JP Morgan is building up equities and other high margin products, but cheaply. Unless you speak Japanese or Mandarin, you are not going to ride the wave with English only. Tokyo chopped a lot of big ticket expats in 1998/99 to help defend any takeover by saving cash. Private Equity is really happening though. |

Seems like Chase would be a huge regional player if their current bid for Robert Flemings (which controls Jardine Flemings) is successful. That would really boost their Asian operation, which was considerable to begin with.
How much do you folks know about JF? It's pretty much non-existent in US, it seems...
