Truist Financial
Truist Financial Corporation is a leading financial institution that was formed in December 2019 through the merger of BB&T and SunTrust Banks. Founded in 1872, BB&T was one of the largest banking organizations in the United States and has been providing retail and commercial banking services for more than 145 years. SunTrust Banks, Inc., founded in 1891, operated primarily across the southern part of the country with a focus on consumer, commercial real estate finance, capital markets activities and wealth management services. The purpose of this historic merger between two great banks was to create dramatically stronger capabilities to serve customers in an increasingly digital world, mobilize capital for economic growth and progress, build scale to lower costs through efficiencies and better serve their communities by using technology to provide access to innovative products and services. Today, Truist Financial offers comprehensive financial solutions through its regional footprint across 15 states from Florida up to Virginia, including all seven cities within the Research Triangle region.
