FAQ
What are the JPMorgan AMJB Uncapped Dual Directional Buffered Return Enhanced Notes?
They are unsecured structured notes issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC, guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co., that pay at maturity based on the lesser performing of the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index, with leveraged upside and a 15.00% downside buffer.
How do the AMJB notes determine the payment at maturity?
If the final level of each index is above its initial level, the payment equals $1,000 plus $1,000 times the lesser performing index return multiplied by an upside leverage factor of at least 1.14. If both indices are at or above their initial levels or down by up to the 15.00% buffer, the payment adds $1,000 times the absolute return of the lesser performing index, capped at a 15.00% gain in that downside scenario.
What is the downside risk for investors in these JPMorgan AMJB notes?
If the final value of either index is more than 15.00% below its initial level, investors lose 1% of principal for every 1% the lesser performing index falls beyond the 15.00% buffer, up to a maximum loss of 85.00% of principal, receiving as little as $150.00 per $1,000 note in extreme declines.
Do the AMJB notes pay interest or dividends during their term?
No. The notes do not pay periodic interest, and investors do not receive dividends on the stocks in either index. All value comes from the single payment at maturity, which depends on index performance and the credit of the issuer and guarantor.
What is the estimated value of the JPMorgan AMJB notes at issuance?
If the notes priced on the date referenced, the estimated value would be about $975.70 per $1,000 principal amount note, and the final estimated value at pricing will not be less than $900.00 per $1,000. The difference from the price to public reflects selling commissions, structuring, and hedging costs.
What credit risks and liquidity considerations apply to the AMJB notes?
Payments depend on the credit of JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and its guarantor JPMorgan Chase & Co.. The notes are not bank deposits and are not FDIC insured. They will not be listed on any exchange, and any secondary market price is expected to be lower than the original issue price and driven mainly by dealer bids.
Which indices are referenced by the JPMorgan AMJB notes?
The notes reference the Russell 2000® Index, which tracks smaller U.S. companies, and the S&P 500® Index, a large-cap U.S. equity benchmark. The payoff is based on the lesser performing of these two indices over the investment period.
