The US government has dropped its last threat of legal action against two former JPMorgan staff embroiled in the so-called London Whale losses that cost the bank $6.2bn in 2012.
The Securities and Exchange Commission said in a court filing seen by Financial News that it had voluntarily dismissed a civil case against Javier Martin-Artajo and Julien Grout.
