摩根大通首席执行官杰米·戴蒙计划于周三会见英国财政大臣约翰·希利,对政府可能在10月28日预算中提高银行税的计划提出警告1。戴蒙指出,提高税收可能产生"不利后果",并暗示此举可能危及英国的投资和就业1。
目前英国银行面临28%的企业税率(高于标准25%),并需缴纳针对英国资产负债表的单独附加费1。英国四大银行过去五年的税前利润达2,000亿英镑,2025年3月年度缴税总额约为433亿英镑1。
戴蒙此前曾多次游说反对英国提高银行税,并威胁若政治环境恶化,将重新考虑摩根大通在伦敦金丝雀码头300万平方英尺塔楼项目的投资计划,该项目投资规模达30亿英镑1。摩根大通在英国共雇用23,000名员工,其中超过一半将入驻这座新塔楼1。
JPMorgan Chief Executive Jamie Dimon is set to meet with UK Chancellor John Hunt on Wednesday to warn against raising bank taxes, citing potential threats to investment and employment in the country 1. The discussion comes amid reports that Hunt is considering imposing windfall taxes on banks and oil companies as part of the October 28 budget 1.
Dimon has previously campaigned against higher UK bank levies and has threatened to abandon a £3 billion tower project at Canary Wharf in London if the political environment becomes unfavorable 1. The proposed development spans 3 million square feet and would house more than half of JPMorgan's 23,000 UK employees 1. Dimon has indicated that tax increases could produce "adverse consequences" and warned he might "pull back" from the London tower plan if anti-bank sentiment prevails 1.
The UK's major banks currently face a 28 percent corporate tax rate—higher than the standard 25 percent—along with separate surcharges on their UK balance sheets 1. Over the past five years, the country's four largest banks generated £200 billion in pre-tax profits, and they are projected to pay approximately £43.3 billion in combined taxes for the fiscal year ending March 2025 1.
