innovate will also be much better.

We have more programmers than Microsoft... from arbitrage to CDO pricing to even automated bank statements- in-house development drives everything we do. Could we build something like Microsoft Windows? Well, for the one-third of the features we absolutely need, I think the answer is yes.
