HONG KONG, June 21 (Reuters) - Nomura Holdings, Japan's biggest brokerage, promoted Mark Williams to head of investment banking in Asia excluding-Japan, according to a memo seen by Reuters on Thursday.
Williams, who joined Nomura in 2010 from UBS, succeeds veteran banker Patrick Schmitz-Morkramer, who is retiring from the company after spending 13 years at Nomura and Lehman Brothers, according to the memo. Zhizhong Yang will remain chairman of investment banking in Asia ex-Japan.
Nomura has worked on two of the largest equity capital markets deals in Asia Pacific this year, including the $600 million initial public offering for a property fund of Tesco Plc's Thai unit in March and the $1.7 billion Hong Kong listing of Haitong Securities Co Ltd in April.
