Nomura’s market risk-weighted assets (RWAs) surged by 12.8% in the three months to end-June, driven by yen depreciation and heightened default risk in its acquisition and leveraged finance unit, and securitised products.

Market RWAs reached ¥7.2 trillion ($47.8 billion) on June 30, up from ¥6.4 trillion three months earlier. This surpassed the previous record of ¥7.1 trillion set by the lender in December 2022, marking the highest level since at least 2017.
