Abstract: We review and provide simplified proofs related to the Magnus expansion, and improve convergence estimates. Observations and improvements concerning the Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff expansion are also made. In this Part III, we consider the Banach--Lie algebraic setting. We show how to improve the ``standard convergence bound using the customary generating function / ODE methods. Then we discuss how to achieve better convergence bounds using the resolvent method. The emphasis here is on the variety of the methods, rather than pushing them to the extreme. Nevertheless, regarding the cumulative convergence radii, we show how to establish $2.427 < m a t h r m C_{i} n f t y^{m a t h r m L i e} l e q 4$ for the Magnus expansion, and $2.93 < m a t h r m C_{2}^{m a t h r m L i e} l e q 4 s q r t 2 = 5.656 l d o t s$ for the BCH expansion.
