Additional Tier 1 Capital Notes (NVCC) [member] |
Statement [Line Items] |
Summary of Classes of Preferred and Common Shares Outstanding | The AT1 Notes and LRCNs are compound financial instruments that have both equity and liability features. On the date of issuance, we assigned an insignificant value to the liability components of both types of instruments and, as a result, the full amount of proceeds has been classified as equity and forms part of our additional Tier 1 NVCC. Distributions on the AT1 Notes and LRCNs are recognized as a reduction in equity when payable. The AT1 Notes and LRCNs are subordinate to the claims of the depositors and certain other creditors in right of payment. The following table shows the details of our AT1 Notes and LRCNs as at October 31, 2025 and 2024.

| (1) | Non-cumulative interest is payable semi-annually in arrears, at the bank’s discretion. The notes had an initial interest rate of 4.800% and reset on August 25, 2024 to 6.709%.
| (2) | The notes are redeemable at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest, in whole or in part, at our option on any interest payment date on or after the first interest reset date or following certain regulatory or tax events. The bank may, at any time, purchase the notes at any price in the open market.
| (3) | The notes issued include a NVCC provision, which is necessary for the notes to qualify as regulatory capital under Basel III. Refer to the Non-Viability Contingent Capital paragraph below for details.
| (4) | Non-deferrable interest is payable semi-annually on the LRCNs, Series 1, Series 2 and Series 3 and quarterly on the LRCNs, Series 4, Series 5 and Series 6, at the bank’s discretion. Non-payment of interest will result in a recourse event, with the noteholders’ sole remedy being their proportionate share of trust assets, which comprise our NVCC Preferred Shares Series 48 for LRCNs, Series 1, Preferred Shares Series 49 for LRCNs, Series 2, Preferred Shares Series 51 for LRCNs, Series 3, Preferred Shares Series 53 for LRCNs, Series 4, Preferred Shares Series 54 for LRCNs, Series 5 and Preferred Shares Series 55 for LRCNs, Series 6. In such an event, the delivery of the trust assets will represent the full and complete extinguishment of our obligations under the LRCNs. In circumstances under which NVCC, including the Preferred Shares Series 48, Series 49, Series 51, Series 53, Series 54 and Series 55 for LRCNs, Series 1, Series 2, Series 3, Series 4, Series 5 and Series 6, respectively, would be converted into common shares of the bank (as described below), the LRCNs would be redeemed, with the noteholders’ sole remedy being their proportionate share of trust assets, which comprise common shares of the bank received by the trust on conversion.
