JPMorgan is seeking a single settlement to resolve all claims from federal and state agencies over its mortgage-related liabilities stemming from the bust in house prices.
WASHINGTON: JPMorgan Chase & Co has reached a
tentative $13 billion agreement with the US Justice Department to settle a range of mortgage issues, a source familiar with the talks said on Saturday.
The tentative deal does not release the bank from criminal liability, a factor that had been a major sticking point in the discussions, the source said.
As part of the deal, the bank will continue to cooperate in criminal inquiries into certain individuals involved in the conduct at issue, the source, who declined to be identified.
