Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase to contribute $1,000 to Trump Accounts
Read Original Source
Big companies are heeding President Trump's call to support his "Trump Accounts," a new savings plan he said will make life more affordable for Americans. Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase are pledging to make a matching $1,000 contribution to their employees who open a Trump Account, a savings plan announced by the White House last year for children born during President Trump's second term in office.
AI Summary
Main Idea: Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase said they will each give $1,000 to eligible employees who open new Trump Accounts, backing President Trump’s new child savings plan.
Key Points:
- Trump Accounts are tax-advantaged savings accounts for children born in the U.S. from Jan. 1, 2025, through Dec. 31, 2028.
- The federal government will seed each eligible account with $1,000, invested in the stock market.
- Bank of America will match the government’s $1,000 for eligible workers and also allow pre-tax contributions to children’s accounts.
- JPMorgan Chase said it will also match the $1,000, and Trump urged more employers to join the program.
Impact on the People

Trump Accounts may widen debate over government spending because taxpayers fund the $1,000 seed money while many families and workers will not qualify.
Positive Impact
Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase matching deposits could help eligible employees build savings for children born in 2025 to 2028.
