A senior JPMorgan Chase executive has been accused in a lawsuit of sexually assaulting and harassing a junior employee, according to reports.
The case has been filed in a New York court by a male employee who alleges repeated sexual coercion and workplace harassment beginning in 2024. He claims he was also subjected to threatening behaviour and racially charged remarks during the period.
The complaint further states that after he raised concerns internally, he faced retaliation, including restricted system access and eventual termination from his role.
The accused executive, Lorna Hajdini, has denied all allegations. JPMorgan has also rejected the claims, stating that an internal investigation did not find evidence supporting the complaint.
The matter remains under legal review, with proceedings ongoing and no judicial findings yet.
