A leading Democratic senator has written to the boss of JP Morgan to request clarification on the bank’s contact with the child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Elizabeth Warren, the top Democrat on the senate banking committee, wrote to Jamie Dimon last week to ask if he took advice from Epstein while lobbying against a UK tax on banker bonuses, in a letter published by the committee on Monday. “It is critical that Congress and the American public fully understand the extent of any interactions the bank and you had with Epstein,” the senator wrote.

Dimon, who has been chair and chief executive of the largest US bank for two decades, told a court in 2023 he had never met Epstein and had not heard the late sex offender’s name until his 2019 arrest.
