The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $2,000,000 of Capped Buffer In-GEARS senior notes linked to the Russell 2000® Index, maturing July 3, 2030. The payout at maturity depends on an underlying performance factor (final level ÷ initial level). The notes cap upside at a 46.08% maximum gain and provide a 14% buffer (downside threshold at 86%), meaning investors can lose up to 86% of principal if the final level falls below the downside threshold. Minimum investment is 100 securities at $10 each ($1,000); the initial estimated value on the trade date was $9.76 per security. Payments, including any principal repayment, are subject to the creditworthiness of BNS.
