John Dougherty:

The most special thing about the Philadelphia business community and just the clients I work with on a day-to-day basis is just their passion. I mean, similar to the Philadelphia sports fans, they're passionate about the teams they support, and I think the business owners are equally passionate about the businesses that they run. I think, passionate people generally have a strategic priority to understand where they want to go and where they want to take their business, and hopefully J.P. Morgan helps facilitate that.

Liz Kinkler:

When businesses are intimidated by the size and scale of J.P. Morgan, I often will explain our local coverage model. So, while J.P. Morgan is an international bank with international resources, we do have a localized market coverage model where people like myself who sit in our center city office, we cover clients all within driving distance because we really value having that in-person connection.

Brian Kronowitz:

As a middle market commercial banker, I work with companies who have deep roots in the region and have been in Philadelphia for numerous decades. Yet on the backdrop of mid-sized companies is also a growing tech and start-up scene, which creates a lot of opportunity for middle-market companies to achieve new growth opportunities and new collaborations with the growing tech and start-up scene in Philadelphia.

If there's a business owner that's watching this and is interested in potentially working with J.P. Morgan, just note that we have a plethora of expertise, technology, and support that will be able to help grow your business to where you want to be.
