The Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter, that GE is considering making deeper cuts in its commercial lending arm, having decided the returns from lending are no longer worth the ire it provokes among investors.

But make no mistake, the ultimate size of GE Capital will be based on competitiveness, returns and the impact of regulation on the company.”
