Takaki Nakanishi, head of Asia-Pacific automotive research at Bank of America Corp.’s Merrill Lynch, is departing the firm, two people familiar with the matter said.

Nakanishi, 50, will be leaving this month, said the people, asking not to be identified because the departure hasn’t been disclosed externally. Kei Nihonyanagi, formerly at Barclays Plc, was hired in April to replace Nakanishi, the people said.
