-- Wells Fargo & Company Analyst Notes On June 10, 2014, Wells Fargo & Company (Wells Fargo) released results from its 2014 Wells Fargo Millennial Study. The survey, which was conducted among over 1,600 U.S. adults aged 22-33 (millennials) and among over 1,500 U.S. adults aged 49-59 (baby boomers), showed that eight in ten millennial Americans admit that following the Great Recession of 2008 they have learned to save at present to prepare for any possible economic problems in the future. The survey also found that despite this generation's reported lesson, 45% are not saving for retirement, while a little more than half (55%) are saving. Wells Fargo Director of Retail Retirement Karen Wimbish commented, "The silver lining of the recession that started over five years ago is that a majority of millennials get that saving is a necessity and even equate it with 'surviving' tough times. But millennial women are starting out their working lives making far less than men and, as a consequence, are saving less and feeling less contentment at the start of their working lives."

-- SunTrust Banks, Inc. Analyst Notes On June 13, 2014, SunTrust Banks, Inc. (SunTrust) announced that the Company has started issuing EMV chip cards to all new consumers to add a layer of protection for client information. The existing cards will be replaced with the EMV chip cards as they expire. The embedded microchips provide stronger transaction security features which were previously not available on cards with the traditional magnetic stripe. The offering of EMV chip cards is being carried out a year earlier than the credit card industry's scheduled October 2015 transition to chip technology. SunTrust's Client Segments and Solutions Executive, Beverly Ladley, commented, "Protecting our clients' information is a responsibility we take very seriously. Adding chip technology makes an already secure card even safer and provides our clients with an extra level of protection."
