Nomura Asset Management (NAM), the core company within the Investment Management Division of Nomura Group, plans to offer an alternative investment solution named Nomura Alternative Connect (NAC). The service, which will provide access to global alternative investment products, is scheduled to start in the fiscal year ending March 2025.

In recent years, investors’ need for alternative investments has grown rapidly across the globe, and this trend is expected to continue. Through NAC, NAM will provide a consolidated, one-stop opportunity to invest in funds offered by the world’s leading alternative management companies (“NAC partners”), leveraging NAM’s insights gained from providing a broad range of alternative investment products.

This will allow investors to construct a diversified portfolio while receiving guidance on various asset classes (private equity, private debt, infrastructure, real estate), geographies (Global, North America, Europe, etc.), investment strategies, risk appetite/tolerance, and investment patterns (single funds, funds of funds and other fund structures, liquidity, administrative management, etc.).

The following asset managers have been identified as potential partners:

By providing advanced asset management services through NAC, NAM will contribute to the Japanese government’s efforts to make Japan a leading asset management center.
