Japan Nomura Buys Macquarie United States & Europe Public Asset Management Business with $180 Billion AUM for $1.8 Billion via Acquisition of 3 Macquarie Companies, Nomura Investment Management AUM Increases from $590 Billion to $770 Billion with Acquisition
22nd April 2025 | Hong Kong
Japan Nomura has announced to buy Macquarie United States & Europe public asset management business with $180 billion AUM for $1.8 billion via acquisition of 3 Macquarie companies, with Nomura Investment Management AUM to increase from $590 billion to $770 billion with the acquisition. Announcement (22/4/25): “Nomura and Macquarie announced today that they have entered into an agreement for Nomura to acquire Macquarie’s U.S. and European public asset management business, with approximately US$180 billion in retail and institutional client assets across equities, fixed income and multi-asset strategies. Under the terms of the agreement, Nomura will acquire 100% of the stock of three companies (the “Target Companies”) that operate Macquarie’s U.S. and European public asset management business for an all-cash purchase price of US$1.8 billion (subject to closing adjustments). The transaction is targeted to close by the end of the calendar year, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Nomura has identified global asset management as a key strategic growth priority for the organization. Through this transaction, Nomura will significantly expand the global capabilities and client footprint of its Investment Management Division, which currently manages approximately US$590 billion in client assets. Upon completion, the total assets under management of Nomura’s Investment Management franchise are expected to increase to around US$770 billion, with more than 35% being managed on behalf of clients outside Japan. This acquisition will also provide Nomura with a scaled hub, headquartered in Philadelphia, to further grow its international Investment Management business. This high-operating margin business will bring well-established distribution networks in both retail and institutional segments. The business has a presence on nine of the top ten retail distribution platforms in the U.S., as well as strong institutional relationships, including within U.S. insurance, a growing sector for asset managers globally. With its origins in Delaware Investments, which was established in 1929 and acquired by Macquarie in 2010, the business has a long history of serving clients through actively managed strategies … …As part of the transaction, Nomura and Macquarie have agreed to collaborate on product and distribution opportunities, including Nomura being a U.S. wealth distribution partner for Macquarie Asset Management and providing continued access for U.S. wealth clients to Macquarie Asset Management’s Alternative investment capabilities. Additionally, Nomura has committed to providing seed capital for a range of Macquarie Asset Management’s Alternative funds tailored for U.S. wealth clients. A joint working group between Nomura and Macquarie will also be established to explore additional potential opportunities to create value for clients through further collaboration between the two organizations.”

Shawn Lytle, President of the Macquarie Funds and Head of Americas for Macquarie Group
The business is currently managed by a highly experienced team led by Shawn Lytle (President of the Macquarie Funds and Head of Americas for Macquarie Group). Shawn, alongside John Pickard, CIO Equities & Multi-Asset, Greg Gizzi, CIO Fixed Income, and Milissa Hutchinson, Head of U.S. Wealth, will continue to manage the business following the acquisition.
In partnership with this management team, Nomura plans to carry out several initiatives to support organic growth, increased AUM scale, and diversification of the business’s capability set post-acquisition. These initiatives – which will build upon the strengths of the business and aim to position the platform to continue to deliver strong, long-term investment performance – include:
• Developing new investment capabilities designed to meet the needs of clients
• Scaling the active ETF platform established by the business in mid-2023
• Investing in talent and data analytics to grow the distribution platform
• Leveraging the business’s existing distribution channels to provide its retail and institutional clients with access to the broader set of Nomura asset management capabilities
Kentaro Okuda, Nomura President & Group CEO:” This acquisition will align with our 2030 global growth and diversification ambitions to invest in stable, high margin businesses. It will be transformational for our Investment Management Division’s presence outside of Japan, adding significant scale in the U.S., strengthening our platform, and providing opportunities to build our public and private capabilities. We are delighted with the prospect of welcoming all 700-plus employees that will be joining the Nomura Group.”
Chris Willcox, Nomura’s Chairman of the Investment Management Division: “This transaction will accelerate the expansion of our global Investment Management business and will be a significant step in building a truly global franchise with a comprehensive set of solutions to serve investors worldwide.”
