Institutional securities broker-dealer and primary Treasury dealer with Asian and U.S. market focus
Daiwa Capital Markets America is a New York-based broker-dealer and primary dealer in U.S. Treasuries, serving institutional clients across equities, fixed income, and futures. The tech stack reflects a heavily regulated, infrastructure-first operation: Cisco and Palo Alto networking, Windows/Azure environments, and specialized middleware (IBM MQ, Informatica, Redwood) for trading workflows and risk management. Current project velocity centers on operational resilience—BCP testing, incident response, EGRC integration, and automated trading tools—while hiring pressure (accelerating, mostly senior-level) clusters in engineering and finance, suggesting investment in risk infrastructure and trading automation.
DCMA, incorporated in 1964, is a registered securities broker-dealer, futures commission merchant, and member of the NYSE and major U.S. exchanges. The firm operates as a subsidiary of Daiwa Securities Group Inc. and serves institutional customers through integrated financial services spanning Japanese, Asian, and U.S. equities; fixed income and financial futures; and investment banking. The organization manages complex regulatory, operational, and trading infrastructure across 201–500 employees in New York.
Daiwa uses Cisco (Catalyst, Nexus, Meraki, ASA), Palo Alto Networks, Azure, Windows Server/11, Informatica PowerCenter, IBM MQ, Docker, and Microsoft tools (Entra, Intune, Teams, Exchange, SharePoint, Power Automate). Python, SQL, and VBA support analytics and automation.
Priority projects include operational risk and EGRC system integration, BCP testing, incident response, system automation, automated trading workflows, and investor relations roadshows for Japanese, Asian, and U.S. companies.
