Bill Harrison CEO of JP Morgan Chase
Today we saw the Enron hearing conducted by a Senate subcommittee at
which three of our employees testified on behalf of the firm. In this
highly politicized environment, they stood tall. I want to thank them
for their professionalism in their testimony, and I believe we should
all be especially aware of these points:
