Oliver Gregson

Spear’s Review

Oliver Gregson served as the head of the UK, Ireland and Channel Islands desks for J.P. Morgan Private Bank for nearly a decade before leaving his post in February 2025. Known in the industry as a canny operator  well respected by his peers and highly recommended by one veteran banker, Gregson also held a senior role in Barclays’ private client division. 

Equipped with more than 20 years of knowledge and experience, Gregson focused on the needs of ‘the most sophisticated clients’. 

‘Although our clients' needs and the financial markets will certainly change over time, we are here to ensure they will always be able to access advice they can trust,’ he told Spear's. 

In addition to overseeing the day-to-day business of the private bank, he was responsible for expanding its UHNW services throughout the UK – including major investments into its Scottish operations.
