Jarden Teams up with Nomura in Australia and New Zealand

Jarden, an independent investment and advisory firm, today announced its strategic alliance with global financial services group Nomura in Australia and New Zealand.

As detailed in the official announcement, under the new partnership, Jarden will provide clients with a full suite of market-leading services while Nomura will provide its global network, product capabilities and a strong balance sheet.

Both firms will continue to run standalone corporate advisory and capital markets businesses in Australia and New Zealand. Through the alliance, which will enable greater global reach, product expertise and capital commitment for clients of both firms, Jarden and Nomura seek to capitalize on changing competitor dynamics in Australia and New Zealand, and the chance to offer a differentiated service.

Commenting on this new collaboration, James Lee, Chief Executive Officer of Jarden Group, said: “Nomura is a trusted and respected firm with a history of almost 100 years. Both organizations are driven by our values, sharing an unwavering commitment to client needs and a focus on creating a sustainable future. We look forward to a long-standing relationship with Nomura.”

Andrew Macgonigal, Head of Investment Banking, Australia, Nomura, stated: “Nomura and Jarden have genuinely complementary businesses in Australia and New Zealand. An alliance of this nature is highly synergistic, as not only is there limited crossover of our existing businesses, but also strategic and cultural alignment. We are excited that this alliance will allow us to further increase Nomura’s relevance and reach across both new and existing clients, in addition to supporting the buildout of Jarden in Australia.”
