FYI: Another Japanese giant may soon buy into the U.S. mutual fund
business, this time on the West Coast. Nippon Life Insurance is in talks to buy a 20 to 30 percent
stake in Los Angeles-based TCW from Carlye Group, Nikkei
Asian Review, Pensions & Investments, and Reuters all report. And the Wall Street Journal reports that the bidders also include Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group.
