NEW YORK, June 29 (Reuters) – Over the years JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has talked many times about succession – but a date to hand over the baton seemed elusive. This time, sources said, the plan is real.
Dimon plans to stay as CEO for up to three more years, with insiders hoping that the bank will name his successor – Troy Rohrbaugh or Doug Petno, the bank’s newly named co-presidents – ahead of that.
Rohrbaugh, who has been tasked with running JPMorgan’s massive consumer business, is seen as having the lead internally, according to the views of two senior executives at the firm. They added that Rohrbaugh’s promotion to the other side of the bank from the commercial and investment banking business suggests he’s the frontrunner to take over the top job from Dimon.
And when the time comes, Dimon would become executive chairman, a separate source familiar with the matter said, echoing what Dimon has said publicly and…

Jamie Dimon has run JPMorgan Chase for nearly two decades. On January 14, 2025, JPMorgan announced a sweeping executive reshuffle that restructures the top of the organization and puts the succession question front and center.
What actually changed at the top
The biggest move is the departure of Daniel Pinto, JPMorgan’s President and COO, who will retire by the end of 2026. Pinto has spent 40 years at the bank, the last stretch serving as Dimon’s closest deputy.
Pinto will formally hand off his operational duties in June 2025, giving successors roughly six months of overlap before he exits entirely.

For twenty years, Jamie Dimon has been the most powerful banker on the planet. He navigated JPMorgan Chase through the 2008 financial crisis, a global pandemic, regional bank collapses, and the most aggressive Federal Reserve tightening cycle in a generation. He outlasted rivals, silenced critics, and turned a $2.6 trillion institution into the envy of global finance. But inside JPMorgan’s Park Avenue headquarters, the question that has quietly dominated boardroom conversations for three years is now impossible to ignore: who comes after Dimon, and when?
Dimon, 70, dropped the clearest signal yet at JPMorgan’s annual investor day in May 2026, telling analysts that the bank’s senior leadership team was “more than ready” to operate independently—language interpreted by nearly …
Jamie Dimon's long-awaited succession plan finally takes shape at JPMorgan
Jamie Dimon's long-awaited succession plan finally takes shape at JPMorgan
After years of speculation,
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon’s
succession plan is reportedly becoming clearer, with insiders suggesting the banking giant is preparing for a leadership transition within the next few years.
Sources familiar with the matter say Dimon plans to remain CEO for up to three more years, with the company expected to choose his successor from newly appointed co-presidents Troy Rohrbaugh and Doug Petno. While no final decision has been made, executives inside the firm view Rohrbaugh as the leading contender.
Rohrbaugh’s recent move from
JPMorgan’s
commercial and investment banking division to oversee the company’s massive consumer business is seen as a key signal that he is being positioned for the top job. After stepping down as CEO, Dimon is expected to become executive chairman, a role he has previously discussed.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. moved Troy Rohrbaugh and Doug Petno into co-president roles on Thursday, reshaping its top leadership ranks after the sudden exit of consumer banking head Marianne Lake. The changes add fresh momentum to the succession discussion around Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon.
Shares of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) climbed nearly 3% on Thursday morning.
JPMorgan said the elevation of Troy Rohrbaugh and Doug Petno to co-presidents effectively places them in senior leadership positions, strengthening the internal bench as part of its ongoing succession planning process. The new roles place Rohrbaugh and Petno as leading internal contenders in the long-term succession lineup for Dimon.
