Vera Institute of Justice

J.P. Mourra is a director and relationship manager with Deutsche Bank. He has more than 20 years’ of experience in private banking and wealth management. Prior to joining Deutsche Bank, he held positions with Bank of America, Citi, and Wells Fargo.

Born and raised in Haiti, J.P.’s family heritage traces back to the Levant region through his grandparents. Once the wealthiest French colony in the Americas, Haiti is now the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, burdened by a long history of political instability, foreign interventions, and natural disasters. Growing up privileged in such a complex environment shaped J.P.’s perspective and inspired his commitment to social justice. A family member’s unfortunate experience with the American justice system further deepened this commitment and ultimately led him to Vera.
