“Marianne Lake has served with distinction as our firm’s CFO and as a deeply knowledgeable and trusted partner to me and my colleagues,” Dimon said. “We are fortunate to have such an extraordinary executive taking the helm of our Consumer Lending businesses, a part of the firm she knows extremely well having acted as CFO of Consumer & Community Banking from 2009-2012.”

Gordon Smith, Co-President and Chief Operating Officer, and CEO of Consumer & Community Banking, added: “I’ve had the privilege of working closely with both Jenn and Marianne for many years. They are truly exceptional talents who will not only build on our company’s successes, but also help us to accelerate our strong momentum in serving customers and communities in the future.”
