Jan 5 (Reuters) – J.P. Morgan said on Monday it launched a new advisory unit to serve a select group of clients and widen their access to expertise beyond traditional dealmaking and financing.
The investment advisory services market is expected to expand in 2026 as technology adoption, geopolitical shifts and macroeconomic uncertainty drive demand for specialized expertise on market-moving trends.
The newly formed Special Advisory Services unit will advise clients on themes including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, digital assets, geopolitics, healthcare, supply chains and sustainability.
Global chair of investment banking Liz Myers will lead the unit, the bank said. Myers has more than 30 years of experience at J.P. Morgan and previously ran its global equity capital markets business.
J.P. Morgan said the unit will focus on long-standing, top-tier clients, including companies that want the bank as lead adviser on initial public offerings, established clients pursuing transformational deals, and mid-sized firms aiming to make J.P. Morgan their primary banking partner.
