Nomura Holdings Inc. has begun assessing the cause of the possible loss tied to a U.S. client and it’s too early to say how it might impact profit, an executive said.

The executive, who asked not to be identified, spoke a day after Japan’s biggest brokerage warned that it faces a “significant” potential loss stemming from transactions with the client, which Bloomberg has identified as Bill Hwang’s Archegos Capital Management.
