From my direct experience with regulated brokers like Nomura Asset Management, which operates under Japan’s Financial Services Agency oversight, the document requirements for initial withdrawals are generally strict to ensure regulatory compliance and protect clients. Although the specific documentation process isn’t detailed in the provided information, based on industry standards—especially for a firm with a retail forex license in Japan—I typically must provide proof of identity, such as a government-issued photo ID (passport or driver’s license), and proof of address, often in the form of a recent utility bill or bank statement. This conservative approach helps prevent identity theft, money laundering, and other illicit activities. Providing these documents is standard procedure, and while it can take extra time, I believe this process adds a layer of safety for both parties. Since Nomura Asset Management emphasizes transparency and has a strong risk management index, in my experience, their customer support should guide clients step-by-step if clarification is needed. I always recommend ensuring all documents are clear, up-to-date, and match the account registration details. If unsure, I find it safest to reach out directly to their official support channels to confirm requirements. This careful documentation safeguard is an industry best practice, especially with highly regulated institutions, and, for me, contributes to greater trust and reliability when withdrawing funds.
