Susquehanna Bancshares repays remaining bailout funds

Susquehanna Bancshares Inc. said it repaid the remaining $100 million federal bank bailout money it received two years ago.

The Lititz, Pa., bank, which has significant operations in the Philadelphia area, had already repaid $200 million in April.

Since receiving the U.S. Treasury investment in December 2008, Susquehanna paid dividends of $23.7 million, the bank said.    - Harold Brubaker
