Nomura Research Institute acquires Anshin Software

Nomura Research Institute Ltd, a leading provider of consulting services and system solutions, has announced the acquisition of Anshin Software Pvt Ltd (Anshinsoft), an IT consulting and software development company based in India. This investment secures offshore development locations and enhances global operational support for NRI's financial solutions.

Over the last 10 years, Anshinsoft has supported the development and maintenance of NRI's I-STAR/GV product, a back-office solution in the securities business. I-STAR/GV offers scalability for a dramatically changing business environment by providing real-time position management across global operations, consolidated management of client accounts and a cross-check for intra-office data to broker-dealers.

"NRI and Anshinsoft have a longstanding relationship and this is the natural next step in our partnership," said Shin Kusunoki, Corporate Senior Vice President and Asset Management Systems Division Manager, NRI. "This acquisition truly complements our existing solutions. It is important that we continue to expand our business through multiple channels and enhance our services for clients across the globe."
