House Oversight Releases Staley-Epstein Testimony Transcripts

Transcripts released by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on August 27, 2026, reveal that former JPMorgan Chase executive Jes Staley repeatedly shared confidential, market-sensitive bank information with the late financier Jeffrey Epstein and advocated to retain his account following Epstein's 2008 conviction for illegal sexual activity. Staley provided the testimony during a voluntary, closed-door interview with the committee on July 24, 2026, as part of its investigation into Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
