About the Team
Global Financial Crimes Compliance (GFCC), within Global Risk & Compliance (GRC), serves as the independent second line of defense (2LOD) for enterprise-wide Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Sanctions, and Anti-Corruption programs. We provide critical oversight of financial crime risks, partnering closely with business, risk, and control functions to ensure the integrity of American Express's global network.
As payment ecosystems evolve through embedded finance, ATM networks, joint ventures, marketplaces, digital wallets, and complex third-party structures, maintaining strong and consistent financial crime governance is paramount. Our mission is to identify, understand, and address potential regulatory exposure across all markets and lines of business in a unified manner.
