JPMorgan Offered $1 Million Settlement Before Sexual Assault Claims Went Viral
Rana alleges repeated sexual abuse and retaliation, while JPMorgan rejected the claims after reviewing emails, phone records and witness statements.
- JPMorgan offered Chirayu Rana a $1 million settlement in March 2025 to avoid a sexual harassment lawsuit against executive Lorna Hajdini, but Rana declined the offer and later sought $11.75 million instead.
- Rana alleged that Hajdini sexually assaulted him, made repeated sexual advances, issued threats, and subjected him to racial abuse after joining JPMorgan's leveraged finance team in 2024.
- JPMorgan's internal investigation found no evidence supporting Rana's claims, and the bank stated the complainant declined to participate in the probe; both JPMorgan and Hajdini deny the allegations.
- Rana filed a renewed lawsuit in May 2025 including witness statements and claims of PTSD; the dispute is ongoing with calls for damages and changes to JPMorgan's workplace practices.
