JPMorganChase has unveiled a major expansion of its national investment strategy through the launch of its new Security and Resiliency Initiative — a $1.5 trillion, 10-year plan aimed at strengthening U.S. industrial and economic security. The initiative identifies shipbuilding as one of 27 key sectors to receive focused financial and advisory support, underscoring the growing importance of maritime industries to national defense and infrastructure resilience, according to PortNews.

As part of the initiative, JPMorganChase plans to provide financing, advisory services, and selective direct investments to companies operating in critical sectors such as shipbuilding and related manufacturing. The program is intended to enhance the durability of supply chains and expand domestic capacity in industries vital to transportation and defense. The firm previously targeted $1 trillion in financing over the next decade for critical industries, but with this expanded focus, the total could increase by up to 50%, reaching $1.5 trillion. The move reflects JPMorganChase’s commitment to reinforcing U.S. economic security while supporting the modernization of its maritime and defense infrastructure.
