JPMorgan Chase & Co today said it has received Reserve Bank’s approval to open three more branches in the country.

The bank will open new branches at New Delhi, Devanahalli (near Bengaluru) and Paranur (near Chennai) in the next few months, it said in a statement.

“We are seeing an increasing level of cross-location and cross-border activity among our clients as they capture business opportunities driven by the country’s economic growth.

These branches will further enhance our capability to better serve our clients in India and overseas,” JPMorgan Chase Bank India MD and CEO Madhav Kalyan said.

JPMorgan will provide all existing products and services through these new branches, including cash management, trade finance and foreign-currency payments.

At present, the bank serves its clients from Mumbai branch.

“Our strategy is to follow our clients’ priorities. The expansion endorses our long-term commitment to India, a key market for JPMorgan, as well as for many of our clients,” JPMorgan South & South East Asia CEO Kalpana Morparia said.
