Matthew Parker-Jones
SVP for Global Transaction Banking at Scotiabank
Matthew Parker-Jones is Senior Vice President for Global Transaction Banking (GTB) at Scotiabank.
With longstanding experience in financial services, primarily in the payments sector, Matthew brings a wealth of knowledge from his previous roles at global institutions like JPMorgan Chase.
Payments always stood out as a keen point of interest for Matthew throughout his career. “What I love about payments is – unlike many other segments in banking which are often complex and daunting – payments is something very personal, and is democratised and accessible to all.”
Now at Scotiabank, his mission is clear: to transform the bank's payments and transaction banking business, positioning it at the forefront of financial innovation.
“I joined Scotiabank in the spring of 2023 to lead the efforts of our payments and transaction banking business,” Matthew explains.
“I've been able to leverage a lot of my experiences from global banks to help in this transformation journey at Scotiabank, by bringing new ideas, partnering with fintechs and helping drive the bank forward from an innovation and growth standpoint.”
Matthew’s work to drive transaction banking innovation at Scotiabank has been propelled by the organisation’s unique position – it is present in over 25 markets
“Scotiabank is a multinational bank with headquarters in Canada,” notes Matthew.
This global presence allows Scotiabank to offer a comprehensive suite of transaction banking services to businesses of all sizes across diverse markets. From small coffee shops managing their daily cash flow, to multinational corporations orchestrating complex supply chain financing, Scotiabank’s GTB division has a solution for each client segment.
Notwithstanding its existing advantage, Scotiabank has reinforced its position as a leader in GTB innovation by continuing to invest in four key areas: ensuring marketing-leading products across geographies, connectivity across client channels, client-focused sales and improving services and operations.
By continuing to scale in these areas, Scotiabank is strategically strengthening the foundations in the GTB space.
