BNS The Bank of Nova Scotia
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) Institutional Ownership
What the institutions did with BNS last quarter, from their 13F filings. Counting managers rather than shares is the point: a single index fund adding to a position tells you far less than four hundred separate managers all deciding to. Positions as reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Every manager below opens. Subscribers can see any firm's whole portfolio — every position, its weight, and what they bought, trimmed and exited last quarter.

13F filings are due 45 days after quarter end and cover long positions in U.S.-listed equities only, so this is a lagged and partial picture: shorts, bonds and foreign listings never appear. Options positions are excluded here rather than folded into the share counts. Political ownership is coming.
