TL;DR
The 2024 NISA reform turned Japan’s household tax-free investment account into a permanent asset-building regime. FSA’s NISA site says the new system started in January 2024 and became permanent. The official guidebook frames two usable buckets: a tsumitate investment quota and a growth investment quota, with combined annual investment capacity of 3.6 million yen and lifetime tax-free holding capacity of 18 million yen.
For FinWiki, NISA is a securities-distribution and household-asset-flow page. It connects retail brokers such as rakuten-securities, comprehensive securities firms such as nomura-hd, and bank-affiliated securities arms such as mizuho-securities and mufg-mums.
