As GE retools portfolio, Quebec's pension-fund manager eyes broader partnership

The Caisse de depot et placement du Québec is eyeing a broader partnership with General Electric Co. as the beleaguered U.S. manufacturer rethinks its business.
The pension-fund manager is already teaming with GE on a US$2 billion aircraft-leasing platform. The duo also partnered on the purchase of a U.S. natural-gas pipeline system in 2015.
Now the pension-fund manager is open to playing a “constructive role” as GE overhauls its portfolio, said Caisse Chief Executive Officer
