American private wealth banker, Managing Director at Deutsche Bank and later Merrill Lynch, managed Jeffrey Epstein's banking accounts
Paul Morris was the Deutsche Bank relationship manager who personally brought Jeffrey Epstein on as a client after following him from JPMorgan Chase, opening more than 40 accounts and pitching Epstein to senior management as a client who could generate $100–$300 million in flows.
Morris appears extensively across the Epstein files as a central figure in Epstein's banking relationships. He is named in account opening documents as the account manager for multiple Epstein-linked entities including Southern Financial LLC, the 2007 Jeffrey E. Epstein Insurance Trust, Gratitude America Ltd, and Atom Development Corp. Internal Deutsche Bank emails show Morris communicating directly with Epstein about investments (oil options, market analyses), forwarding weekly financial reports, and coordinating with compliance staff on KYC reviews for Epstein's accounts. Deutsche Bank internal investigation records and DOJ documents also reference Morris as a former employee the bank sought to interview about Epstein's accounts.
