JAKARTA - Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, is reportedly secretly supporting Vice President Kamala Harris. Although he has never publicly expressed his support for any presidential candidate, a source close to Dimon revealed that he personally supports Harris and is considering an important role under Harris administration, such as the position of Secretary of Finance if Harris is elected president in the future.

According to Cointurk's information, Dimon's decision to remain politically neutral aims to avoid potential negative impacts or backlash, especially if Donald Trump wins the presidential election. By not expressing his preference publicly, Dimon is trying to protect JPMorgan Chase from the political pressures that may arise. While not yet fully expressing his support for Harris, Dimon has signaled his approval for some of Harris's policies and has shown interest in his cabinet if Harris wins the presidential election. However, Dimon has yet to make an official statement regarding his political views.

Dimon's relationship with Donald Trump has reportedly experienced tensions in recent years. Dimon called Trump's post-election 2020 behavior "traisal" and, at the same time, praising Trump's tax policy at the 2024 World Economic Forum, sparking speculation about the possibility of Dimon's support for the former president. "I want to understand and evaluate Trump's tax policy," said Dimon. This statement shows that despite tensions, Dimon remains open to dialogue regarding economic policies.

In addition, claims circulated that Dimon supported Trump through the Truth Social platform, but a spokesman for Dimon denied this, insisting that Dimon did not provide support to any presidential candidate. With an unclear attitude regarding his political preferences, Dimon hopes to protect JPMorgan from potential adverse effects, especially under Trump's leadership, who is known to frequently target his criticism.

As the leader of one of the largest financial institutions in the world, Jamie Dimon continues to establish ties with global leaders and policymakers. However, taking into account the political risks, especially from Trump, Dimon prefers to remain silent. The priority is to maintain the company's stability and security.
