Who We Are
Established in 1987 and based in New York City, Nippon Life Global Investors Americas, Inc. (“NLGIA”) is wholly owned by Nippon Life Insurance Company in Japan (“Nippon Life”). NLGIA was formed for the sole purpose of providing investment advisory services to Nippon Life and its affiliates. NLGIA has been registered with the SEC as an investment adviser since 2012.
* Registration with the SEC does not imply that NLGIA or any person associated with NLGIA has achieved a certain level of skill or training.

Our five US investment teams are dedicated to upholding our commitments to Nippon Life Group and its policy holders, including achieving a relatively high income return over the medium-to-long term. Nippon Life is one of the few companies in Japan that has integrated sustainability factors for all its assets — a rare and unique approach that differentiates it from many of its peers. Similarly, NLGIA prioritizes sustainability as the core of all aspects of our strategy and operations.
NLGIA’s clear mission and vision are guided by our core values of sincerity, conviction and endeavor in serving employees, clients, and the broader community. We strive to establish deep relationships built on trust and respect, and we possess a steadfast commitment to providing strong performance while exhibiting a high degree of integrity.
