Overview of The Department

Commercial Rating and Underwriting (CRU) sits within the Credit and Fraud Risk Management (CFR) division and forms the institutional credit risk management function within American Express. The CRU team plays the critical role of assessing and managing the risk of institutional exposures across all business units within American Express, and in all regions globally. Credit exposures are primarily generated through corporate and small business card programs, via merchant service relationships where non-delivery risk exists, and among the securities portfolio held for firm-wide liquidity. CRU is led from Salt Lake City with regional teams in New York, London, Singapore, India and Sydney.

In addition to determining the internal credit rating which drives the probability of default of each exposure, CRU also underwrites Amex’s large commercial card programs. As a bank holding company, American Express must comply with the highest global banking standards set by Basel and implemented by our primary regulator, the Federal Reserve.
