American Express faces investigation over $13B suspected money laundering lapses since 2014

American Express National Bank is under investigation following an OCC Consent Order citing major deficiencies in its anti-money laundering (AML) program from June 2014 to May 2025. The OCC found the bank failed to properly monitor and report about $13 billion in suspected trade-based money laundering, including suspicious activities involving insiders. The bank must now implement extensive corrective measures and oversight reforms. Long-term shareholders are encouraged to join a legal investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duties by company officers and directors related to these compliance failures.

American Express shares are trading at USD 308.17 on Pluang as of Oct 11, 2026 22:02 WIB, showing a slight 0.02% increase in the last day. The stock's market capitalization stands at $208.11 billion, reflecting its significant presence in the financial sector. Despite the ongoing investigation, Pluang users currently show 100% buy order activity for AXP.
