Nomura Holdings Inc , Japan's biggest brokerage and investment bank, reported an 11% rise in quarterly net profit on Wednesday, as a partial stake sale in an affiliate offset a slump in investment banking.

Kitamura said the company would stick to its strategy of beefing up its investment banking business, however.
