Washington, D.C., Wednesday, 12 November 2025.
President Trump is hosting top Wall Street executives, including JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon, at a private White House dinner to discuss economic policies and strengthen ties with the financial sector.
Strengthening Financial Sector Ties
U.S. President Donald Trump is hosting a private dinner at the White House today, 12 November 2025, with top executives from the financial industry, including JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and Nasdaq’s Adena Friedman. This meeting is part of Trump’s broader strategy to engage with corporate leaders to discuss key economic policies and potential collaborations aimed at enhancing market stability and growth [1][2][3].
Focus on Economic Policies and Investments
The dinner, which also includes leaders from Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, and Morgan Stanley, is expected to cover the administration’s efforts to strengthen U.S. capital markets and rebuild critical domestic supply chains. These initiatives are seen as vital to national security and economic resilience, particularly in sectors like manufacturing, defense, aerospace, and energy [1][2][4].
JPMorgan’s Role in Economic Resilience
JPMorgan, the largest bank in the U.S., recently announced a $1.5 trillion investment program aimed at industries central to national security. This program includes up to $10 billion in direct equity and venture-capital investments in U.S. companies crucial for economic resilience. The meeting is likely to explore how such investments could be aligned with the administration’s policies [1][4].
Implications for the Financial Sector
This dinner represents Trump’s continued engagement with the financial sector as he seeks to align business interests with his economic agenda. By leveraging private-sector investment, the administration aims to secure the U.S.’s position in high-tech manufacturing and energy supply chains. The outcomes of these discussions could have significant implications for both domestic and global financial markets [2][5].
