American Express reported strong third-quarter earnings. Net revenue increased 9% from last year to $20 billion, while diluted earnings per share jumped 31% to $5.42. However, this includes a $751 aftertax gain from the sale of American Express Global Business Travel.
American Express operates as a closed-loop network for the cards that it issues. This allows it to capture more of the economic profit of a single credit card payment than other credit card issuers.
American Express operates with a narrower scope than many of its competitors, offering fewer deposit and lending products than other credit card issuers.
