??? 杰米?戴蒙仍是華爾街“一哥”。

??? 周三下午，摩根大通（JPMorgan Chase）公布，2011年公司向首席執(zhí)行官杰米?戴蒙支付薪酬總計2,300萬美元，與上年持平。藉此，戴蒙連續(xù)第二年輕松成為了美國銀行業(yè)薪酬最高的首席執(zhí)行官——這一年，其他很多金融公司的首席執(zhí)行官都遭遇了減薪。例如，戴蒙的薪酬是高盛（Goldman Sachs）首席執(zhí)行官勞埃德?布萊克費恩的兩倍多，后者2011年的薪酬可能降至900萬美元，較上年下降近400萬美元。總薪酬最接近戴蒙的是富國銀行（Wells Fargo）的約翰?斯坦普，略低于2,000萬美元。

??? 戴蒙的2,300萬美元中有600萬是薪水和現金獎金。其余是限制性股票和期權，第一批將于2014年初授予。雖然戴蒙也是2011年摩根大通唯一未降薪的高管，但從其他高管的薪酬水平來看，華爾街的天價薪酬時代還遠未結束。比如，2011年摩根大通投資銀行主管詹姆斯?斯戴利的年薪為1,600萬美元（包括530萬美元的現金獎金）。摩根大通首席財務官道格拉斯?布朗斯坦2011年薪酬下降最明顯，已經跌至950萬美元，較上年減少了300萬美元。

????當然，戴蒙應該獲得獎賞。2011年，摩根大通實現凈利潤近190億美元，同比增長了近10%。而且，雖然2011年摩根大通股價下跌，但跌幅遠小于競爭對手。周三晚間，戴蒙在每年一度的致股東函中稱，他對公司的表現很滿意，但也指出，他認為最近實施的銀行業(yè)監(jiān)管法規(guī)，如多德-弗蘭克法案，將鉗制摩根大通和其他銀行的放貸能力。戴蒙打趣道，將來撰寫從金融危機復蘇的這一段歷史時，不妨就起名為“復蘇原本可以更好的”。看來他主要將責任推到了華盛頓的身上。

??? 戴蒙最不滿的監(jiān)管法規(guī)是強制要求摩根大通和其他具有“系統(tǒng)重要性”的大銀行所持壞賬準備金必須比最低監(jiān)管要求多出1/3。他將這項規(guī)定稱為“挖空心思”，認為這只會削弱銀行業(yè)的多元化程度，而不是相反。另外，戴蒙表示，他也不喜歡限制銀行業(yè)風險性交易的沃爾克法則以及（摩根大通大量參與的）衍生品交易法規(guī)。

??? 戴蒙稱，摩根大通正在逐步解決按揭貸款相關問題。他表示，如今摩根大通按揭貸款服務部門有23,000名員工負責解決和清理相關問題，遠高于2008年的6,800人。戴蒙表示，摩根大通等銀行與美國各州檢察長達成的260億美元和解協(xié)議將使該行免受與按揭貸款償付相關的任何訴訟。然而，參與此次和解的多位州檢察長表示，和解并不能消除所有與該行止贖違規(guī)行為相關的法律訴訟。

????Jamie Dimon is still Wall Street's top dog.

????JPMorgan Chase (JPM) disclosed on Wednesday afternoon that it paid its CEO $23 million in 2011. That was the same as last year, but it handily made Dimon, for the second year in a row, the best paid CEO in banking in 2011 - a year in which many other top financial executives saw their pay cut. Dimon's pay for instance, was more than double rival Goldman Sachs (GS) CEO Lloyd Blankfein, whose pay likely dropped to $9 million for 2011, down nearly $4 million from the year before. The only CEO who was even close to Dimon was Wells Fargo's (WFC) John Stumpf, who got a total pay package of just under $20 million.

????Dimon received $6 million of his $23 million in salary or cash bonus. The rest was paid in restricted stock and options, the first portion of which will start to vest in early 2014. And while Dimon was also the only JPMorgan executive who managed to avoid a pay cut in 2011, the pay of the other executives make it clear that big paydays are far from over on Wall Street. JPMorgan's investment banking chief James Staley, for instance, got paid $16 million for last year, including a $5.3 million cash bonus. JPMorgan's CFO Douglas Braunstein saw the biggest drop in pay to $9.5 million for 2011, down $3 million from the year before.

????There is clearly reason Dimon should be rewarded. The bank earned nearly $19 billion last year, up nearly 10% from the year. And while the company's shares fell last year, the company's stock dropped far less than rivals. In Dimon's annual letter to shareholders, which was also released on Wednesday night, Dimon said that he was happy with the firm's performance. But he also said that he believed recently imposed banking regulations like Dodd-Frank was holding back JPMorgan and other banks' ability to lend. Dimon quipped that when the history of the recovery from the financial crisis is written it will be titled "It Could Have Been Much Better." He seemed to lay most of the blame for that on Washington.

????Dimon's biggest regulatory beef is with a requirement that will force JPMorgan and other large banks that are deemed "Systemically Important" to hold as much as a third more capital than the minimum other banks have to hold to protect themselves against bad loans and other losses. He called the rule "contrived," and said that it would make the banks less diversified, not more so. Dimon said he also had problems with the Volcker rule, which limits banks' ability to make risky trades, and with rules that govern derivatives, an area that JPMorgan is big in.

????Dimon said JPMorgan was in the process of putting its mortgage-related problems behind it. He said JPMorgan now has 23,000 employees working on modifications and cleaning up the problems in its mortgage service business, up from 6,800 in 2008. Dimon said that the $26 billion recent settlement with the state attorney generals that JPMorgan struck along with other banks will release the bank from all further claims related to mortgage servicing problems. A number of state attorneys general involved in the settlement have said that the settlement would not eliminate all the legal claims against the bank related to foreclosure infractions.
