JPMorgan Chase set aside $1bn in legal reserves, depressing third-quarter results yesterday, as the largest US bank by assets prepares to pay big penalties over allegations it manipulated the foreign exchange market.
摩根大通(JPMorgan Chase)又预留出10亿美元法律准备金,削弱了昨日发布的三季度财报结果。这家美国资产规模最高的银行准备因操纵外汇市场的指控支付高额罚金。
Bulking up its reserves by $1bn was more than analysts expected and took the bank’s profits for the three months to the end of September below expectations, at $5.6bn.
摩根大通将准备金提高10亿美元,高于分析师们的预期,将该行截至9月底的三季度利润压至56亿美元,逊于预期。
It is a sign that JPMorgan is close to settling enforcement action, which is being led by authorities in the UK and US, and affects more than 15 banks.
这表明,摩根大通已接近就英美当局主导的针对逾15家银行的执法行动达成和解。
