The firm's net interest income for the quarter was $23,405 million, up from $22,726 million in the same period last year.
The provision for credit losses significantly increased to $3,111 million from $1,384 million in Q3 2023, reflecting a more cautious approach in credit risk management.

The firm's return on equity (ROE) was reported at 16%, a decrease from 18% in the previous year, which suggests a slight decline in profitability relative to equity. The overhead ratio improved to 53% from 55%, indicating enhanced operational efficiency.
In terms of regional performance, total international net revenue increased by 9% to $1,654 million, with notable growth in the Asia-Pacific region at 12%. North America also saw a 9% increase in net revenue, contributing to the overall growth in total net revenue.
Asset & Wealth Management reported a 9% increase in total net revenue, reaching $5,439 million, driven by a 17% increase in asset management fees. However, net income for this segment decreased by 5% to $1,351 million, reflecting higher noninterest expenses which rose by 16%.
The firm's liquidity position remains robust with approximately $1.5 trillion in liquidity sources, including $868 billion in high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) and $608 billion in unencumbered marketable securities. This strong liquidity position supports the firm's ability to manage potential market risks and credit exposures effectively.
Overall, JPMorgan Chase & Co. demonstrated solid financial performance in Q3 2024, with growth in net revenue and a strong liquidity position, despite challenges in credit provisions and a slight decline in net income.
