From Wall Street to Washington: The Push to Investigate Jes Staley's Epstein Ties In The U.S. (10/28/25)

In Washington, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has officially urged the nation’s top banking regulators — the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) — to launch public and private investigations into Staley’s conduct while he was at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and later Barclays PLC. Warren’s letter alleges that Staley helped shield Epstein’s access to the banking system by intervening when internal red flags about Epstein’s transactions were raised and that despite the banks settling for large sums in sister cases, Staley has so far avoided U.S. accountability

At the same time, U.S. lawsuits are advancing against Barclays and Staley over alleged investor mis-representation. A judge in Los Angeles denied Staley’s request to dismiss a class-action claim that the bank and Staley misled investors about the true nature of his ties to Epstein after his arrest in 2019. The U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) earlier found that Staley misled regulators by approving a letter stating his relationship with Epstein was not “close,” whereas email evidence showed they were in contact well beyond what the letter claimed.
