Score in full report

American Express maintains strong brand fundamentals with top-tier customer satisfaction rankings, a robust market position, and industry-leading premium card demand, but recent regulatory fines and reputational spillover from political scandal have created near-term headwinds. The $350M anti-money laundering penalty and the high-profile Kimberly Guilfoyle incident dominate current social conversation, though they appear to be affecting brand perception rather than core customer loyalty metrics.

Market leadership in premium segment and customer satisfaction

American Express ranked No. 1 for customer satisfaction among US credit card issuers for the seventh consecutive year according to JD Power 2026 study, scoring top marks across all seven satisfaction dimensions.
