Proven trust across borders
Scotiabank is proud to have been named a winner of three 2026 Global Finance Treasury and Cash Management Awards for Latin America and the Caribbean:
- Best Bank for Transaction Banking, Latin America
- Best Bank for Payments, Latin America
- Best Bank for Collections, Latin America
These recognitions reflect what we've built deliberately over time: global strength, deep relationships in-region, and the stability clients rely on to keep business moving across the Americas.
What's Behind the Wins
With an on-the-ground presence in 12+ countries (including Mexico, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, and markets across the Caribbean) and connectivity through more than 60 correspondent banking networks, Scotiabank Global Transaction Banking (GTB) is uniquely positioned to support clients operating across borders.
Our approach combines the kind of regional expertise that only comes with time, alongside scalable, technology-driven solutions designed to simplify treasury operations and unlock value for clients at every stage of growth. Key capabilities include:
- Real-time cash visibility and control through ScotiaConnect®, our online banking platform
- Cross-border payment automation via ScotiaConnect Host-to-Host, enabling corporate clients to execute international payments without daily limits, now live across Uruguay, Chile, and Peru
- API-powered banking through ScotiaBusiness HUB, integrating trade finance and cash management directly into clients' ERP systems. Recognized by The Digital Banker as the Best API Initiative of the Year.
- Multibank treasury management with ScotiaBusiness BFM, giving corporate treasurers a consolidated, real-time view of balances and transactions across financial institutions, reducing up to four hours of daily manual work
- Open Banking readiness, with a consent management engine, developer portal, and regulatory API framework launched in Chile and expanding across the region
What This Means for Our Clients
In markets that move fast, stability isn't a given. It's built. For businesses operating across Latin America and the Caribbean, these awards are a reflection of the practical impact our solutions deliver every day: faster, more reliable cross-border payments, automated collections, and real-time liquidity management.
Whether a client is managing payroll across multiple markets, financing trade between Chile and Mexico, or seeking consolidated visibility into their cash position across the region, Scotiabank's footprint and digital capabilities provide the connectivity, control, and confidence they need.
Our clients have told us directly what sets us apart: closeness, responsiveness, and a genuine understanding of their operations. That kind of trust isn't built overnight. It's proven over time.
Building on Momentum
These wins build on a strong track record of industry recognition, including Euromoney's Canada's Best Transaction Bank, Best Corporate Card Solution from The Digital Banker as well as their Best Bank for Trade Finance Products Award in Mexico and Latin America. We've also won consecutive Global Finance awards for Payments and Collections in Latin America. Together, they reflect a consistent investment in innovation, regional infrastructure, and client-centric service.
Stability by design. Trust without borders.
