Scotia Capital understands the importance of securities lending to hedge fund managers. Therefore, Scotia Capital has built one of the largest and stable pools of North American equities for our clients to borrow. Although our greatest strengths lie in Canadian securities, Scotia Capital has access to US, European and Asian securities through our banking network and strong relationships with global custodial lenders.

Scotia Capital's team of securities lending professionals understands the importance of stock borrowing to hedge fund trading strategies. The Team works hard to minimise your borrow costs and protect you from recall by consistently reviewing your portfolio. Daily stock loan "colour" is also available to keep you informed of issues that may affect your loans.
