GE Healthcare Unloads Lending Care Biz for $9 Billion

The diversified conglomerate GE wants to shift its focus back to manufacturing, and is in the process of dismantling its $200 billion financial business known as GE Capital, which proved to be a liability for the firm during the Great Recession.

The company’s GE Healthcare division is falling in line with this strategy, and is selling off its healthcare lending business for $9 billion, which will significantly boost Capital One’s healthcare investing business.

The deal will include $8.5 billion worth of loans to medical device and pharmaceutical companies as well as developers of senior housing, medical office buildings, and hospitals.
