How do the upside leverage and maximum return work on the JPMorgan AMJB notes?
If the Final Value of the S&P 500 Index is above its Initial Value, the notes pay $1,000 plus 2.00 times the Index Return, subject to the Maximum Return.

The notes include a 10.00% Buffer Amount. If the Index ends at or above 90.00% of its Initial Value, investors receive at least their $1,000 principal.

What credit and liquidity risks are associated with the JPMorgan AMJB notes?
Payments on the notes are unsecured obligations of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., so investors face the credit risk of both entities.

Morgan Securities LLC is willing to buy, which may be lower than the original issue price.
