JPMorgan Chase has created a new global role overseeing all junior bankers in an effort to better manage their workload after the death of a Bank of America associate in May forced Wall Street to examine how it treats its youngest employees.
The firm named Ryland McClendon its global investment banking associate and analyst leader in a memo sent this month, CNBC has learned.
The move shows how JPMorgan, the biggest American investment bank by revenue, is responding to the latest untimely death on Wall Street.
Later that month, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said his bank was examining what it could learn from the tragedy.
Exceptions can be made for live deals, said the person, who declined to be identified speaking about the internal policy.
