As American Express continues along an impressive growth trajectory, the company is preparing for heightened capital requirements as well as additional changes in capital as a result of Basel III Endgame (B3E). American Express has launched Project Fast Forward to enhance its processes and to ensure we meet regulatory expectations across the company.
