Alternative Realities: Investing in National Security

Last year, JPMorganChase announced the launch of the Security and Resiliency Initiative, a 10-year, $1.5 trillion plan to facilitate, finance, and invest in industries critical to national security. With an initial $10 billion in direct equity investments, the initiative aims to help select companies accelerate growth, drive innovation, and strengthen strategic manufacturing.

As Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorganChase, put it, “It has become painfully clear that the United States has allowed itself to become too reliant on unreliable sources of critical minerals, products, and manufacturing – all of which are essential for our national security.” In this episode, Aaron Mulvihill is joined by Jay Horine, Global Head of the Security and Resiliency Initiative, to discuss the priority areas that the initiative will be focusing on and the role that private companies play in making innovation happen.
