An incident like this must never happen at a financial institution entrusted with looking after its clients’ assets. To reassure our clients and regain their trust, we have introduced new pre-approval rules governing visits by Wealth Management employees to clients’ homes for the foreseeable future. We are also tightening rules around the monitoring of employee movements to ensure more robust and effective oversight. In addition, we will introduce block leave where employees must be absent from the workplace for a certain period of time to detect any wrongdoing, implement stricter evaluation of employee compliance and conduct, and carry out training to foster professional ethics. To respond better to the situation on the ground, we sent a Senior Managing Director in charge of Wealth Management Retail Strategy to work out of our Hiroshima Branch Office from yesterday. We remain committed to reinforcing our client-centric approach to create an environment where clients can have peace of mind when working with us.” In 2024 November – Nomura Japan Government Bond Futures Manipulation: Nomura paid $142,000 fine, and trader who manipulated the market had left Nomura.
