Not exactly. American Express created Shearson Lehman through a series of acquisitions, and then sold it off in the 1990's. The last of the cluster of investment businesses was sold off in 2005, and is now called Ameriprise.

American Express currently issues cards for Ameriprise, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley (charge card and credit card).

American Express previously issued cards for Fidelity (the current card is issued by Bank of America, on Amex-network). They also used to offer a card through First Republic Bank.
