JP Morgan was an American financier who had a controlling interest in the IMM: the International Mercantile Marine. This was a consortium of shipping interests that owned, among other things, the White Star Line, which in turn owned Titanic. As a foreigner, JP Morgan could not directly own Titanic, but he could own the COMPANY that owned Titanic.
