Based on my in-depth review of the available information, I could not find any confirmation that Nomura Asset Management provides a free demo account for retail traders. From my perspective as someone who values the opportunity to test platforms and strategies before committing real funds, the absence of clear evidence regarding a demo account is something I approach cautiously. In the context of forex and asset management, demo accounts are a standard tool for both beginners and experienced traders to evaluate execution, platform features, and overall compatibility without financial risk. Nomura Asset Management appears to focus more on professional investment services such as institutional investment management and investment trusts, rather than direct retail trading through self-directed accounts. Their retail forex services exist, but specifics about trading platforms or demo account functionality—like time limits or usage restrictions—are not detailed in the information I could access. In my experience, if a broker offers a demo account, they usually make this a prominent feature. The lack of such mention for Nomura signals to me either a limited offering to retail forex traders, or that the primary clientele is not individual self-directed retail traders seeking standard demo access. Out of caution, I would advise anyone considering Nomura for retail FX to directly contact their support for up-to-date details before making any decisions or financial commitments.
