But the US bank, the top US bank by assets, wants to focus on its new service in the UK for now, which includes a deposit account, and does not detail potential expansion plans.

JPMorgan Chase has never previously offered its retail banking services outside the United States, which account for about half of its revenue. But the establishment already provides investment banking, brokerage and wealth management services in several countries.

The US banking giant also announced in June the acquisition of British automated investment advisory firm Nutmeg to develop its international digital wealth management offering, particularly in the United Kingdom.
