JPMorgan Eyes Top Rival Bankers for India Expansion Drive

  • JPMorgan Chase & Co. is actively seeking a new senior country officer to lead its expanding operations in India.
  • The search, handled by Heidrick & Struggles, aims to replace Kaustubh Kulkarni, who joined Citigroup Inc. last year.
  • High-profile candidates approached include Sonjoy Chatterjee (Goldman Sachs), Pramit Jhaveri (formerly Citigroup), and Shanti Ekambaram (ex-Kotak Mahindra Bank).
  • Chatterjee and Jhaveri have reportedly ruled themselves out; Ekambaram is considering non-executive roles after April.
  • The caliber of candidates reflects CEO Jamie Dimon's ambition to significantly boost JPMorgan's presence in India, a key growth market.

Why It Matters: JPMorgan is aggressively pursuing top talent to spearhead its ambitious expansion plans in India.
