Diana Farrell is a banker and political advisor who served until 2021 as the founding President and Chief Executive Officer of the JPMorgan Chase Institute, a think tank.

During the Obama Administration, Farrell served as Deputy Director of the United States National Economic Council and as a member of the Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis.

Lawrence Summers, then the Director of the NEC, who had previously announced that he would return at the end of the year to Harvard University, noted that Farrell had "played a central role" in the efforts of the administration to encourage economic growth, restructure the auto industry, and respond to the housing crisis.

Summers further stated: "Her natural talent as a policy maker and her good judgment made her invaluable in setting a course for economic recovery.

Following the 2008 financial crisis, Farrell argued that governments had "overextended themselves" in the aftermath of the recession and called for "structural reforms" in an October 2012 interview.
