Goldman Sachs is in talks to offload its Apple credit card and high-yield savings account products to American Express, a source told CNBC’s Leslie Picker.
Goldman Sachs and Apple declined to comment. CNBC has also reached out to American Express.
The talks come amid a broader retreat by Goldman from its largely failed consumer banking initiatives, for which CEO David Solomon has taken a great deal of heat. Last week, CNBC reported that the Wall Street giant is preparing to take a huge writedown on its 2021 acquisition of fintech lender GreenSky.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the Goldman talks with American Express. The newspaper said there’s no assurance of a deal, nor is an agreement close.
The Journal also reported that Goldman is talking about unloading its General Motors card partnership. CNBC has also reached out to GM for comment.
