Prior to joining Nomura, Arndt worked at Goldman Sachs for 14 years, spending seven years in the investment banking division and seven years in equities, most recently as head of corporate access in the US. She earned a BA with honours from the University of Pennsylvania and graduated first in her MBA class at Columbia University.

The Nomura US corporate access team complements the company's existing teams in Japan, Asia and Europe, comprising over 80 professionals.
