This case presents an interesting acquisition opportunity that SunTrust considered in 2004: National Commerce Financial, a large commercial bank, based in Memphis, Tennessee, with a strong footprint in North and South Carolina. The case shows how capital ratios are often a key component in the bank-merger process, and it allows for the evaluation of whether Phil Humann (SunTrust’s CEO) could justify a multi-billion-dollar acquisition that had the potential to deplete capital, even if the deal were accretive to earnings.
