New Issue: Scotiabank sells $8.72 million leveraged market-linked step-up notes on index basket

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, July 5 – Bank of Nova Scotia priced $8.72 million of 0% leveraged market-linked step-up notes due June 26, 2025 tied to a weighted basket of indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 40% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 20% weight, the Nikkei Stock Average index with a 20% weight, the Swiss Market index with a 7.5% weight, the S&P/ASX 200 index with a 7.5% weight and the FTSE China 50 index with a 5% weight.

If the basket finishes above the step-up value, 115% of the initial value, the payout at maturity will be par plus 1.49 times the return of the basket.

If the basket return is zero or positive but the basket finishes at or below the step-up value, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment of 15%.

Investors will be fully exposed to any basket decline.
