Truist's Southeastern Footprint Has Attractive Growth Potential
Business Strategy and Outlook
Truist’s business is mostly retail and wholesale banking after the sale of its insurance brokerage business unit in 2024. While this divestiture provided the bank with excess capital to reposition some of its lower-yield securities and for share buybacks, we appreciated the capital-light and less cyclical fee income stream, which historically provided a nice boost to the bank’s return on equity profile.
