DOJ Files Map Ghislaine Maxwell’s Wealth to Family Trusts and Epstein Transfers as UBS Took Over Her Banking

JPMorgan labeled her a high‑risk client in 2013, prompting an exit that preceded UBS opening her accounts in 2014.

Overview

  • An internal JPMorgan assessment released in the DOJ cache estimated Maxwell’s 2013 net worth at about $10 million and cited trusts tied to her father Robert Maxwell as her primary source of wealth.
  • Bank records show Jeffrey Epstein transferred large sums to Maxwell, including $18.3 million in 1999 and $5 million in 2002, totaling more than $30 million from JPMorgan accounts alone.
  • Documents indicate UBS opened personal and business accounts for Maxwell in 2014, assigned relationship managers, and helped manage as much as $19 million, including routine transfers in 2019.
  • JPMorgan’s know‑your‑customer checks flagged Maxwell as high risk over her Epstein links, and the bank ended its Epstein relationship in 2013 before Maxwell moved her banking to UBS.
  • The files include multiple bank red flags and reports, detail Epstein naming a $10 million bequest to Maxwell in his will, and contain disputed FBI notes about how she met Epstein, with no financial‑crime charges filed against her.
