These results include a benefit from credit reserve releases of $ 5.2 billion that we do not consider core or recurring profits . We believe our credit reserves of $ 26 billion are appropriate and prudent , all things considered . " Dimon continued : " In Consumer & Community Banking , consumer spending in our businesses has returned to pre - pandemic levels , up 14 % versus the first quarter of 2019. We are also seeing good momentum in T & E with spend up more than 50 % in March versus February . Home Lending originations were very strong , up 40 % , with almost 75 % of consumer mortgage applications completed digitally , but we expect this to slow with the recent rise in interest rates . Loan demand remained challenged as Card outstandings remain lower despite spend recovering to pre - COVID levels . Deposits were up 32 % and investments were up 44 % . In the Corporate & Investment Bank , we maintained our wallet share , Global IB fees were up 57 % and Commercial Banking generated IB revenue over $ 1 billion . Corporate clients continued to access capital markets for liquidity and repay revolvers . In Asset & Wealth Management , continued strong investment performance , growth in new products and advisor hiring led to net inflows of $ 48 billion into long - term products . Also , AWM has seen strong and steady loan demand primarily to support business growth and mortgages . " Dimon added : " We continue to make significant investments in products , people , and technology , all while maintaining credit discipline and a fortress balance sheet . We are fully engaged in trying to help solve some of the world's biggest issues , and we announced a commitment to finance and facilitate $ 200 billion in 2020 to drive action on climate change and advance sustainable development . We remain committed to using our resources to drive inclusive solutions to support our employees , customers , clients and the communities we serve through these trying times . In the quarter , we extended credit and raised capital of $ 804 billion , as well as funded approximately $ 10 billion under the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program , for consumers and clients of all sizes around the world . " Dimon concluded : " With all of the stimulus spending , potential infrastructure spending , continued Quantitative Easing , strong consumer and business balance sheets and euphoria around the potential end of the pandemic , we believe that the economy has the potential to have extremely robust , multi - year growth . This growth can benefit all Americans , particularly those who suffered the most during this pandemic . If all of the government programs are spent wisely and efficiently , focusing on actual outcomes , the benefits will be more widely shared , economic growth will be more sustainable and future problems , like inflation and too much debt , will be reduced .
