About Chase.com
The new JPMorgan Chase was created on July 1, 2004 upon completion of
the holding company merger between JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank One
Corporation. The mergers of the broker/dealer, credit card companies,
and lead banks will be completed over the next nine months.
The U.S. consumer and commercial banking businesses currently operate
under the Chase and Bank One brands. These businesses include retail
banking, credit card, home and auto finance, small business, middle
market and mid-corporate banking. Once the merger of the Chase and
Bank One businesses are complete, the Chase brand will be used to
serve 850,000 small businesses and 31,000 commercial businesses
through 2,300 branches in 17 states. It also will service 87 million
credit cards.
The retail and commercial banking businesses are headquartered in
Chicago; the card business is headquartered in Delaware.
Preparations for migration of Bank One products and services to the
new Chase brand have begun, with changes planned to begin to appear
first in credit cards. The company expects to begin changing bank
branches on a state-by-state basis in early 2005.
Currently, information about these capabilities can be found on
chase.com and bankone.com.
