Artificial intelligence.
“NextList2025,” which selects the most buzz-worthy books and experiences of the holiday season, includes four museums, two wineries, four Broadway shows and 10 books. To build the list, the bank received more than 1,000 submissions from client advisors based on their clients’ tastes and interests. A review committee then researches the submissions and creates a list (eg Its popular JP Morgan Private Bank Summer Reading List)
Although the list is released by a private bank, it is used in JPMorgan divisions with affluent and affluent clients.
NextList’s main theme is “The Next Generation”, looking at how families can engage and inspire young investors as an unprecedented number of fortunes and businesses are set to be passed on in the coming years.
“A lot of our clients are focused on their next generation, whether they’re thinking about their family business or whether they’re thinking about their operating committee,” said Darin Oduyo, chief communications officer at JPMorgan Asset and Wealth Management. “We think about what’s next. We’re helping our clients think about their investments, their tax planning, the next great idea or the next great strategy.”
Here’s the full JP Morgan NextList2025, including the bank’s descriptions of recommended items. Entries have been lightly edited for style.
