- Q.
-
I will ask you about the arrest of a former employee of Nomura Securities, Co., Ltd. on suspicion of attempted robbery and murder and arson. Regarding this case, there is a suspicion that the suspect had talked about an investment scheme to the husband and wife victims and had them prepare a large amount of money in advance. What do you think of such malicious intentions taking advantage of the status as an employee of a securities company? If there is any policy for Financial Services Agency(FSA)’s measures against the company, could you also explain that?
- A.
-
I may have said this earlier, but I will refrain from making any comments on individual cases. However, I know that Nomura Securities, Co., Ltd. published its responses to the case you mentioned on November 6, and that specific measures are described therein.
I think it important for the company to implement those measures with surety, and the FSA will closely watch and confirm that process.
- Q.
-
One more thing regarding Nomura Securities, Co. Ltd. Is it correct that the FSA has issued an order to request reporting to the company?
- A.
-
I have not made any comments specifically regarding the FSA's responses to individual cases.
