Japan's Nomura Committed to Growth of US Business, CEO Says

Chief Executive Kentaro Okuda attends a news conference in Tokyo, Japan May 17, TOKYO, May 30 (Reuters) – Nomura Holdings 8604.T, Japan's largest investment bank and brokerage, is committed to growing its business in the United States despite recent market volatility, its chief executive said on Friday. The announcement of sweeping tariffs in April triggered market turbulence and led some investors to sell down U.S. assets as they question U.S. financial dominance and safety. 'Although America can be said to be the epicenter of the market volatility surrounding global tariff negotiations, the U.S. is the most important area rich in business opportunities,' CEO Kentaro Okuda said at an investor relations event in Tokyo. The U.S. market accounted for 14% of Nomura's income before income taxes in the year ended March 2025, according to an investor relations presentation. Nomura's management has long sought to establish the bank as a global player and in April announced the acquisition of Australian Macquarie Group's U.S. and European public asset management businesses for $1.8 billion – its largest ever. But some previous acquisitions have had mixed results, such as the purchase of some assets from Lehman Brothers in 2008, which it later wrote down. While the U.S. market will remain attractive over the long term, Nomura can benefit from any moves away from U.S. assets, Christopher Willcox, head of wholesale and chairman of the asset management division, said at the event. 'We think that the dominance of the U.S. market over the last few years is unhealthy and a rebalancing towards focusing on Europe and Asia is a good thing,' Willcox said. 'We run a global business so that's fine,' Willcox added.

US-China Trade Truce Spurs Rush to Beat Tariffs
A big shift in regional trade is underway following US President Donald Trump's announcement – and temporary pause – of the so called 'Liberation Day' tariffs. Exports from Southeast Asia are surging, as companies around the world frontload and reroute shipments of parts and final goods such as toys and smartphones. Which countries are benefiting the most from this demand and the intensifying strategy of 'China+1', how long will these high export levels be maintained, and what are the risks for consumers and companies? Katia Dmitrieva speaks with Robert Subbaraman, head of global macro research at Nomura, about the latest on the trade front.

Nomura's smoking ban leads to less staff lighting up
Nomura's drive to cut the smoking rate among its staff is bearing fruit, pushing the firm closer to its goal of improving health among its employees. Close to 15% of staff at Japan's largest brokerage were smokers in the fiscal year ended March 2024, down from 21.4% as of March 2018, according to an investor presentation that included details on its other health management initiatives. Nomura, which has more than 14,000 employees in Japan, had set a target to reduce the smoking rate to 12% by March 2026. Nomura's health and productivity management goals for staff include promoting walking habits. It has also introduced subsidies for egg-freezing services starting in April, to give female employees more options to plan their lives and careers, the firm said in its presentation. The firm, which has been providing financial aid since 2017 to help workers quit smoking, asked staff during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 not to smoke while working, even at home. However, the rules were based on mutual trust and didn't include a punitive clause. It also removed smoking rooms from its offices, and encouraged staff who light up during their lunch break not to return to the office within 45 minutes of smoking. The lower smoking rate at Nomura reflects a larger national decline in Japan and other developed markets, as people become more aware about health risks linked with cigarettes. The government aims to have only 12% of people age 20 or older still smoke by 2033, according to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare website. More than 15% of Japanese adults were smokers as of 2024, according to a survey by the ministry last year.
