First Chicago NBD's merger list
[edit]Mid-America Federal is on this list, but I wonder WHICH Mid-America Federal this might apply to. Mid-America Federal Savings & Loan dropped the "Savings & Loan" from its name in the 1980s (after the S&L scandals of that decade) and renamed itself into MidAmerica Bank in the 1990s. It's still an independent entity, with a parent of Mid-America Federal Bancorp (and traded under MAFB), and corporate offices in Clarendon Hills, Illinois. The bank is not large, and has taken over a couple of other Chicago area banks, but is a decent regional "player" in northeast Illinois and southeast Wisconsin. --JohnDBuell 01:14, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- It's been a couple of weeks, and I've seen no proof that Mid-America Bank/Mid-America Federal (at least the one I know from Chicago's suburbs) got absorbed by First Chicago and later Bank One and then Chase, so I've removed it. --JohnDBuell 21:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Who Took Over Whom?
[edit]Since when does the acquired company take over senior management from the acquiring company? Almost everyone in JP Morgan Chase's senior management were replaced by Bank One management, including Jamie Dimon, the current chairman. Other than the retention of the JP Morgan Chase corporate name, what was kept? If I take over your firm, I don't fire myself and make you the head of the company, do I? In the game of corporate takeovers, how does the loser become the champion? Stevenmitchell (talk) 07:36, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- According to "conventional wisdom" the answer to this question is that it was felt by Chase management that Bank One's people had a much better handle on the retail banking business while Chase's people knew the investment banking business. It was recognized that the retail side of the business was vitally important to the merged entity. Bank One's people were put in charge of the retail side of the newly merged company and, indeed, many Bank One retail customers felt that the merger was seamless and were not disturbed by the "feel" of dealing with the merged company. As for Jamie Dimon, if memory serves correctly (and the article on Jamie Dimon in Wikipedia is not clear on this), he rose to the position of Bank One's CEO out of Bank One's investment arm, such as it might have been, after leaving Citigroup, and his previous investment experience may explain why he was chosen for the leadership of JPMorganChase.
