- Pays: quarterly — 170 dividends in our record since 1984.
- The scar: 2009 — like nearly every big bank, JPMorgan slashed its dividend in the financial crisis. The record shows the drop and the decade-long rebuild.
- The streak since: annual payouts have risen 15 consecutive full years in our data — the entire post-crisis era.
- Current rate: $1.50 per quarter — $6.00 over the trailing twelve months, about 1.7% of the recent ~$356.69 price.
- The catch unique to banks: big-bank dividends are regulator-gated — payouts must clear the Fed's annual stress tests, which is both a discipline and a ceiling.
Bank dividends are a different species from industrial ones: they were forced down almost universally in 2009 regardless of streak, and their growth since runs through an annual regulatory checkpoint. JPM's 15-year rebuild is the strongest record in the group — and the 2009 chapter is why no bank carries a 50-year streak.
Each point is one JPM dividend since 1984. The 2009 cliff and the fifteen-year staircase since are the whole modern banking story in one line.

Each point is one payment; the line ends at the most recent payout. The table below totals them by year.
- Trailing 12 months: $6.00 per share across 4 payments — up 13% from $5.30 in the 12 months before (split-adjusted, in today's share terms). What a change like that does to your income →
- Current pace: recent payments annualize to $5.80 — 3% below the trailing figure. When those two disagree, the trailing yield is quoting the past. Live cut & raise board →
- Share price, same 12 months: up 22% (dividends excluded) — income and principal are one story. Erosion Index →
- Record: 171 payments over 42 years; the largest single payment was $1.50 (Oct 2025), split-adjusted.

"Next expected" is estimated from JPM's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.

The 2009 crisis reset nearly every bank dividend in America, JPMorgan's included — which is why the strongest bank in the country carries a 15-year streak instead of a 50-year one. What the record shows since is steady, stress-test-approved growth to today's $1.50 quarterly, with the trailing year at $6.00 per share. The yield stays modest near 1.7% because the market prices JPM as a compounder first and a payer second.
For financial-sector income with opposite risk profiles, compare ARCC (a BDC paying 9%+ with credit-cycle exposure) or PFF (bank-issued preferreds). The compare tool puts the common stock against either.

When Is JPM's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
JPM pays quarterly — usually going ex-dividend in early January, April, July, and October. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from JPM's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
Forty-Two Years, One Cliff, One Long Rebuild
Our JPMorgan record runs from 1984 through today's $1.50 quarterly — 170 payments. Its defining feature is the 2009 cliff, when the financial crisis forced dividend cuts across American banking regardless of individual strength. Everything after is the rebuild: 15 consecutive rising annual totals in our data, carrying the payout to $6.00 per share over the trailing year — roughly 1.7% of the recent $356.69 price.
The Stress-Test Dividend
Since the crisis, every big-bank payout runs through the Federal Reserve's annual examination before it reaches shareholders. That regime shapes the record visible above: raises arrive in confident, measured steps rather than dramatic jumps, because each one is effectively pre-approved capital planning. For holders it cuts both ways — a discipline that makes the current payment unusually secure, and a ceiling that keeps the yield from ever getting generous.
Reading JPM as an Income Holding
It's a total-return stock with a respectable dividend habit, not an income engine — the yield trails even JNJ's. Investors wanting real financial-sector income usually step down the capital structure (PFF's preferreds) or out the risk curve (ARCC's BDC lending) — trades the compare tool prices instantly. The live calendar tracks the next ex-date.
