Many corporations review their business portfolio periodically to determine which operations continue to fit their core strategies. As part of this review, the parent conducts a financial analysis to determine if the business is worth more to shareholders if it is sold and the proceeds either returned to the shareholders or reinvested in opportunities offering higher returns.

Since then, GE has completed transactions valued at more than $100 billion in buying and selling various operating units.
