Nomura to Launch First Cross-listing ETFs in Japan & Taiwan

Nomura Asset Management Co., Ltd., the core company within the Investment Management Division of Nomura Group, and Nomura Asset Management Taiwan Ltd. announced plans to launch new ETFs on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) and the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) on September 18, 2025.

This will be the first cross-listing of ETFs in Japan and Taiwan and will provide clients in Japan and in Taiwan mutual access to each capital market easily, diversifying and expanding investment opportunities.

Nomura Asset Management will launch a new ETF named “NEXT FUNDS TIP FactSet Taiwan Innovative Technology 50 Index Exchange Traded Fund (Code: 412A, nickname: NF Taiwan Tech 50 ETF)” in Japan. The ETF was approved for listing by the TSE on September 18, 2025.

The Index that this new ETF tracks selects companies that generate the majority of their revenues from the technology sector and pass liquidity tests, as well as standards for size and information disclosure. The index further selects eligible stocks based on indicators such as R&D innovation, stock price momentum, and profitability, and then selects the top 50 stocks according to their market capitalization. The index reflects the performance of a portfolio that invests in the constantly innovating technology sector.

Simultaneously, Nomura Asset Management Taiwan will launch a new ETF named “NEXT FUNDS – Nomura TOPIX Feeder ETF” (Code:009812) designed to track the performance of the TOPIX in Taiwan, providing clients in Taiwan with access to the TOPIX ETF, the largest ETF in Japan, managed by Nomura Asset Management.

Nomura Asset Management, one of Japan’s largest asset management companies, listed its first ETF in Japan in May 1995. As of the end of July 2025, the company manages over JPY 40 trillion (US$265billion5 ) in ETFs, making it the dominant player in Japan’s ETF market with a 43% market share by AUM, and the largest in Asia .

The company remains committed to promoting and developing ETFs to enhance asset management for global investors.
