Has SunTrust Bank Received Any Bailout Money?

yes - $4,850,000,000 in 2008.Brief scrutiny of today's headlinesprint emailHere's yet another firm that refuses to believe that executive compensation should reflect company performance: Prior to accepting federal bailout money, SunTrust Bank (STI) granted CEO James M. Wells III a massive pay raise.According to a proxy filed this Monday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company's board of directors raised Wells' total compensation over 75%, to almost $8.1 million.Last year, Wells' base salary jumped 7.7%, to roughly $1.1 million; he also received stock options worth $2.1 million and restricted shares totaling $4.7 million.Given the fact that SunTrust stock dropped 54% in 2008, and an additional 63% since the new year, company spokesperson Mike McCoy assured USA Today that the proxy overstates the current value of Wells' compensation. The stock options and restricted shares were granted a year ago, when shares were fetching $64.58. * STOCKS * RELATED ARTICLES * ALSO BY...

However, the company's profit and return on equity didn't reach year-end goals in 2008 and earned less than half of 2007's $4.55 per share - thus putting the justification of any base pay hike into question.The heads of Ford (F), Citigroup (C) and Aflac (AFL) have all implemented slashed salaries, citing lower stock values.Apparently, both Wells and SunTrust think they're a bunch of cowards.http://bailout.propublica.org/entities/457-suntrust
