7yr ETF Efficiente Contingent Annual Income Note

North America Structured Investments


OVERVIEW

JPMorgan ETF Efficiente 5 Index (the “Index”) is a cross-asset strategy that aims to maximize returns per unit of risk by using portfolio optimization technology. The strategy uses the concept of the efficient frontier to select the optimum portfolio from a universe of 12 exchange-traded funds and a cash index, and aims to maximize returns while keeping the realized volatility at or below 5%. The strategy rebalances monthly and is non-discretionary. The Index levels incorporate an adjustment factor of 0.50% per annum which is deducted daily.

The notes offer an annual interest payment equal to the greater of [1.25%-1.50%] per annum or the annualized performance of the Index. Any payment on the notes is subject to the credit risk of JPMorgan Chase & Co.

May be appropriate for investors requiring asset and geographical diversification, and full return of principal at maturity.

Selected Risks

For each determination date, if the Cumulative Index Return is negative or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, your interest payment will equal [1.25%-1.50%] for that period. No guaranteed Interest Payment above the Minimum Interest Rate.

Payment on the notes at maturity is subject to the our credit risk. Therefore the value of the notes prior to maturity will be subject to changes in the market’s view of JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s creditworthiness.

Certain built-in costs are likely to adversely affect the value of the notes prior to maturity.

You aggregate interest payments may yield a lower return than the strategy performance over the term of the notes.

The Index Factor negatively impacts the Interest Rate over time, which can result in lower interest payments for increases in the strategy later in the term of the notes.

The strategy may not be successful. It may not outperform an alternative strategy related to the ETF Constituents. Changes in the value of strategy constituents may offset each other.

The strategy is subject to emerging markets risk, fixed income risks, currency exchange risk, real estate risk, small capitalization stock risk and the uncertain legal and regulatory regimes which govern commodities future contracts.

Your Interest Payments may be reduced upon the occurrence of a commodity hedging disruption event.

Lack of liquidity: JPMorgan Securities, LLC, acting as agent for the Issuer (and who we refer to as JPMS), intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. The price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in the secondary market, if at all, may result in a significant loss of your principal.

Our affiliate, JPMSL, is the index calculation agent and may adjust the strategy in a way that affects its level.

Potential Conflicts: we and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the notes, including acting as a calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the notes.

Many economic and market factors, such as index volatility, time to maturity, interest rates and creditworthiness of the Issuer, will impact the value of the notes prior to maturity.

The tax consequences of the notes maybe uncertain.

The risks identified above are not exhaustive. Please see “Risk Factors” in the applicable product supplement and “Selected Risk Considerations” in the applicable term sheet for additional information.
