Nomura FX success in Euromoney poll

The Euromoney FX poll is the benchmark survey for the FX industry, providing the largest and most comprehensive picture of the global FX market place.

Nomura has maintained its positive momentum in the annual Euromoney FX survey by ranking 14th place in overall market share, up from 18th last year and 57th in the 2009 survey. Nomura FX continues to position itself as the number one Japanese FX house and has more than doubled its lead against its nearest Japanese competitor.

Nomura was also recognised at the Euromoney Awards dinner last week, where Nomura FX was presented with two major awards as the Most Improved Overall Market Share (by volumes) and Most Improved Market Share in Western Europe (by volumes). In an email, Richard Gladwin, Global Head of Foreign Exchange and David Steck, Global Head of Foreign Exchange Sales, said: "This is a record performance for our business and represents a significant improvement in our headline market share. These awards are independent proof of the quality of the vibrant, global FX business that we are building".
