Learn more Capital Markets in Barclays Investment Banking in Japan
I'm part of the Debt Capital Markets team within our Investment Banking division – a specialist team that focuses on originating and executing cross-border financing transactions, such as international bonds from Japanese issuer clients. The work we do is fast-paced but there's also a strong emphasis on developing long-term client relationships.
In light of the increasingly globalised economy, financing through international capital markets has become a strategically important challenge for Japanese companies. To achieve their potential, they need an investment banking partner who understands both the markets and their own commercial objectives.
