Jing Ulrich (李晶）(b. 1967, Beijing, China) is managing director and chairman of JPMorgan's China equities business. She is in charge of expanding JPMorgan's equity business in China and worldwide by strengthening the company's relationships with institutional investors, corporate clients, and Chinese regulatory authorities. Ulrich also created and runs the JPMorgan's "Hands-on China" series of expert speakers. Each year she organizes a China-investor conference that brings together over one thousand fund managers, corporate executives, and outside experts to discuss opportunities for investing in China. Previous conferences run by Ulrich have included keynote speeches by former Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji and U.S. President Bill Clinton.

In October 2006, the South China Morning Post and the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong chose Jing Ulrich as Hong Kong's Young Achiever of the Year from among several hundred nominees.

An annual poll of institutional investors, published in June 2007, ranked Ulrich as head of the top China team worldwide – a title she has held five times, according to Institutional Investor magazine in June 2007, which put a photo of Ulrich on the cover of its international edition of that issue. During the past decade, Ulrich has achieved recognition as the industry’s most respected China watcher. Global investors in independent research polls of other publications such as Asiamoney magazine have repeatedly chosen her as the best China strategist.

Print and TV media often interview Ulrich for her views on China. When traveling to the U.S. she is a frequent guest of Maria Bartiromo on CNBC's Closing Bell investor news program. She has also appeared on the PBS Nightly Business Report. In Asia she regularly speaks on Bloomberg Television.

From 2003 to 2005, Ulrich was managing director of Greater China equities at Deutsche Bank. Before joining Deutsche Bank, Ulrich spent seven years at Credit Lyonnais Securities Asia, where she led the top-ranked team covering the China market.

Before 1996, Ulrich worked as a fund manager for Greater China at Emerging Markets in Washington, D.C. In 1990, she received a bachelor's degree with honors from Harvard University and in 1992 a master's degree from Stanford University.

In his 1990 autobiography, To Life: The Story of a Chicago Lawyer, the respected jurist, Elmer Gertz, a protégé of Clarence Darrow and defender of human rights, devoted several pages to Ulrich, whom he had met when she was still a teenager. Her drive and talent, even at that age, prompted him to predict she would one day become a leader of China.

Jing Ulrich is bilingual in Mandarin and English. She lives in Hong Kong and is married to Paul Ulrich, the author of the novel, Saudi Match Point.
