JPMorgan Chase's roots go all the way back to 1799, when its earliest predecessor institution, The Manhattan Co., was founded. The Manhattan Co.'s founders included Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. Later, tycoon J. Pierpont Morgan joined with Philadelphia banker Anthony Drexel to form a private merchant banking house called Drexel, Morgan & Co. in New York City in 1871.

The institution later became J.P. Morgan & Co. and went public in 1940. After merging with The Chase Manhattan Corp. in 2000, the company became JPMorgan & Chase.

Today, JPMorgan Chase remains a publicly traded company, which means it's owned by its shareholders. It trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker "JPM." Since it's publicly traded, anyone with a brokerage account can invest in the stock and become a part-owner of JPMorgan Chase.

How to invest in JPMorgan Chase

It's easy to invest money in JPMorgan Chase or any other publicly traded company if you have a brokerage account. To hold shares in JPMorgan Chase, just follow these steps:

Open your brokerage account: Log in to your brokerage account where you handle your investments.
Search for the stock: Enter the ticker or company name into the search bar to bring up the stock's trading page.
Decide how many shares to buy: Consider your investment goals and how much of your portfolio you want to allocate to this stock.
Select order type: Choose between a market order to buy at the current price or a limit order to specify the maximum price you're willing to pay.
Submit your order: Confirm the details and submit your buy order.
Review your purchase: Check your portfolio to ensure your order was filled as expected and adjust your investment strategy accordingly.

But before you invest, make sure you understand the fundamentals of investing in banking stocks. Bank stocks are somewhat less risky now compared to a couple of decades ago due to increased regulation and required stress testing that assesses how banks will fare in adverse conditions. However, bank stocks aren't a good option if you're looking for a recession-resistant investment, as declining consumer spending and increased defaults typically hurt bank profits during a downturn.
