A pedestrian walks past illuminated signage for Nomura Securities Co., a unit of Nomura Holdings Inc in Tokyo, Japan. Nomura Holdings, Japan's largest brokerage and investment bank, reported a 195% jump in first-quarter profit on Tuesday as the rally in global markets and return of domestic inflation bolstered demand for its wealth management services. Nomura said net profit in the April-June period was 68.9 billion yen ($446 million) versus 23.3 billion yen a year earlier. Pre-tax income in the wealth management segment grew 84% compared to the same period the previous year to reach its highest since the 2015/16 financial year. Nomura has a dominant position in wealth management in Japan and the business accounted for roughly half its pre-tax profit in the previous financial year.

Signage for Nomura Holdings Inc. displayed outside a Nomura Securities Co. branch in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, April 24, 2023. Authorities in China have ordered a senior Nomura Holdings banker overseeing the firm's investment banking operations there not to leave the mainland, two sources with knowledge of the matter said. Charles Wang Zhonghe, China investment banking chairman at Nomura, is prohibited from travelling outside the mainland, said the sources, who sought anonymity as they were not authorised to speak to media. A Reuters analysis has found an apparent surge of court cases involving such bans in recent years, and foreign business lobbies are voicing concern about the trend. In August last year, he was also appointed as chairman of Nomura Orient International Securities, the bank's majority-owned securities business headquartered in the commercial hub of Shanghai.
