Its Form 6-K reports include earnings-related releases, capitalization and earnings-ratio exhibits, Canadian certification materials, and updates incorporated by reference into Form F-3 and Form S-8 registration statements.
The bank’s filings also record governance and shareholder matters, including proxy circular materials, board mandates, by-law amendments, annual and special meeting voting results, and director-election outcomes. Capital-structure disclosures cover common shares, preferred shares and other equity instruments, subordinated indebtedness, normal course issuer bids, and other regulatory capital matters.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $941,000 of senior unsecured digital notes linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index, maturing on February 3, 2028.
The notes pay no interest. At maturity, investors receive $1,110 per $1,000 principal (an 11.1% cap) if the final level of both indices is at or above their initial levels (2,613.743 for Russell 2000 and 6,939.03 for S&P 500). If either index finishes below its initial level, the payoff is limited to principal only, so the return is zero before inflation.
The notes are unsecured obligations subject to Scotiabank’s credit risk, are not insured, and will not be listed on an exchange, so liquidity may be limited. The bank’s initial estimated value is $978.13 per $1,000 note, below the $1,000 issue price, reflecting fees, hedging costs and internal funding. Underwriting commissions are 0.50%, and net proceeds to the bank are $936,295.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $2,831,000 of Capped Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes linked to the Russell 2000 Index, maturing November 4, 2027. The notes pay no interest and all return depends on the index level on the November 1, 2027 valuation date.
Holders get 150% of any positive index return, capped at a maximum payment of $1,225 per $1,000 note, which is reached if the index rises 15% or more. A 10% downside buffer protects against moderate declines, but beyond that investors lose 1% of principal for each additional 1% index drop, up to a 90% loss. Initial estimated value is $971.19 per $1,000, below issue price, and all payments depend on Scotiabank’s credit.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $17,036,000 of senior unsecured “Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities” due February 2, 2029, linked to Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) common stock. Each $1,000 security can pay a quarterly contingent coupon of $36.75, equivalent to 14.70% per annum, but only when AMD’s closing price on a determination date is at or above the downside threshold of $118.365, which is 50% of the initial share price of $236.73.
The notes auto-call at par plus coupon if AMD closes at or above 100% of the initial share price ($236.73) on any non-final determination date, ending all future payments. If held to maturity and AMD finishes below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced 1‑for‑1 with AMD’s decline and can fall to zero, so principal is fully at risk. The securities are unsecured obligations of BNS, carry BNS credit risk, are not listed, and have an estimated initial value of $963.10 per $1,000, below the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $887,000 of Capped Buffered Index‑Linked Notes tied to the worst performer of the Russell 2000 and S&P 500, maturing August 4, 2027. The notes pay no interest and all value comes from index performance between January 30, 2026 and July 30, 2027.
Investors get 120% participation in the worst index’s gain, but returns are capped at $1,267.50 per $1,000. If the worst index finishes between 90% and 100% of its start, investors earn a positive return on the absolute decline. Below 90%, losses match the drop beyond the 10% buffer, up to 90% of principal.
The notes are unsecured senior obligations of Scotiabank, with repayment fully exposed to the bank’s credit risk. They are not listed, do not pay dividends, and exclude index dividend income. The bank’s initial estimated value is $968.50 per $1,000, below the issue price due to fees, funding spread and hedging costs.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $1,955,000 of Buffered Index-Linked Notes tied to the S&P 500® Index, maturing on May 5, 2027. The notes pay no interest and are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the bank.
At maturity, each $1,000 note pays based on index performance from January 30, 2026 to April 30, 2027. Upside is capped at a maximum payment of $1,120 per $1,000 (a 12% gain). If the index is down by up to 10%, investors gain the same amount in absolute terms. Below a 10% decline, losses match the drop beyond that buffer, up to a 90% loss of principal.
The initial S&P 500® level is 6,939.03. The initial estimated value is $982.81 per $1,000 due to internal funding and structuring fees. The notes will not be listed, may have limited liquidity, and all payments depend on Bank of Nova Scotia’s creditworthiness.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering digital notes linked to the S&P 500® Index under its Senior Note Program, Series A. These unsecured notes pay no interest and have a term expected to be about 27 to 30 months.
At maturity, investors receive a capped payment if the index final level is at or above 85% of its initial level, with a maximum payment amount expected between $1,165.20 and $1,194.30 per $1,000. Below the 85% threshold, losses accelerate, with about 1.1765% loss for every 1% index drop beyond 15%, up to total loss of principal.
The notes are not insured by Canadian or U.S. deposit insurers, will not be listed on any exchange, and any payment depends on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia. The initial estimated value is expected between $957.50 and $987.50 per $1,000, less than the original issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, maturing on or about February 11, 2031. Each Note has a $10 principal amount and a term of about five years, unless called earlier.
The Notes may be automatically called quarterly after 12 months if the index closing level is at or above the initial level. If called, investors receive the call price, equal to principal plus a call return based on an annual rate of 8.55%–9.55%, increasing the longer the Notes remain outstanding, and no further payments.
If not called and the final index level is at or above 75% of the initial level, investors receive only their $10 principal. If the final level is below the 75% downside threshold, repayment is reduced dollar-for-dollar with the index decline, and investors can lose their entire investment. The Notes pay no coupons or dividends, are unsecured obligations of BNS, not insured, and will not be listed on any exchange.
The initial estimated value is expected to be between $9.27 and $9.57 per $10 Note, lower than the issue price due to selling, structuring and hedging costs. Returns depend on EURO STOXX 50® performance and BNS creditworthiness, and investors face significant market, liquidity, tax and credit risks.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $4,642,000 of autocallable contingent coupon trigger notes linked to Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. stock, maturing March 4, 2027. The notes pay a $13 monthly coupon per $1,000 (1.30%) only when AMD’s closing price is at least 55% of the $236.73 initial price.
The notes are automatically called if AMD is at or above the initial price on observation dates from July 2026 through January 2027, returning $1,000 plus the coupon. If not called, investors receive $1,000 plus the final coupon if AMD is at or above 55% of the initial price at final valuation; otherwise principal is reduced one-for-one with AMD’s decline, up to a total loss. The notes are unsecured obligations of The Bank of Nova Scotia, are not listed on an exchange, and had an initial estimated value of $969.73 per $1,000.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsecured Autocallable Contingent Coupon Buffer Notes with Memory Coupon linked to the common stock of NVIDIA Corporation, maturing on February 24, 2027, in $1,000 denominations with a minimum investment of $10,000.
The notes pay a contingent coupon of at least $52.60 per $1,000 on scheduled dates only if NVIDIA’s closing value is at or above 80% of the Initial Value; missed coupons may be “remembered” and paid later if a future barrier is met. The notes are automatically called, returning principal plus due coupons, if NVIDIA is at or above the Initial Value on any observation date.
If the notes are not called and NVIDIA’s final value is at least 80% of the Initial Value, investors receive full principal back plus any due coupons. If the final value falls below this buffer, investors lose 1.25% of principal for each 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer and can lose up to 100% of principal. The initial estimated value is expected between $953.08 and $983.08 per $1,000, below the 100% original issue price. The notes are not insured, are subject to Scotiabank’s credit risk, and will not be listed on an exchange.

The Notes pay no interest, are not insured by CDIC or FDIC, will not be listed on an exchange, and all payments depend on the credit of the Bank. The initial estimated value is expected to be $949.92–$979.92 per $1,000, below the Original Issue Price, reflecting structuring, hedging and distribution costs.
