Whoa, talk about kooky. What kind of background does Tony Blair have? I need to check.
Wikipedia says that he has a background in law, so that may be the reason he is qualified to be a “senior advisor” at JPMorgan Chase. Hey, he might want to tell them not to lend money to people who can’t pay it back. Just saying.
Former British prime minister Tony Blair is expected on Thursday to join U.S. bank JPMorgan Chase & Co Inc (JPM.N) as a senior adviser, according to a person familiar with the situation.
JPMorgan declined to comment. The Financial Times in London first reported the move on its Web site, saying it would be the first of a series positions Blair expects to take in the private sector.
I think this one is an odd fit, because he has a history in law, then politics, and no finance experience. One might argue that, as Prime Minister, he gained knowledge over the years, but who knows. Good luck on your new endeavor, Tony.
