a**i 发帖数: 608 | 1 Nomura Cuts Up to 30% of Investment Bank Jobs
By CNBC | CNBC – Thu, Sep 20, 2012 7:41 AM EDT.. .
Nomura is making wide-ranging cuts in its European investment banking
division, according to sources, with up to 30 percent of jobs likely to go.
The cuts were confirmed by at least three sources, who spoke to CNBC on
condition of anonymity.
"Today is D-day, there is a crazy atmosphere, everybody knows it is going to
be big," one source told CNBC.
Nomura (NMR) declined to comment on the job losses.
The cuts include 30 percent of the industry team and the bank is closing its
Swiss coverage, according to a source inside the bank.
A source at the bank said the cuts are part of a move, announced earlier
this month, to slash costs by $1 billion, mainly in its equities and
investment banking units at its overseas operations.
Operations in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa will account for 45
percent of cost savings, the bank said, while units in the Americas will see
costs cut of 21 percent, Asia-outside Japan will see cuts of 18 percent and
Japanese operations will see cuts of 16 percent.
The firm has been struggling to achieve top-tier global investment bank
status since it bought the European and Asian operations of Lehman Brothers
in 2008.
Earlier this year, the firm reported net profit in the April-to-June quarter
of 1.89 billon yen ($24.19 million), an 89.4 percent drop from a year
earlier. That was despite a 12 percent jump in revenue.
"Banks are increasingly seeing that they have to deleverage and have to exit
certain businesses as a whole as a results of this. There's no longer going
to be the excuse that 'we made a lot of money at a certain point in the
cycle,' " Edmund Shing, head of European equity strategy at Barclays Capital
, told CNBC on Thursday.
Nomura is just one of several large banks taking an axe to costs in an
effort to strengthen itself against a slackening global economy and more
regulation. Bank of America (BAC) announced plans to cut 16,000 jobs by year
end as it speeds up a company-wide cost-cutting initiative amid declining
revenues, according to The Wall Street Journal. Deutsche Bank announced last
week it aims for 3.6 billion pounds ($5.8 billion) in annual savings by
2015 to survive in a less profitable investment banking world.
