General Electric Co. (GE) on Thursday said it is offering to buy back up to $5 billion in notes as the conglomerate continues to pare its debt load.

GE said it is launching tender offers covering several series of dollar- and euro-denominated notes as it works to bolster its balance sheet and reduce its industrial leverage.

GE on Wednesday pulled in net proceeds of about $2.7 billion as it sold part of its stake in Baker Hughes (BHGE), reducing its interest to 38.4%.
