The trader at the centre of JP Morgan’s notorious London Whale trades has broken his silence about the 2012
investments that cost him his job and led to $920m in fines for the Wall Street bank. Bruno Iksil wrote a letter

bank’s chief investment office (CIO) in London that eventually lost JP Morgan $6.2bn and led to penalties from
four different regulators.
