Buried in a roughly 200-page quarterly filing from JPMorgan Chase last month were eight words that underscore how contentious the bank’s relationship with the government has become.

The lender disclosed that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau could punish JPMorgan for its role in Zelle, the giant peer-to-peer digital payments network. The bank is accused of failing to kick criminal accounts off its platform and failing to compensate some scam victims, according to people who declined to be identified speaking about an ongoing investigation.

In response, JPMorgan issued a thinly veiled threat: “The firm is evaluating next steps, including litigation.”

Title is original from site.

Arguably a better title:Why JPMorgan Chase is prepared to sue the U.S. government over regulation

Lol they'll charge customers more if they get regulated. But that means they think customers would pay it, which means they think customers could be paying it now but aren't, which means they aren't generating as much revenue now for their shareholders as possible, which makes them a Bad Corporation.
