The Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank, BNS) is a foreign private issuer in the United States and provides a range of regulatory disclosures through filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As indicated in recent Form 6-K reports, the bank files under Form 40-F and furnishes information that is incorporated by reference into its registration statements on Form S-8 and Form F-3. This page brings together those SEC filings so that investors can review Scotiabank’s official disclosures in one place.
Scotiabank’s Form 6-K submissions cover several key categories of information. Recent filings reference the bank’s annual report, annual financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis, as well as fourth quarter earnings coverage, consolidated capitalization and consolidated earnings ratios, and statements regarding the computation of earnings ratios. Other 6-K filings include independent auditors’ reports, certifications required under Canadian securities legislation, and press releases announcing dividends on outstanding shares and reporting fourth quarter results.
Because The Bank of Nova Scotia uses Form 40-F, its annual report and related financial statements are central documents for understanding its performance across Canadian banking, international banking, global wealth management, and global banking and markets.

The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the common stock of Palantir Technologies Inc. The notes have a term of about 2.5 years, with monthly observation dates from early 2026 to mid‑2028.
Investors may receive a high contingent coupon, in a range of 21.65% to 22.65% per annum, but only if Palantir’s share price on an observation date is at or above a coupon barrier set at 65% of the initial level. The notes are automatically called, returning principal plus the coupon, if Palantir’s price is at or above the initial level on any observation date before maturity.
If the notes are not called and Palantir’s final level is at or above a downside threshold set at 55% of the initial level, investors receive full principal back at maturity. If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the share price decline, and investors could lose their entire principal. The notes are not listed, have limited liquidity, and all payments depend on BNS’s credit. The initial estimated value is between $9.430 and $9.738 per $10 face amount, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsecured Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes linked to the least performing of the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF and the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing in early 2028. The notes pay no interest; instead, the maturity payment depends on how the worst of the two reference assets performs from the January 2026 trade date to the January 2028 valuation date.
If both final levels are above their initial levels, holders receive $1,000 plus at least 153.00% of the gain of the worst performer. If any final level is at or below its initial level but both stay at or above 90.00% of initial, investors receive only the $1,000 principal. If any final level falls below 90.00% of initial, the payoff drops dollar-for-dollar beyond the 10.00% buffer, and investors can lose up to 90.00% of principal.
The initial estimated value is expected between $925.00 and $965.00 per $1,000, reflecting internal funding and structuring costs, including up to 0.80% in underwriting commissions. The notes are not insured, will not be listed on an exchange, and all payments depend on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering buffered index-linked notes tied to the S&P 500® Index, maturing on May 5, 2027. These unsecured senior notes pay no interest; your return depends entirely on index performance between the trade date and the valuation date.
If the S&P 500 finishes above its initial level, your payoff increases one-for-one with the index but is capped by a maximum upside payment amount expected to be at least $1,120.00 per $1,000 note. If the index is flat or down by up to 10.00%, you receive a positive return equal to the absolute index move. If the index falls by more than 10.00%, you lose 1% of principal for each additional 1% decline, and you could lose up to 90.00% of your investment.
The notes are not insured by CDIC or FDIC, will not be listed on an exchange, and any payment depends on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia. The initial estimated value is expected to be $925.00–$965.00 per $1,000, below the 100% original issue price, reflecting internal funding, structuring fees of up to 0.50%, hedging costs and other selling expenses.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Autocallable Digital Trigger Notes linked to the Russell 2000 and S&P 500, maturing on or about February 1, 2029. The notes pay no interest and are unsecured senior debt.
The notes may be automatically called on a single call observation date in January 2027 if both indices are at or above their initial levels. In that case, investors receive $1,000 plus a call premium expected to be at least 7.50% per $1,000.
If not called, the maturity payment depends on the least performing index. If both final levels are at or above their initial levels, investors receive the greater of $1,400 per $1,000 note (a 40% threshold settlement) or $1,000 plus the least-performing index return. If any index finishes below its initial level but at or above 85% of it, principal is returned. If any index ends below 85% of its initial level, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline in the worst index, up to a total loss of principal.
The initial estimated value is expected to be $925–$965 per $1,000, below issue price, reflecting fees, hedging and the bank’s internal funding rate. The notes will not be listed, and any secondary market, if available, may be limited.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $1,871,000 of Trigger Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes linked to the common stock of Dell Technologies Inc., issued at $10 per Note under its Senior Note Program, Series A. The Notes pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 12.55% per annum (or $0.3138 per quarter per Note) only when Dell’s closing share price on an observation date is at or above the coupon barrier of $70.19, which is 55.00% of the initial level of $127.62 observed on the strike date. The same $70.19 level also acts as the downside threshold: if the Notes are not automatically called and Dell’s final level is below this threshold, repayment at maturity is reduced dollar-for-dollar with Dell’s percentage decline, and investors could lose their entire principal. The Notes can be automatically called on quarterly observation dates if Dell closes at or above the initial level, in which case investors receive principal plus the applicable contingent coupon and the Notes terminate early. The initial estimated value on the trade date is $9.74 per $10 principal amount, below the issue price, and any payments depend entirely on the creditworthiness of BNS.

Contingent coupons of at least $27.875 per note (at least 11.15% per annum) are paid only when Amazon’s closing value is at or above 70.00% of the initial value on specified observation dates.
If the notes are not called and the final value is at or above the 70.00% barrier, investors receive principal back; if it is below the barrier, repayment is reduced one-for-one with Amazon’s decline and up to 100% of principal may be lost. The initial estimated value is expected to be between $938.59 and $968.59 per $1,000, reflecting structuring, hedging and distribution costs, and the notes are unsecured obligations subject to Scotiabank’s credit risk.

If Amazon’s final share price is at least 85% of the initial value of $232.52, investors receive a fixed 14.00% digital return, or $1,140 per Note. If the final value is below the 85% buffer level, repayment is reduced on a leveraged basis (about 1.1765% loss for each 1% drop beyond the 15% buffer), and investors can lose their entire principal.
The Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Bank, are not insured by CDIC or FDIC, and will not be listed on an exchange. The initial estimated value is $990.06 per $1,000 Note, reflecting internal funding and hedging costs, and liquidity in the secondary market may be limited.

Investors receive quarterly contingent coupons of at least $25.625 per $1,000 note (at least 2.5625% per quarter, or up to at least 10.25% per year) only if SMH’s closing price on an observation date is at or above 70% of the initial price.
The notes can be automatically called on specified dates from July 2026 to January 2027 if SMH is at or above its initial price, paying $1,000 per note plus the applicable contingent coupon, with no further payments.
