(6) Segment Information – Operating Segment

Nomura’s Chief Operating Decision Maker is the Executive Management Board (the “EMB”) which is the management function primarily responsible for assessing performance of and allocating resources to the business segments. The EMB reviews business segment results including Net revenue, Non-interest expenses, and Income before income taxes on a regular basis. The EMB uses these measures along with certain segment-specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and budgets to evaluate segment performance and to make key operating decisions, including resource and capital allocations. Business segments’ information on total assets is not disclosed as EMB does not consider such information for its operating decisions and therefore, it is not reported.
