With more than 1,600 retail banking centers and more than 2,800 ATMs, SunTrust Bank has a strong presence throughout the Southeast and Middle Atlantic regions with customers across Florida, Georgia, Maryland, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina and Washington, D.C. While the bank's history dates back to 1891, the current SunTrust Bank was formed in 1985 when the Trust Company of Georgia and SunBanks Inc., merged. It is now the ninth biggest bank in America.

SunTrust financial security

The 2008 housing crisis had a big impact on SunTrust, and the U.S. government's bank stress tests asked the bank to raise $2.2 billion to boost its capital. Florida and Georgia had two of the highest rates of foreclosure, and many of these were SunTrust loans. However, SunTrust raised the necessary funds and continues to offer banking and lending services to its customers. Check out SunTrust Bank's Safe & Sound rating on Bankrate.com.
