SunTrust Bank (SunTrust) for $418 million. As part of the payment, SunTrust admitted that between , it originated and underwrote FHA-insured mortgages that did not meet FHA requirements and were therefore not eligible for FHA mortgage insurance, that it failed to carry out an effective quality control program to identify non-compliant loans and that it failed to self-report to HUD even the defective loans it did identify. SunTrust also admitted that numerous audits and other documents disseminated to its management between 2009 and 2012 described significant flaws and inadequacies in SunTrust’s origination, underwriting, and quality control processes and notified SunTrust management that as many as 50 percent or more of SunTrust’s FHA-insured mortgages did not comply with FHA requirements. For example, a 2010 internal audit stated that SunTrust had identified pervasive weaknesses in many controls that…impair continuity and consistency of operations and management’s ability to generate high-quality loans. Other reports received by SunTrust management described its quality control program as severely flawed and ineffective. These reports also described to management that the volume of problems in the program was excessive, and that the error rates were elevated and at an unacceptable level.
