"Nomura's mission is to enrich the nation through the securities business.This is something we must

absolutely see through." (Empirical Research on Investment Trusts, compiled by Nomura Securities Research Department)

Principle of Putting the Customer First

"Principle of Putting the Customer First

We must place our customers' interests before our own."

(100th edition of Osaka Nomura Business News)

Entrepreneurial Spirit

"If, as an entrepreneur, you can determine something to a 70% certitude, you must have the courage to take up the challenge even though some uncertainty remains." (Capital Market Research)

Human Resources

"Nomura underscores the fact that the development of human resources, acquisition of talented personnel and ability to match the right talent with the most appropriate position are more formidable assets than sheer capital strength." ("Tsutakatsura")

Global Ambition

"Nomura is destined to become an active player on the international stage."

("Looking Back at My Life", by Tsunao Okumura)

Emphasis on Team Work

"It is the management's task to see that Nomura employees take responsibility and pride in their work and to form a unified team under the control of branch office managers." ("Tsutakatsura")

Business Development Frame of Mind

"We have a duty to research scientifically the intrinsic nature of all securities." ("Tsutakatsura")

"We must have the courage to boldly follow the path of our convictions." ("Tsutakatsura")

Staying One Step Ahead

"Always strive to stay one step ahead. Standing still is retrogressive."

Customer Service Mindset

"If you conduct your work in a mechanical manner, believing simply that your role is over once the deal is done, there is no use in drawing on the strengths of those around you." ("Tsutakatsura")
