Please read and review this analysis of the case utilizing IRAC method of case analysis. Issue JP Morgan Chase permitted traders in its London office to allocate magnified values to transactions and cover up huge losses as they continued to explode. Two traders could face criminal charges for fabricating records to cover up losses. JP Morgan’s charge to the $6 billion oversight in trading loss is the first for a main company since the Securities and Exchange Commission revised its practice of letting firms pay fines without admitting fault. An admission by JPMorgan could provide a pattern for pursuing other admissions in Wall Street cases. The Justice Department is aggressive in getting JPMorgan to admit that from 2005 to 2007, it sold mortgage securities to investors without fully warning of the risks. By wanting the bank to admit some responsibility, officials hope it will caution other corporations to double check before taking...

...Business Analysis Part II Megan Exantus MGT/521 September 28, 2011 Laurie Ryan Business Analysis Financial statements are made to show a company’s financial position, performance, and changes that will be made throughout the company that may deter any economic decisions. Financial statements should be understandable, relevant, reliable and comparable. Reported assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses are directly related to an organization's financial position (Baird, 2007). We will now evaluate the financial health of Bank of America and how it looks compared to previous years and make a prediction on coming years. This should demonstrate the financial strength and weakness of the company. We will also compare Bank of America’s financial statements to JPMorgan & Chase and Wells Fargo to see how each bank compares relatively to the other financially. After review of each of the financial statements, much of which will be gained by looking at the pros and cons of each statement, such as what strategies are used from these statements in moving forward. Not only will we establish a broader range on how these banks really look financially, we will investigate their approaches on a technological level and how they differentiate from another and how they relate. Globalization has taken over a wide range of businesses nationwide, we will take a step closer into seeing how it has affected Bank...

...Accounting Information Systems and Computer Audit & Controls Kevin G. Bullock Wilfrid Laurier University Alexander Brik - 110882860 Aman Smagh – 110257570 Jack Welton – 100791540 Zaid Iqbal – 110184970 Synopsis of the Case In April and May of 2012, JP Morgan Chase & Co. incurred major trading losses of $6 billion dollars. However, JPMorgan’s financial statements represented these losses as only $2 billion. The losses were the result of risky bets taken in the credit markets by a trader named Bruno Iksil. Iksil worked at JP Morgan’s London office, and made extremely large trades in the credit markets. Because of this, Iksil earned the nickname “London Whale,” and this entire scandal is referred to as the “London Whale Scandal.” In the worlds of finance and gambling, whales are people who “play” with very large sums of money. This debacle started in JP Morgan’s Chief Investment Office (CIO), in the London branch of the firm. CIO’s are central to any major bank. Their purpose is to invest the difference between deposits the bank has on hand from its customers and the credit lent out to borrowers. This difference is called the bank’s reserves. With $1.1 billion in deposits and $750 billion on loan, JP Morgan’s CIO handled assets in excess of $350 billion. In theory, CIO’s are supposed to keep the reserves safe and to protect them against inflation. However, in reality, most CIOs will enter into more risky investments in order to earn higher returns. This is what...
