John Simmons

I co-head the Global Banking business in J.P. Morgan’s Commercial & Investment Bank (CIB). In this role, I jointly oversee the Commercial, Corporate and Investment Banking franchises, and am a member of the CIB Management Committee. Previously, I served as Head of Commercial Banking (CB), which is comprised of Commercial & Specialized Industries, Commercial Real Estate and Community Impact Banking, and has more than 2,200 bankers and treasury professionals across the United States and Canada. CB supports nearly 70,000 clients including businesses – from early stage startups to mid-corporates – as well as government entities, not-for-profit organizations, and commercial real estate investors, developers and owners. Over the last 32 years, I’ve held leadership positions at J.P. Morgan in the Financial Institutions Group (FIG), Telecom, Media & Technology Investment Banking, Equity Capital Markets and Debt Capital Markets. Prior to joining CB, I served as Co-Head of FIG and managed the firm’s relationships with many of North America’s largest financial services firms. I received my BBA from The College of William & Mary, was on the Foundation Board of Trustees for nine years and currently remain a trustee emeritus.
