Is it true that Truist Bank is the successor to BB&T, formed by its 2019 merger with SunTrust?

Yes. Two reference sources state that BB&T merged with SunTrust in 2019 to form Truist, and that SunTrust Bank merged into Branch Banking & Trust Company, forming Truist Bank as the merged entity's legal banking name.
