Pa­zos added,“Our suc­cess this year is not just about what we have de­liv­ered, but al­so how we have de­liv­ered, and this is at­trib­ut­able to the pas­sion of our em­ploy­ees and their com­mit­ment to mak­ing it eas­i­er for clients to do busi­ness with us. I thank our strong, re­silient team of Sco­tia­bankers for their ded­i­ca­tion.”
