The transaction, valued at US$1.8 billion, adds approximately US$166 billion in retail and institutional client assets as of October 31, 2025, spanning equities, fixed income, and multi-asset strategies under Nomura’s global Nomura Asset Management brand.

As outlined in April 2025, Nomura plans to integrate its private markets business, Nomura Capital Management (NCM), and its high-yield business, Nomura Corporate Research and Asset Management (NCRAM), with the newly acquired assets to form Nomura Asset Management International, a key part of Nomura Asset Management.

Kentaro Okuda, Nomura’s President and Group CEO, highlighted the significance of the acquisition: “The successful close of this transaction marks a significant step towards our 2030 Management Vision, boosting our assets under management and diversifying and strengthening our platform.”

The newly formed Nomura Asset Management International will have headquarters in New York and Philadelphia. Shawn Lytle, former Head of Americas at Macquarie, will serve as CEO, while Robert Stark, currently CEO of Nomura Capital Management, will assume the role of President and Deputy CEO. Lytle will report functionally to Yoshihiro Namura, Head of Nomura’s Investment Management Division, and to Satoshi Kawamura, CEO and President of Nomura Holding America Inc., from an entity perspective.

Chris Willcox, Chairman of Nomura’s Investment Management Division and Head of Wholesale, expressed enthusiasm for the integration: “We’re delighted to have completed this acquisition ahead of schedule and to welcome our new colleagues from Macquarie Asset Management.”

The transaction also formalizes a strategic partnership between Nomura and Macquarie for product distribution and co-development of investment strategies. Under this agreement, Nomura will distribute select Macquarie private funds to U.S. high-net-worth and family office clients and collaborate on innovative investment solutions for clients in both the U.S. and Japan.

Shawn Lytle emphasized the potential of the combined business: “We now have an exciting opportunity to build on the combined strengths of the new business and grow the franchise globally.”
