Nomura Holdings Inc. more than doubled pay for its top managers last fiscal year, as earnings at Japan’s largest brokerage rebounded on booming domestic markets.

Total compensation paid to the firm’s eight executive officers rose 150% in the year ended March 31 to 4.46 billion yen ($28.4 million), according to a recent notice for a planned annual shareholders general meeting next month.
