US Treasury's Bessent, China's He to meet on Sunday at JPMorgan headquarters

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and China's Vice Premier He Lifeng are set to meet at JPMorgan Chase headquarters in New York on Sunday, according to a source. The meeting, scheduled for 10:30 am ET, will cover topics such as AI security, trade, and other economic matters. The gathering occurs just prior to President Donald Trump hosting Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House on Thursday and Friday.

JPMorgan Chase, while not partaking in the meeting itself, graciously offered its headquarters building as a venue due to heightened Manhattan security in anticipation of the upcoming United Nations General Assembly. Bessent had previously invited Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, to the G20 finance leaders meeting hosted by the US Treasury in Asheville, North Carolina.

Dimon, among other American CEOs, is slated to attend a state dinner for Xi at the White House the following week, but he did not accompany Trump to Beijing in May for their last meeting.
