Mark Leung (Linkedin 1/2/24): After spending an amazing quarter of a century with J.P. Morgan, I have decided to retire from the firm.
- It’s my pleasure and honor to have enjoyed a remarkable journey with J.P. Morgan, from a fresh graduate to a HKD fixed income trader to a member of the firm’s Global Corporate & Investment Banking Management Committee, having overseen and spearheaded our global equities and prime services business, which has now become a best-in-class franchise.
- Looking back over the past five years and nine months as the CEO for China, I am sincerely proud of what our China team has achieved together. J.P. Morgan has made itself a trusted partner and a “bridge” to assist Chinese companies going overseas and support multinational companies operating in China. We have doubled our business in this market with multiple breakthroughs – J.P. Morgan became the first foreign firm to fully own a Securities business and a Futures and Options Company, while in January of last year, the firm received regulatory approval for 100% ownership for what is now branded J.P. Morgan Asset Management in China.
- Some of my proudest and most rewarding moments took place when I worked as a J.P. Morgan volunteer to help underprivileged communities through the firm’s philanthropic programs. With my colleagues, we have volunteered our time and worked on multiple programs in places including Shaanxi, Sichuan and Guizhou province, in order to help boost small businesses, create new opportunities for young people and disadvantaged communities, and contribute to inclusive economic development in rural China.
- With the team’s support, I am proud that I have achieved all my priorities when I embarked on this journey.
- And life is about the journey.
- While I am very sad to leave, I am fully confident that our China franchise is now in a very strong position and will be in good hands to grow into the future, as I look to hand over my duty as the China CEO toward the year end. I am extremely grateful to have been able to work with numerous brilliant people around the world, with friendship and memories that I will cherish for good, as I look passionately forward to the next destination in life.
