GE has been a finance and insurance company for some time.
- brianwawok 6y agoDidn’t geico get sold to buffet?
- akeck 6y agoYes.
- dennyabraham 6y agoThough they have similar names, GEICO and GE are unrelated businesses. The former is an acronymn for Government Employees Insurance Company, the latter stands for General Electric
- nogabebop23 6y agoIf you remember 30 Rock, It's just "G" now - they sold the "E" to "Samesung"
- emmelaich 6y agooh, I'm corrected, thanks.
- kstrauser 6y agoTo the best of my knowledge, GE and the Government Employees Insurance Company are unrelated.
- heartbreak 6y agoGE does have a major finance arm, but as other commenters have said, it isn’t GEICO. It’s called GE Capital. It’s also much smaller than it used to be, because they spun off the consumer credit line of the business as Synchrony Bank several years ago.
