A JPMorgan Chase employee is facing charges of stealing tens of thousands of dollars from the bank’s clients while working as an associate banker at the trillion-dollar bank.
According to To the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency of the US Department of the Treasury, Shaira Ahmed embezzled $73,200 from JPMorgan Chase client accounts while working as an assistant banker at the Richmond Hill branch of the largest US bank, in New York.
“Due to the conduct in question, the defendant (Ahmed) engaged in violations of the law, which resulted in financial gain to the defendant and loss or risk of loss to the bank. The defendant’s misconduct demonstrated a breach of personal trust.”
The OCC says Ahmed embezzled the funds over a period of approximately two months between January 15, 2025, and March 22, 2025.
According to the OCC, Ahmed altered JPMorgan Chase records during the same period to conceal the theft. Ahmed was a banking assistant for JPMorgan Chase Bank at its Richmond Hill branch from July 8, 2024 to May 2, 2025.
Following the findings, the OCC now prohibits Ahmed from participating directly or indirectly in any way in the management of the affairs of U.S. banks and financial institutions indefinitely.
The former associate banker at JPMorgan Chase agreed to the OCC’s barring order without admitting or denying any wrongdoing.
