“Sources told the Journal the deal could come in close to a staggering $1 billion, the largest payout in the history of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), which overseas power trading markets. JPM and FERC, the little regulator that could, are reportedly exchanging drafts of an agreement. Sources told the Journal the bank is working quickly to finish the deal so they can gear up for even more regulatory hoopla in the wake of the London Whale debacle. The filings describe how traders rigged their bidding in order to be eligible for ‘make-whole’ payments that would cover trading losses and generate a healthy profit, according to the Journal.”
