Our Scotiatrust Indigenous Trusts National Centre of Expertise based in Calgary has national reach, and so do our Indigenous Trusts Relationship Teams located in Scotia Wealth Management offices throughout Canada. Our purpose is to protect and grow communities’ wealth for the long-term benefit of current and future generations, in a way that respects their vision, values and traditions. Our growing team works in a collaborative, inclusive and relationship-focused way with the communities we serve, internal and external partners and our colleagues, to expertly deliver on our service commitments.
