JPM CIB - Innovation and FinTech Partnerships Role
Hi all -- I'm currently at a large U.S.-based buy-side firm based in Hong Kong and am looking at the below role at JPM CIB also in HK. Would anyone there know where in the bank this role fits exactly and who might lead it? I'm having difficulty finding anything online.
To me this seems a bit different than Goldman's Principal Strategic Investments group that is in the Securities business and invests in tech startups on behalf of GS. This JPM role does not really seem to be an investment role, but anyone's insight is much appreciated!
