SunTrust Launches FinTech-Focused Commercial Banking Specialty



SunTrust launched a new payments and technology industry specialty in Commercial and Business Banking. Eric Brewer, current head of Treasury and Payment Solutions at SunTrust, will move to Commercial Banking to lead this new specialty.

“In banking today, you’re either a disruptor or you’re being disrupted,” said Beau Cummins, Commercial and Business Banking executive at SunTrust. Consumers and businesses alike are leveraging the power of FinTech and SunTrust aims to be a strategic advisor to clients pioneering and investing in payments and technology.”

With more than 25 years of treasury-related experience, Brewer will provide specialized payments expertise by acting as an advisor to Commercial Banking relationship managers. He will also bring knowledge of SunTrust Robinson Humphrey’s Technology, Media & Telecom Investment Banking Industry Practice to deliver industry insight to SunTrust clients.

“This is a time unlike any other for the payments and lending industry. Startups and established leaders will need strategic financial advisors to meet their growth goals and plan for the unexpected – like regulatory and global challenges,” said Brewer.

SunTrust Commercial Banking currently has specialties in in Aging Services, Healthcare, Not-for-Profit & Government, Education, Restaurants/Retail, Food Products/Agribusiness and Ports & Logistics.

With this transition, Michael Maza has become the new head of Treasury and Payment Solutions, reporting to Mark Chancy, Wholesale Banking executive. Maza has been with SunTrust since 2005, most recently as head of Strategy and Business Services in Treasury and Payment Solutions.
