WSJ-
J.P. Morgan Chase JPM & Co. has told an independent monitor it has provided more than half of the $4 billon in consumer aid mandated under its 2013 mortgage-securities settlement with the Justice Department.
The bank calculates it should receive about $2.25 billion of credit for such actions as cutting mortgage debts for struggling homeowners and lending to low-income home buyers, according to a report released Tuesday by the independent monitor of the bank’s $13 billion settlement.
Joseph Smith, the former North Carolina bank regulator hired to make sure J.P. Morgan follows the consumer-relief terms of the settlement, still needs to validate J.P. Morgan’s calculations before the bank can get credit.
