A No one is surprised these days when a bank touts the quality of its ser vices or announces with pride the addition of another zero in its assets column. And certainly, these * things are important. It's ? just that, at BB&T, we view them from a somewhat dif ferent perspective. Because, what we value above all else is something quite dif ferent. We place a premium on attitude. Attitude shows up on 9 the balance sheet only in directly. But we venture to say that you'll notice the difference it makes when you enter any one of our branches. You'll find, for example, that instead of merely pro- ? i viding a service, we're inter I ested in the full range of i your long-term financial * plans and needs. We believe that our commitment to long-term thinking gives us superior ^ * insight. And that this insight gives us the ability to under stand the need and value of integrated financial solu * tions for our customers. Responsiveness is an [ other BB&T attribute. We're committed to responding to 4 any request for our services in the absolute minimum amount of time. Ultimately, you'll also discover that BB&T delivers the highest quality financial services across the board. Quality. Commitment. * ^ Performance.
