Interest is accrued daily on your GIC from the issue date up to, but not including, the maturity date. Also, interest will be paid/compounded for the leap day in a leap year. Where an actual interest rate is disclosed, it is an annual interest rate if held to maturity.
The Bank of Nova Scotia, Scotia Mortgage Corporation, Montreal Trust Company, and National Trust Company each issue these Special Rate GICs. We reserve the right to change, extend or cancel these offers at any time without prior notice. A $500 minimum investment is required. A maximum investment of $5,000,000 per customer.
Special Rate GICs: GIC special rates apply only to non-redeemable GICs with the associated terms shown above and are not applicable to other GICs. This is the annual interest rate if held to maturity. These Special Rate GICs are available within registered, non-registered and TFSA portfolios. Interest is accrued daily on your GIC from the issue date up to, but not including, the maturity date. Also, interest will be paid / compounded for the leap day in a leap year.

If the maturity date does not fall on a business day then the term of the GIC will be extended to the next business day and interest will be paid to that day. These Special Rate GIC offers are not to be used in conjunction with any other rate bonus or discretionary offers.
