JPMorgan Chase Penalized $566,082 for Allegedly Ignoring Regulator's Inquiries During Energy Crisis
JPMorgan Chase's German Subsidiary Fined by France's Energy Regulator
In a pronounced regulatory action, France's energy regulator has penalized JPMorgan Chase for failing to provide adequate information regarding a power market survey on soaring electricity prices. The fine, amounting to €500,000, is directed towards J.P. Morgan SE, the German unit of global financial services firm JPMorgan Chase.
The French Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE) called for responses from 44 market participants to comprehend the factors contributing to the surging electricity prices, which spiked in 2022. Thirty-nine participants responded to the requests for information, but JPMSE withheld some information, primarily focusing on the identity of its counterparties and clients engaged in transactions related to the survey topic.
JPMSE argued that the French regulator lacked the authority to issue binding requests to market players based in other European Union member states. In response, the CRE conducted an investigation and determined that the firm breached a law that permits the regulator to gather information from companies operating within the French electricity market.
The CRE's Disputes and Sanctions Settlement Committee (CoRDiS) has since sanctioned JPMSE with a hefty €500,000 fine - a first decision from the CoRDiS concerning a violation of the obligation to communicate necessary information for the fulfillment of the CRE's missions.
As of publication, JPMorgan Chase has not issued a public statement addressing the fine.
