Investor Presentaiton

Scotiabank This document includes forward-looking statements about objectives, strategies and expected financial results. Such forward- looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties beyond the Bank's control, including, but not limited to, economic and financial conditions in Canada and globally, regulatory developments in Canada and elsewhere, technological developments and competition. A substantial amount of the Bank's business involves making loans or otherwise committing its resources to specific large companies, industries or in specific countries or areas of the world. Unforeseen events affecting such borrowers, industries or countries could have a material adverse effect on the Bank's financial results. These and other factors may cause the Bank's actual performance to differ materially from that contemplated by forward-looking statements, and the reader is therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. The information contained in this document should be read in conjunction with the more comprehensive information filed by the Bank with the Ontario Securities Commission and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Bank does not undertake to update any forward- looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Bank. 35
