have entered a pact to serve high net worth Japanese clients.

Mizuho will be able to provide “more advanced and fully-fledged” wealth management services to Japanese HNW clients by using Lombard Odier’s network and expertise, the firms said in a statement yesterday.

The Japanese and Swiss firms will also swap employees and allow Mizuho employees to take part in Lombard Odier's training programmes.

In 2021 Mizuho launched “Mizuho Connected Services,” a membership service for its ultra-HNW clients which provides a “one-stop” service.

The alliance builds on an existing relationship between firms’ respective Singapore subsidiaries Mizuho Securities (Singapore) Pte Ltd and Lombard Odier (Singapore) Ltd, which was forged in 2018.
