On May 19, 2021, Nomura Holdings and American Century Investments® celebrated its five-year anniversary. The strategic partnership continues to expand the opportunities for each firm to reach new clients and provide a broader range of solutions to serve our investors’ strategic interests.
Founded in 1925, Nomura is a global financial services group with an integrated network spanning over 30 countries. By connecting markets East & West, Nomura services the needs of individuals, institutions, corporates and governments through their three business divisions: Retail, Wholesale (Global Markets, Investment Banking and International Wealth Management) and Investment Management.
Driven by the insights of some 27,000 people worldwide, Nomura puts their clients at the center of everything they do, delivering unparalleled access to, from and within Asia.
Given the minimal overlap between American Century Investments' and Nomura's products and regional coverage, this thoughtful collaboration supports both firms' efforts to further diversify business interests globally and share our investment expertise for clients around the world. This includes leveraging Nomura's connections in Japan and Asia and American Century Investments' in the U.S.
Building long-lasting client relationships and our dedication to delivering superior performance are key priorities for both American Century and Nomura. Whether designing tailored strategies or providing a comprehensive range of solutions and insights, we share a mandate to offer investments that align with our clients' needs.
James E. Stowers Jr., founder of American Century Investments, often said "If we help others become successful, they, in turn, will make us successful." This belief is similar to the founder of Nomura's "putting the customer first," and demonstrates our common values.
