VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

NOTE 23. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES. In our Statement of Financial Position, we have assets of $117 million and $401 million and liabilities of $203 million and $206 million at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, in consolidated Variable Interest Entities (VIEs). These entities were created to help our customers facilitate or finance the purchase of GE equipment and services and have no features that could expose us to losses that would significantly exceed the difference between the consolidated assets and liabilities.

Our investments in unconsolidated VIEs were $6,657 million and $5,917 million at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of these investments, $1,272 million and $1,481 million were owned by Energy Financial Services (EFS), comprising equity method investments, primarily renewable energy tax equity investments, at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In addition, $5,151 million and $4,219 million were owned by our run-off insurance operations, primarily comprising equity method investments at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss in respect of unconsolidated VIEs is increased by our commitments to make additional investments in these entities described in Note 24.
