JPMorgan2026-08-03 16:41:15JPMorgan commits $750 billion to housing and community development by 2035JPMorgan said on March 31 that it is launching the "American Dream" plan, with a commitment to direct $750 billion toward housing and community development by 2035. The bank said the new target is more than $200 billion above its previous commitment. CEO Jamie Dimon is leading the initiative, which covers six areas including small-business lending, housing affordability, and financial health. As part of the plan, $80 billion has been earmarked for small-business lending over the next decade. JPMorgan said the effort will expand into high-need markets including Alabama, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. Combined with the bank’s earlier $1.5 trillion "security and resilience" plan, its total community investment commitments now exceed $2 trillion. According to CryptoBriefing, the new initiative does not include cryptocurrency or blockchain technology, even though JPMorgan has previously developed blockchain experiments such as the Onyx platform and JPM Coin.1780
