The special purpose acquisition vehicle will invest in financial services firm both in the developed and developing world with JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon "personally involved".

According to the FT, the so far unnamed vehicle will list in New York. Talks have already begun with sovereign wealth funds to be anchor backers and with "several potential board members".
