New Issue: Scotia sells $13.03 million buffer autocallable gears linked to basket

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 16 – Bank of Nova Scotia priced $13.03 million of 0% buffer autocallable gears due May 17, 2028 linked to an unequally 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 Nikkei Stock Average with a 25% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 17.5% weight, the Swiss Market index with a 10% weight and the S&P/ASX 200 index with a 7.5% weight.

If the basket finishes at or above its initial level on May 20, 2024, the notes will be automatically called at par of $10 plus 8%.

If the notes are not called and the basket finishes above its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus 2.7327 times the basket gain.

Investors will receive par if the basket declines by 20% or less and lose 1% for every 1% that the basket declines beyond 20%.

Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. is the agent. UBS Financial Services Inc. is the selling agent.
