The cap varies by campaign. In my current superheroic fantasy campaign there is a soft cap of 15. There are various costly and/or difficult ways to increase them.

The basic ways are:
An increasing cost rules exception: 1 point for one attribute level over 15, 5 for a total of two attribute levels, 25 for a total of 3 attribute levels.
Magic items: +1 are fairly cheap, +2 expensive +3 not possible to buy for the PCs
Race: Many races have attribute bonuses and penalties and those modify the cap.

At the end of your campaigns, when you're basically done with those characters, about how CP total do your players reach?
Depends a lot on the campaign.

My current campaign is so far at 2961 to 3377 points after 293 sessions, each typically 8-9 hours. They will likely hit about 4500-5000 points by the end as they are approx 2/3 through the campaign and started at 100 points.

The previous campaign was only 72 sessions, with ending points at 456 to 652 with starting at 125 points.
