Separately, I have heard a lot of bad things about Chase, and experienced some as well over the years. I'd be hesitant to open up an account there from a customer service perspective, although I assume the deposits would be safe at such a large mega-bank.
Private/Relationship banking might be lackluster with JPM depending on your account size.
Idk if I'd trust a non-FDIC insured bank and any bank that isn't Basel 1/2 compliant so most Neobanks seem too risky. They anyhow prefer to use state chartered banks which tend to be significantly more brittle than nationally chartered banks.
I’m not sure what to do about my startup’s account though. Chase doesn’t seem to understand startups anyway — you’re a small business or a big business. For the company’s money I want someone who gives a shit.
For your startup, check out HSBC as well then - a lot of SVB and FRB staff specialized in tech commercial banking switched there as well.
Also maybe try and find where your former SVB banker with whom you had a relationship went - they could help with the transition and give you the care needed.
True, I am not wealthy enough for Chase to care, but they send me marcom as if I had zero understanding of finance, to the point of it being offensive.
I am in the process of moving my personal accounts out, to another bank who is willing to put me in the correct cohort (I realized I’m paying them ~$500/year for that btw. Which is very little considering the costs). My mortgage would stay at Chase, because of interest rates, and I’ll have to keep getting marcom that assumes I think of it as a IOU and not a financial instrument.
