Canada bank offers global services

Scotiabank's financial services roots date back to Nova Scotia's trans-Atlantic trading business in the early 19th-century. The Canada bank expanded wherever its customers traded. By the turn of the century, Scotiabank — known as Bank of Nova Scotia in Canada — had 38 branches across Canada, the United States and Jamaica. The bank continued to expand in the early 1900s, opening branches in Cuba, Puerto Rico, England and the Dominican Republic.

Now, Scotiabank has more than 12.5 million customers in 50 countries around the globe:

• North America
• Central and South America
• Europe and the Middle East

Scotiabank holds more than $500 billion in assets and reported $22.31 billion in revenue in 2008. It is the third-largest bank in Canada, ranked by deposits and market capitalization. The financial services firm holds the No. 92 spot on the Forbes Global 2000 list. Scotiabank has 69,000 employees.

A bank for every customer

The Canada bank has built its business around risk management, cost control, diversification, customer service and quality employees. Scotiabank's mission is to help customers improve their financial standing. To that end, the Canada bank recently added Scotia iTrade, a trading brokerage for self-directed investors.
