To give you a sense of the scale of what we ll build together, Capital One today operates orders of magnitude ahead of Brex on almost any metric: $900B in annual card GMV, $700B in assets, $150B in market cap, a $6B marketing budget, and a $6B R&D budget. By combining Brex s technology, product, and go-to-market success with Capital One s unprecedented scale, brand, distribution, and balance sheet, we will supercharge our go-to-market and product development with levels of investment that will accelerate our mission by over a decade.
