JPMorgan’s revenue on an adjusted basis, increased 8% year-over-year in 3Q to $30.06 billion. Net interest income grew 2% to $14.4 billion in the recently ended quarter, driven by continued balance sheet growth and mix, offset by the impact of rates.

Consumer & Community Banking segment had strong deposit and client investment asset growth. Consumer lending businesses benefited from the company’s continued investments and a favorable environment for borrowers, which helped drive healthy volumes in Home Lending and Auto and strong loan growth in Card.

In the Corporate and Investment Banking segment, Markets revenue surged 14% to $5.1 billion. Fixed Income Markets revenue was $3.6 billion, up 25% compared to the prior year which reflected less favorable market conditions. Third quarter 2019 results were driven by strong client activity across products. Equity Markets revenue was $1.5 billion, down 5% compared to a strong prior year, reflecting lower revenues in derivatives.

“In the U.S. economy, GDP growth has slowed slightly. The consumer remains healthy with growth in wages and spending, combined with strong balance sheets and low unemployment levels. This is being offset by weakening business sentiment and capital expenditures mostly driven by increasingly complex geopolitical risks, including tensions in global trade,” said CEO Jamie Dimon.
