ScotiaMcLeod was originally formed as a partnership in February 1921 by four young
entrepreneurs: Donald Ivan McLeod, William Ewart Young, James Gordon Weir and John Henry Ratcliffe. The foundation laid by these men was rooted in trust, financial expertise and innovation - strengths that have prevailed ever since.
By the 1970s, McLeod, Young, and Weir diversified to offer a full range of investment services including bond, stock and money market trading, corporate and government finance, mergers and acquisitions, commodities and futures, personal investment services, and mutual funds.
In 1987, the Bank of Nova Scotia purchased McLeod, Young, and Weir having identified it as one of the most established and respected firms in the industry. Today, ScotiaMcLeod is the investment arm of Scotiabank, and a division of Scotia Capital Inc.
Scotiabank is one of Canada's largest financial organizations with over $280 billion in assets. Scotia Capital is a proven corporate and investment banking leader, and contributes to making the Scotiabank Group one of North America's premier financial institutions and Canada's most international bank.
