Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. was a Lititz, Pennsylvania–based financial holding company and the parent of Susquehanna Bank, serving communities in southeastern Pennsylvania and northern Maryland. Through its banking subsidiary, the company offered a full suite of retail and commercial financial services, including checking and savings accounts, consumer and commercial lending, treasury and cash management, and mortgage origination.
In addition to its core banking products, Susquehanna Bancshares delivered wealth management and trust services via its Susquehanna Financial Group division, alongside insurance and investment advisory solutions. The company catered to individuals, small businesses, and middle-market enterprises with customized financing options such as equipment leases, real estate loans, and lines of credit, while emphasizing a community-oriented approach to customer service.
Founded in 1901 as Lititz Savings Bank, the organization expanded regionally through strategic branch growth and targeted acquisitions, adopting the Susquehanna Bancshares name in 1991. Guided by a board of directors and an experienced executive team, the company maintained a strong local presence until 2015, when it entered into a merger agreement with BB&T Corporation.
