Bank of Nova Scotia said Wednesday that it has completed a comprehensive upgrade to thousands of automated banking machines (ABMs) across Canada, offering customers enhanced access to safe and easy-to-use banking services.

The multi-year investment upgraded approximately 2,600 ABMs across the country, offering improved access for individuals with disabilities, enhanced security and new transaction features.

The new state-of-the-art Wincor Nixdorf ABMs include larger screens and the latest processor technology for fast and effective service.

Every Scotiabank (TSX:BNS) branch in Canada will have at least one ABM with full access for customers who are visually impaired and those with restricted mobility.

The cross-country upgrade follows Scotiabank’s recent deployment of nearly 500 Scotiabank-branded ABMs in 7-Eleven convenience stores across the country.
