10 Feb 2026 J.P. Morgan SEJ.P. Morgan SE: €12.18m ECB penalty for misreporting risk-weighted assets EU levelDisclosure and reporting obligations €12.2m

The ECB imposed two penalties on J.P. Morgan SE: 10,150,000 EUR because the bank misclassified corporate exposures in 15 quarterly reports (end-2019 to mid-2023) and reported risk-weighted assets for credit risk that were too low, and 2,030,000 EUR because it wrongly excluded transactions from the calculation of credit valuation adjustment (CVA) risk in 21 reporting periods (2019 to 2024). The ECB regarded both as seriously negligent, caused by evident deficiencies in internal processes; as a result, the reported capital ratios were too high.

What organisations can take from it

Classification of exposures for regulatory reporting needs effective controls; otherwise incorrect capital ratios become a sanctions risk.
