SunTrust Banks Inc., Apollo Global Management and Ares Management LP are weighing offers for a General Electric Co. unit in the U.S. that lends to private-equity firms, people familiar with the matter said.

GE is working with Citigroup Inc. to sell the business, which could fetch more than $10 billion, which is the face value of its outstanding loans, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is not public.
