      [Part I appeared in Comment. Math. Helv. 74, 53-62 (1999). See also \textit{L. A. Florit}, Math. Ann. 298, 187-192 (1994; Zbl 0810.53011); Math. Z. 225, 685-690 (1997).] In this article, we continue to study the splitting phenomenon for nonpositively curved Euclidean submanifolds with small codimension and large relative nullity index. The main theorem states that a nonpositively curved Euclidean submanifold \(M^n\) of codimension \(p\) with relative nullity \(\nu= n-2p+1\) is either locally isometric to the product of \(p-2\) hypersurfaces and a codimension 2 submanifold, or is the composition of a flat hypersurface of dimension \(n+p-1\) with the product of \(p-1\) hypersurfaces.
