Fifth Third Bancorp has completed its merger with Comerica Incorporated, creating the ninth-largest bank in the United States with approximately $294 billion in assets. The combination strengthens Fifth Third’s retail, digital, and commercial banking capabilities while expanding its footprint in high-growth markets such as the Southeast, Texas, California, and Arizona.

The merged bank plans to operate around 1,750 branches by 2030 and benefits from two $1 billion recurring fee businesses in Commercial Payments and Wealth and Asset Management. Integration is expected to continue through 2026, with full system and brand conversion planned for the third quarter, positioning the combined group for sustained growth and profitability.
