American Express Co  (BSP:AXPB34) Capital Adequacy Tier - Total Capital Ratio % Explanation

A bank’s total capital includes Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital. Tier 1 capital, or core capital, consists of common stock, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and any regulatory adjustments to those accounts. Tier 1 capital is the capital that is permanently and easily available to cushion losses suffered by a bank without it being required to stop operating.

Tier 2 capital consists of unaudited retained earnings, unaudited reserves and general loss reserves. It is used to absorb losses if a bank loses all its Tier 1 capital, so it provides a lesser degree of protection to depositors and creditors.
