For purposes of computing these ratios:

• fixed charges, excluding interest on deposits, represent interest (including capitalized interest), estimated interest within rent, and amortization of debt issuance costs;

• fixed charges, including interest on deposits, represent all interest; and

• preferred dividends include dividends from preferred shares and other equity instruments.

• On November 1, 2023, the Bank adopted IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts, which replaces IFRS 4, the previous accounting standard for insurance contracts. The Bank adopted IFRS 17 on a retrospective basis, restating the results from the transition date of November 1, 2022. Accordingly, results for fiscal 2023 have been restated to reflect the IFRS 17 basis of accounting for insurance contracts. Results for periods prior to November 1, 2022 continue to be presented under the IFRS 4 basis of accounting and have not been restated.
