On September 2, 2003, Amex Bank of Canada, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., launched its co-branded, general purpose credit card with Holt Renfrew & Co. Ltd., which can be used anywhere American Express is accepted. The launching of this new credit card involved the transition of the previously existing Holt Renfrew in-store card from Trans Canada Retail Services Company to American Express, and the entering into of a co-brand payment card agreement between Amex and Holt Renfrew.
