JPMorgan Chase said on Jan. 7 it has appointed Indian-origin Sri Kosaraju as a global chair of investment banking to support the firm's healthcare industry vertical.

The move comes as JPMorgan ramps up its investment banking push amid heightened dealmaking appetite, having poached senior bankers from Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank in Oct. 2025.

Dealmaking is expected to remain strong in 2026, after a near record-breaking period for mergers and acquisitions despite a turbulent spring last year.

Kosaraju will rejoin JPMorgan from Inscripta, where he most recently served as CEO. He has previously spent 16 years at the bank, helping build its healthcare franchise.

His appointment follows the recent hiring of Jerry Lee as global chair of investment banking with a healthcare focus, as JPMorgan continues to bring in senior talent to expand its global banking franchise.

In his new role, Kosaraju will be based in San Francisco and will report to Filippo Gori and John Simmons, co‑heads of global banking.
